Serious question.

A good question. I would have thought they could have found a nexus for prosecution somewhere more favorable

The case is handled in New York because the Southern District has jurisdiction over many international narcotics cases involving entry into the U.S., money laundering through New York financial systems, and related conspiracies. Maduro was flown to New York after his capture to face these charges in federal court there.

Was it because he was convicted by a federal court in New York?

I'd rather it be handled in Florida. SDNY has a worse reputation, AND history, than Charles Manson.

He was indicted in NY in 2020.
He was charged in 2020.
There was a federal bounty placed on him then.
The Biden DOJ upped the ante and raised that bounty to $50mm.
They are executing on that order.
