It's not clear how public this hearing was or whether the proceedings 
were publicised beyond those present in the chamber at the time.

Karkaroff named Snape, remember and there is no evidence elsewhere in 
the books that anyone other than Dumbledore and those involved in the 
WW hearings knew his past before the end of GoF.

So perhaps Lucius simply did not know that Karkaroff was a traitor.
