VERY IMPORTANT: FTX: The Top Liberal Crook got 25 Year Sentence & ordered to pay $11 billion!

(:E-:N-:R-AZ:C-30:V)   

[This is well worth revisiting. The Liberal Sam Bankman-Fried's trial concluded in March 2024, with him being sentenced to 25 years in prison for orchestrating a scheme that diverted over $8 billion in FTX customer funds to his trading firm, Alameda Research. He was also ordered to pay $11 billion in forfeiture. Following his conviction, Bankman-Fried appealed the decision, arguing that the trial was unfair due to alleged bias from the presiding judge and premature assumptions of guilt. As of September 2024, Bankman-Fried's legal team is seeking a new trial before a different judge. The Liberal rat is trying to wangle out of this. But it is quite impressive that he got that sentence earlier this year. It looks like a bit of justice. But, I think the Liberal rat will squirm out of it. Jan]

This is from the detailed wikipedia page about the trial. Here’s the verdict section:

The jury began deliberations on November 2 around 3:15 p.m.,[83] and ended them after five hours on the same day: Bankman-Fried was found guilty on all charges.[84]

After the verdict, Attorney General Merrick Garland stated: "Sam Bankman-Fried thought that he was above the law. Today’s verdict proves he was wrong. This case should send a clear message to anyone who tries to hide their crimes behind a shiny new thing they claim no one else is smart enough to understand: the Justice Department will hold you accountable."[85] Bankman-Fried’s defense team stated they would likely appeal, adding that they intended to "vigorously fight the charges."[86]

A new trial of Bankman-Fried was scheduled to begin on March 11, 2024, at the same court with five counts cited, including bank fraud and the bribery of Chinese officials, after the prosecution’s request to have some of their charges tried separately was granted in June 2023 by a U.S. judge.[85]

On December 30, 2023, prosecutors announced that they will not conduct a second trial on the five outstanding charges, arguing that "strong public interest" in a prompt resolution of the case, combined with the fact that the evidence that would have been presented at the second trial was already presented at the first trial, as well as the fact that a second trial would not affect how much time Bankman-Fried could spend in prison, meant a second trial was not necessary.[87]

On March 28, 2024, Bankman-Fried was sentenced to 25 years in federal prison.[88][89]

After his trial conviction and sentencing, Bankman-Fried was assigned federal inmate register number 37244-510, and incarcerated in the MDC Brooklyn.[90] A prison transfer process to FCI Mendota reportedly began on May 22, 2024.[91]
