SBF Complains About Slow WiFi
Sam Bankman-Fried, also known as SBF, is finding ways to avoid going to jail by presenting a variety of excuses. After expressing concerns about the lack of vegan food options in jail, the disgraced founder of FTX is now demanding a pretrial release due to slow internet speeds.
Since his bail was revoked by the US Government in early August, SBF has been desperately trying to convince the court to release him before the trial begins on October 13. Facing a massive volume of evidence, his lawyers are fighting for more time to prepare. In a letter to the judge, Bankman-Fried’s legal team argued that prosecutors have not provided sufficient computer resources for their client to review millions of pages of material related to the collapse of FTX.
The conditions in the detention center, along with the lack of cooperation from prosecutors and slow internet speeds, have significantly reduced the time available for review. It remains uncertain whether the Department of Justice will grant his request for release this time, considering the growing number of lawsuits and criminal charges against him.
On the Flipside
Why This Matters
The collapse of FTX has resulted in numerous unresolved financial issues, and its disgraced former CEO is doing everything possible to prolong the case and delay justice.
Hot Take
Sam Bankman-Fried’s attempts to avoid jail by complaining about slow internet speeds seem like desperate excuses rather than legitimate concerns. With the mounting evidence against him and his alleged attempts to tamper with witnesses, it is unlikely that the Department of Justice will grant his request for pretrial release. The collapse of FTX has caused significant financial issues, and it is important for justice to be served in a timely manner. Bankman-Fried’s actions only serve to prolong the case and delay accountability.
