It's only a matter of time before he cuts a deal and throws his parents under the bus. If it hasn't happened already.

It was his parents, I bet. They're still sitting on 10's of millions he stole with their help.

It's actually VERY funny because none of the people involved in all those crypto ads were invited to do anything, even simply attend the game.

There is NO WAY his parents aren't in on it with him. He's too stupid to figure out how to do that on his own.

Totally not surprised.

​

Bankman-Fried has already pleaded not guilty to eight criminal counts, and has not yet been arraigned on five others.​

Why big-time politicians are surrendering gobs of campaign cash to an unlikely source

'I've never seen anything like this,' one former Federal Election Commission chair told Raw Story.

Most of these “disgorgements” stem from contributions made by executives of bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX, including former CEO Sam Bankman-Fried, Raw Story’s analysis indicates. And the Department of Justice is urging campaigns to give the money up.

“Based on our office's investigation, we have cause to believe these donations represent the proceeds of Bankman-Fried's crimes and accordingly are forfeitable under applicable provisions of the federal asset forfeiture statutes,” said a letter sent by the Department of Justice to a member of Congress’ campaign committee, which in turn shared its contents with Raw Story.
