After SBF Got 25 Years Salame Got 90 Months Now US Files about Thai Prostitutes & China

by Matthew Russell Lee

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Sept 5 – On the US v Sam Bankman-Fried trial, hours after the guilty verdict, a book was published: "Crypto Criminal: The Conviction of Sam Bankman-Fried: As live tweeted and investigated from inside the SDNY courthouse by Matthew Russell Lee," audio/book here.

  On March 28, 2024, Inner City Press live tweeted his sentencing, to 25 years.

On May 28 Salame was "sentenced to 90 months."

On August 21, Salame filed that "the Government used the plea negotiations to threaten Salame’s domestic partner and the mother of his child, Michelle Bond." Full filing on Patreon here.

 On August 22, after Inner City Press published a curtain raiser on Michelle Bond being presented in SDNY Mag court, this: "the unsealing of an Indictment today charging MICHELLE BOND.

On August 29, Saleme purported to withdraw his motion. Filing on Patreon here.

 But Judge Kaplan reiterated that papers and appearance are required. On September 5 the US Attorney's Office opposed, and submitted notes from talks with Salame's lawyers, including "charged FCPA Chinese bribery scheme. You previously said RS was generally aware that an account on a Chinese exchange was frozen and FTX/Alameda made a payment of $50M. We have evidence that RS was involved in efforts to unfreeze the accounts, including by opening crypto accounts to enable self-trading. Our understanding is that he used the PII of people he identified as Thai prostitutes to open the accounts." Document on Patreon here.
