SDNY COURTHOUSE,
March 8 –
Sam
Bankman-Fried
of FTX was
indicted in
the U.S.
District Court
for the
Southern
District of
New York,
leading to his
arrest in the
Bahamas on
December 12, and
extradition to
the US on
December 21.
On
February 28,
with
Bankman-Fried free
on bond, FTX's
Nishad Singh pleaded
guilty to six
criminal
charges. Inner
City Press put the
charging document
on its DocumentCloud
here.
On
March 1,
Bankman-Fried's
lawyers and
the SDNY
prosecutors -
together -
proposed to
Judge Kaplan
two candidates
as his
technical
expert: Edward
Stroz
($695/hr) and
Michael
McGowan
($650/hr). We'll
have more on
this - for
now, more on
Substack here
On
March 8,
Bankman-Fried's
lawyer went
further on VPN
use,
saying the US
has no objection,
and adding
that "We also
understand
from the
Government
that we have
not yet
received a
substantial
portion of the
discovery,
including,
among other
things, the
search warrant
returns from
thirty (30)
different
Google
accounts and
the contents
of at least
four different
electronic
devices,
including an
iPhone
belonging to
Caroline
Ellison, a
laptop
computer
belonging to
Zixiao “Gary”
Wang, and
laptop
computers
belonging to
two other
former
FTX/Alameda
employees."
