Sad Banfraud-Man, Democrat megadonor, fraudster, career criminal, scammer and remorseless criminal is sentenced to 25 years in prisonDemocrats lose a powerful ally.https://nypost.com/2024/03/28/us-news/sam-bankman-fried-faces-decades-in-prison-as-hes-sentenced-today-for-multi-billion-dollar-fraud/‘Remorseless’ Sam Bankman-Fried sentenced to 25 years in prison — as judge rips him as power-obsessed scammerA Manhattan judge ripped Sam Bankman-Fried as a “remorseless” scammer obsessed with political power as he sentenced the fallen crypto mogul to 25 years in prison Thursday — five months after he was found guilty of stealing more than $8 billion from customers of his now-bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX.Judge Lewis Kaplan said the 32-year-old convicted fraudster “presented himself as the good guy” all in favor of “appropriate regulation of the crypto industry” — but it was just an “act.”“He did it because he wanted to be a hugely, hugely political influential person in this country,” Kaplan said, blasting him as “remorseless.”“He knew it was wrong, he knew it was criminal, he regrets that he made a very bad bet about the likelihood of being caught,” he continued, as Bankman-Fried stood in front of him with his hands clasped tightly at his waist.Moments before the judge handed down the lengthy sentence, Bankman-Fried apologized for making “bad decisions” that “failed everyone I care about” — but maintained his actions “weren’t selfish.”“At the end of the day, I failed everyone that I care about and everything that I care about, too,” he said at the hearing in Manhattan federal court.“A lot of people feel really let down and, I’m sorry about that. I’m sorry about what happened at every stage,” the fallen crypto mogul, wearing light tan jail garb, continued.“I made a series of decisions, they weren’t selfish decisions, they weren’t selfless decisions. They were decisions.”
Bankman-Fried had emerged as crypto’s friendly face in the US before his platform’s sudden November 2022 meltdown.With his company worth $40 billion at its peak, the tech mogul flew around on private jets, showered politicians who he thought might be crypto-friendly with millions in donations, and even palled around with celebrities at the Super Bowl.But weeks after his platform’s collapse, he was arrested in the Bahamas and charged with swiping FTX user funds to plug an $8 billion debt at his failing hedge fund Alameda Research.In November last year, a jury found that the ex-crypto golden boy had looted the accounts of what prosecutors called “tens of thousands” of people — including in war-torn and unstable nations — who lost the nest eggs they entrusted to him.He was also found guilty of defrauding FTX’s lenders by sending them phony balance sheets, and of lying to the company’s investors. He earned roughly $3 billion in ill-gotten gains from those schemes, prosecutors said.Bankman-Fried has been in jail since August after Kaplan revoked his bail after finding that he tampered with witnesses, including by leaking his ex-girlfriend Caroline Ellison’s diary to a journalist.The feds asked Kaplan to sentence Bankman-Fried to 40 to 50 years in prison after his conviction on seven counts of fraud and conspiracy.Lawyers for the disgraced crypto ace called for him to instead serve only 5¼ to 6½ years.Bankman-Fried, who swapped out his unkempt look for a coiffed hairdo and suit and tie during the month-long trial, took the stand in his own defense — which did not go well.He claimed more than 100 times that he could not “recall” details about his business — like repeatedly promising that his platform was “safe” — before being confronted with a mountain of evidence revealing that he said dozens of things he claimed not to remember.

Three of his former business partners — including his ex Ellison, Alameda’s former CEO — pleaded guilty to their own fraud raps and flipped on him, testifying that the cocky math whiz set up a secret system allowing the hedge fund to have “backdoor” access to the exchange’s cash.Bankman-Fried also used FTX customer funds to make more than $100 million in political contributions before the 2022 elections and to buy a ritzy $40 million Bahamian penthouse where he and his colleagues lived and worked, prosecutors said.In total, the feds asked the judge to order Bankman-Fried to pay $11 billion in restitution — $8 billion to customers, $1.7 billion to investors and $1.3 billion to lenders — to make everyone whole.According to his attorneys, the feds unfairly painted the MIT grad during the trial as a “supervillain” stealing from his customers to live the high life — while he was never in fact driven by greed.The convicted fraudster was actually solely motivated by donating his riches to charitable causes, his lawyer Marc Mukasey claimed to the court.Bankman-Fried cannot enjoy “fancy and expensive” things at all, in fact, because he suffers from a condition known as anhedonia, which is “characterized by a near-complete absence of enjoyment, motivation, and interest,” the lawyer argued.

>>1282487Reminder that if Bankman-Fried had donated to Trump instead and made some sussy comments about jews OP would be saying the charges against him are made up by da globo-homos.
>>1282502Nah Your just angry and fearful
>>1282502They would also have made statues of him to replace the civil war 'hero' statues that were removed a few years back.
>>1282519>>1282502Kek.The second largest megadonor for democrats gets sentenced to 25 years of prison for fraud and corruption and all you can do is fantasize about alternate realities where democrats aren't corrupt fraudsters
>>1282520Donald J. Trump
>>1282521Yes, you people did invent a civil fraud suit against trump Honestly you should have just focused on the documents case
>>1282523Trump University
>>1282520Actually no, its just making fun of the current republican leaders. Get a grip dude, step into reality, stop blindfully worshipping the Orange Jesus.
>>1282517I considered most crypto-currencies to be a scam/pyramid scheme long before this and don't like Bankman-Fried.My point is that conservatives only care about this because he donated to democrats. If he had supported the right, you would be defending him right now as a persecuted truth teller about the JQ or some shit.You don't actually care about the rampant corruption in cryptocurrencies.
>>1282487>stealing more than $8 billionswiss bank acct.>>1282520Bankman-Fried also donated a significant amount to fundraising committees and super PACs affiliated with both partiesAlthough federal election receipts show that Bankman-Fried donated almost exclusively to Democrats, he claimed on a November phone call with YouTuber Tiffany Fong that he donated an equal amount to Republicans and Democrats.“All my Republican donations were dark,” he said, referring to political donations that are not publicly disclosed in FEC filings. “The reason was not for regulatory reasons, it’s because reporters freak the f—k out if you donate to Republicans. They’re all super liberal, and I didn’t want to have that fight.”https://time.com/6241262/sam-bankman-fried-political-donations/
>>1282542Imagine believing a liar.What an idiot.
>>1282553>The reason was not for regulatory reasons, it’s because reporters freak the f—k out if you donate to Republicans. They’re all super liberal, and I didn’t want to have that fight.”So you don't think this happens in the news media?
>>1282538>Brings up "orange Jesus" >His post had nothing to do with trump whatsoeverHow about you get a grip? Your so psychotic you are placing references to trump into posts in which they never existed
>>1282542>Bankman-Fried also donated a significant amount to fundraising committees and super PACs affiliated with both partiesFrom all the evidence that's been gathered in all of the Court trials, over 90% of his donations went to Democrats.Sure, you can go ahead and take the unfounded claims of a proven liar, but I'd rather rely on verifiable evidence
>>1282559kek, the Orange Jesus was coined by a Republican congressman in the lead up to Jan 6.
>>1282561>From all the evidence that's been gathered in all of the Court trials, over 90% of his donations went to Democrats.Who gives a shit
>>1282559Hahaha, your missing the entire point. If you read the thread we xertainly were making fun of Trump, hence the orange jesus commwlent cauae your just a rube who will blindfully follow Trump everywhere.And yes, this comes from a 40 year Republican card hokding member who never had the MAGA wool pulled over my eyes. I have integrity, never voted Trump, never will.
>>1282561He's a smart jew.I believe him when he says he greased palms n both sides of the aisle.It's what I would do, and you would see this if you took off your partisan blinder.
>>1282696Well, he did grease palms on both sides of the aisle. About 10% of palm greasing has been shown to be republican palms, and the other 90% was democrat palmsHey, did you know? Sad bankfraud-man was a democrat megadonor
