Sam Bankman-Fried sentenced to 25 years in federal prison

Fallen crypto mogul Sam Bankman-Fried sentenced to 25 years in prison - Anchorage Daily News

Yesterday I read that his attorneys were asking for 5 - 6 years because 'investors would get their money back'. I'm pleased the judge didn't fall for that.

I wonder if he'll end up in Coleman?

I'll bet you a dollar that he doesn't actually serve 25 years.

According to the NY Times, he will likely be sent to a low- or medium-security prison in the San Francisco Bay Area so that he can be near his parents’ home.

Couldn't happen to a "nicer" person.

It's interesting that all of the targeted donations he made didn't save him. But, there is still time, I suppose.

Since no one serves the sentenced time, but gets out for various reasons, I couldn't possibly accept the bet. Now whether strings will be pulled for: low security, congenial weather, good food, as others have suggested, I cannot say. But suspect, I do suspect.

Martha Stewart spent her time at "Camp Cupcake". Which prison is the male version of that?

That is a slap on the wrist as he will get out early from a country club facility. He obviously has friends in the right places who are looking after him. No real justice for his many victims.

Agree. 50% time off for good behavior then a trip to the islands to spend the $$$ he has hidden away. Maybe he’ll “trip and fall” and true justice will prevail.

Am I the only one who is surprised at people actually getting involved in this in the first place. Crypto currency never interested me and I don't think of it as real money. We say so many times "one born every minute" ...................
