Crypto Mogul, Sam Bankman-fried Convicted Of Fraud, Faces 110 Years In Prison by Sundaland: 4:35am On Nov 03, 2023
Beleaguered cryptocurrency king and FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried was convicted on seven counts in his fraud trial in New York Thursday, ending a storied ascent that brought in millions in political donations and sparked criminal probes across agencies when FTX collapsed.

Bankman-Fried was convicted of charges including wire fraud and conspiracy to commit securities fraud in his case tried in the Southern District of New York.

“Sam Bankman-Fried perpetrated one of the biggest financial frauds in American history – a multibillion-dollar scheme designed to make him the King of Crypto – but while the cryptocurrency industry might be new and the players like Sam Bankman-Fried might be new, this kind of corruption is as old as time,” Damian Williams, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York said in a statement.

“This case has always been about lying, cheating, and stealing, and we have no patience for it,” Williams continued.

Bankman-Fried, 31, faced several charges over allegations that he defrauded his customers and investors of billions of dollars in a scheme that prosecutors have called “one of the biggest financial frauds in American history.”

What if they don't face nothing, so they should allow them to keep scamming people abi. You want one evil to stop and another continued. The American dude above isn't a politician but an entrepreneur so your example is not correct
