Ryan Salame Seeks Second Prison Delay Due to Medical Treatment
Former FTX executive Ryan Salame has requested another delay in his prison sentence due to ongoing medical treatment after a severe dog bite in June. Initially set to surrender on October 11, 2024, Salame is asking for an extension until December 7, following a previous postponement in August.
The U.S. government opposes this second delay as Salame faces a 7.5-year sentence for crimes tied to the collapse of FTX, including embezzlement and unlawful political contributions. Meanwhile, FTX’s bankruptcy proceedings continue, with plans to distribute $6.6 billion to creditors in the coming weeks.
