According to BlockBeats, on February 20, crypto KOL Tiffany Fong shared the first photo of Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) during his pretrial detention at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn on social media. The photo was taken on December 17, 2023, showing a thin and disheveled Bankman-Fried (second from the right), looking quite different from his previous appearance.

BlockBeats previously reported that Tiffany Fong had interviewed former MDC inmate Gene Borrello, who revealed that SBF became a target for extortion during his pretrial detention at MDC due to his timid nature and '80-year-old man's physique'.
