**News Flash: Bitfinex Hack Accomplice Faces Jail Time**
Federal prosecutors are pushing for an 18-month jail sentence for Heather Morgan, aka rapper "Razzlekhan," for her role in laundering 120,000 Bitcoin stolen from Bitfinex in 2016. Morgan, who pled guilty to money laundering and fraud in August 2023, provided significant assistance in a plea deal and was deemed a lower-level participant compared to her husband, Ilya Lichtenstein.
Lichtenstein admitted to orchestrating the hack and faces up to 20 years in prison. Prosecutors highlighted Morgan's conscious involvement in laundering millions in stolen funds. Her sentencing is set for Nov. 15.
