📰 U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan Weighs In on SBF's Case! ⚖️
In the criminal case against Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), the founder of FTX cryptocurrency exchange, U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan made an important statement. He noted that "evidence of the defendant spending FTX customer funds as political donations does not support the defendant's intent to defraud."
💼 However, Judge Kaplan emphasized that this evidence is relevant to proving wire fraud charges and is direct evidence related to the fraud allegations. He stated that prosecutors can discuss this aspect during the upcoming trial.
🗓️ SBF's criminal trial is scheduled to take place on October 3 (local time).
These legal proceedings will continue to be closely watched within the crypto community.
