I think 10- years would be fair but with our draconian system that seems unlikely, maybe a pardon?
Good bet, but I’d be happy to take that action. I’d invest the $25, get a much higher rate of return, and pay you the $50 in 20 years. Easy money.

he was on his way to dismissals + probation before he fucked around with that VPN and got remanded. that kinda changed everything.

Should throw him and Karpeles in greasy vat.
page 112 is where i officially gave up.
alameda miraculously becomes 'profitable' thanks to the sort of book keeping that enron lacked the balls to even try and lewis literally dedicating whole ass pages to letting sam tar and feather the people who called him an incompetent grifter.
this might be the first lewis book i simply cant finish.

Did not finish. There, I said it.
I was enthusiastic early on then simply lost the will.

Sentencing is scheduled for next week. March 28h. Prosecutors seeking 40-50.
FTX CEO John Ray urges a more lenient sentence
Our under 80½ bet has aged nicely, Druff. Raise a slice of pizza to Sam.The DoJ's 40 to 50-year sentencing recommendation is too harsh, he added: "Crushing Sam in this way is unnecessary."
sonatine actually fooled me with the Caroline post. I believed it was possible. I also thought it was from today and not November.
Even this February 2024 article agrees: https://www.ccn.com/news/caroline-el...-inner-circle/
Female privilege in the justice system is sweet, especially if you're white. But I'll wait until the actual sentence before commenting further.
I don’t know about any justice but she cut a deal and flipped on SBF. The game is the game
It will probably be a combo of both factors.I don’t know about any justice but she cut a deal and flipped on SBF. The game is the game
It is tough to get stiff sentences against young white women. While Caroline isn’t attractive, the nerdy thing works in her favor. Just very tough for judges to properly see her as a criminal, especially since she can claim she was just under SBF’s spell.
To me it would be a miscarriage of justice if she sees little or no time behind bars.
This case is high profile, so we will see.I don’t know about any justice but she cut a deal and flipped on SBF. The game is the game
On an every day crime, I’d 100% rather be a poor woman of any color rather than a top 10% male. Top 1% gets a better deal probably as long as it’s not sexual.
I’ve known women get a series of 4 or 5 charges with continued probation and never a moment in jail while men would have been in jail on the first offense.
It’s the biggest disparity in the justice system. Way more than white/black wealthy/broke.
I’m talking non-violent crimes. They can steal a few hundred k and the average sentence is probation if it’s embezzlement type crime.
On drugs, they have to be arrested 5 or 6 times before imprisonment.
They really get a pass from the justice system.

and dont even get me started on the whole menstruation thing.

The SBF saga feels like 25 years ago to me …
saw my MetaMask wallet the other day and its like “was that really me?”
SBF got fucked by his autism.
Judge said he showed no remorse….no shit.
