While I expected this to happen eventually, it is happening MUCH faster than I expected, given events over the past two years.  I can only imagine it will be used to detract focus from what our Traitor-in-Chief is doing.  Apparently, his refusal to testify did not set well with someone.

FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried was arrested by Bahamian authorities Monday evening after the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York shared a sealed indictment with the Bahamian government, setting the stage for extradition and U.S. trial for the onetime crypto billionaire at the heart of the crypto exchange's collapse. 

 

Before his arrest was announced, Bankman-Fried had been expected to testify virtually before the House Financial Services Committee on Tuesday, but his attorneys told CNBC that he will not testify.

 

His arrest is the first concrete move by regulators to hold individuals accountable for the multi-billion dollar implosion of FTX last month.

I could not help but wonder why they did not go for him tomorrow after he testified to Congress.

 

I would certainly not want to be holding his Life Assurance.

A promoter I think, well I watched the advert.

 

Why not?

 

They were using their brand, not some off the shelf actors.

At least FTX had a phenomenal ESG score.

And as quick as he was arrested he is out on a signature bond with no money down. I guess it pays to have friends in the DNC.
