Reply to comment by tipsup in FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried indicted on new criminal charges, including campaign finance violations | CNN Business by spatenfloot

He is on a $250,000,000.00 bond. That is the largest bond I have ever fucking heard of. Not many people have $25,000,000.00 in cash money to do that. And he isn’t a flight risk. He and his family are not criminal masterminds and he has the FBI surveilling him 24/7.

I mean, the total collateral actually put up is in the neighborhood of $2M.

He's a tremendous flight risk and it's a joke that he isn't incarcerated. He's stolen billions from customers, why would he care about forfeiting his parents' house? The entire family is gonna find a way to end up somewhere in the ME or somewhere equally comfortable for billionaires that won't extradite.

In another sub I made this comparison. Carlos Ghosn, accused of $100M fraud, was able to board public transit and flee Japan while under 24/7 surveillance. The FTX fraud is 100x the size. He's gonna find a way to skip town and access his stolen crypto.

No he isn't, he's incompetent at crime. If he tries he's not getting far, and I doubt he'll try. He seems to think he can talk his way out of it. Fucking delusional.

Yeah, definitely.

This asshole lives his life like no rules ever apply to him. He is the definition of a flight risk.
