☆ Fact check: Trump falsely claims, again, that he had to post bond to appeal civil fraud decision
  + stars: | 2024-04-02 | by ( Daniel Dale | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +3 min
CNN —Former President Donald Trump has falsely claimed, again, that he had to post a bond in order to appeal a $454 million civil fraud judgment against him – and falsely claimed, again, that Judge Arthur Engoron did something unusual in forcing him to post a bond during the appeal process. Is a crooked New York Judge allowed to make you pay for the ‘privilege’ of appealing a wrongful & corrupt decision??? He was not required to post a bond in order to appeal Engoron’s ruling; he began the appeal process in February, more than a month before he posted the bond. And the requirement he actually faced – to post a bond to prevent collection during the appeal process – was not “a first” or some unusual requirement created by Engoron. In March, Trump falsely claimed this was an unprecedented Engoron requirement.

☆ Sam Bankman-Fried has to repay $11 billion. How can he possibly do that?
  + stars: | 2024-03-29 | by ( Eva Rothenberg | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +5 min
New York CNN —A federal judge on Thursday ordered Sam Bankman-Fried to repay more than $11 billion as part of his sentence for defrauding customers and investors in his failed crypto exchange FTX. In their sentencing memorandum earlier this month, federal prosecutors laid out their reasoning for seeking $11 billion in forfeiture. Unlike restitution, where the money from seized assets goes directly to victims, the money from forfeiture is taken by the government and absorbed into the US Treasury. It is unclear how much Bankman-Fried is currently worth, but it’s likely not anywhere near $11 billion. So far, the Department of Justice has redistributed about $4 billion to Madoff’s victims.

☆ Sam Bankman-Fried sentenced to 25 years in federal prison

New York CNN —Sam Bankman-Fried has been sentenced to 25 years in federal prison for defrauding customers and investors in his failed crypto exchange FTX, a Manhattan court ruled Thursday. In this courtroom sketch, Sam Bankman-Fried, second from right, stands while making a statement during his sentencing in Manhattan federal court on March 28, 2024. There is no parole in federal cases, but Bankman-Fried may still be able to shave years off his term. Since 2018, however, nonviolent federal inmates can reduce their sentence by as much as 50% under prison reform legislation known as the First Step Act. In addition to the prison sentence, Kaplan also ordered a forfeiture of $11.02 billion.

☆ 4 takeaways from Sam Bankman-Fried’s sentencing

25 years … with caveatsBankman-Fried’s 25-year sentence is about half of the 40 to 50 years prosecutors had sought. Judge Kaplan said he weighed a number of factors, including the brazenness of the crimes and Bankman-Fried’s potential to commit crimes in the future. “It haunts me every day.”Judge Kaplan appeared unmoved by parts of Bankman-Fried’s apology about customers being hurt. FTX victims are waitingJudge Kaplan roundly rejected Bankman-Fried’s argument that there was no loss to former customers of FTX because the bankruptcy estate indicated those victims are poised to recoup most of their funds. To say that FTX customers and creditors will be paid in full “is misleading, it is logically flawed, it is speculative,” Kaplan said.
