The only reason the Attorney General hasn't charged SBF is because no one wants to see the discovery that could come from these cases.
They invited and welcomed SBF and FTX because it looks like SBF was willing to pay the "tax" to do business in The Bahamas. Let's see the emails and text messages for the charities and for the real estate purchases. Who received commissions and how much?
No, they want SBF out of here. No discovery, just let it fade. What's the penalty for destroying evidence like deleting email and texts?
You had him in your prison and they are going to let him go.
Can't even comment on the story, just the photo. And this will be deleted, too.
