Prosecutors for the U.S. Department of Justice’s Southern District of New York unsealed a criminal indictment on Tuesday charging Mr. Bankman-Fried of lying to investors from the start of the company. Mr. Bankman-Fried faces eight counts, including wire fraud on customers and lenders, and conspiring to defraud the United States and violate campaign finance laws.

The Securities and Exchange Commission filed civil charges on Tuesday alleging that Mr. Bankman-Fried misled investors who committed nearly $2 billion to FTX while also defrauding customers of the exchange. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission, which plays an important role in overseeing the crypto industry, also filed a complaint against Mr. Bankman-Fried, charging him with fraud and misrepresentation.

The damage is done; the elections are over. They did “get away with it” since “it” was using money obtained fraudulently (allegedly) to influence the outcome of elections.

At this point, what does it matter?

Wasn't he about to appear before a congressional committee?
The timing is interesting if this is the case. I would say the arrest helps protect him and his public image so that he doesn't get exposed before Congress.
The democrats will still try to protect him and aid and abet him however they can. Keeping him out of sight and giving him the excuse of not being able to discuss the investigation and trial.

His chat group was named “ Wirefraud”, he knew he would get away with it, because he funded the fraudulent elections, payed the actors…. Now, he’s being arrested to hide the details

What is it, you think you are reading here? Is Friedman in jail? Has all of this donations been given back?

I truly hope you stay on top of this topic because the DOJ announcing an indictment does not equal "they got him".

He was about to subpoena'd by congress, but now the DOJ gave him cover to not talk. You are so slow on this whole thing cwill. But thanks for trying to protect your betters.

Literally yesterday the common meme was that there was going to be no indictment/arrest.

Which of these 2 things is more significant?

Worthless testimony before Congress that will only be used for gotcha clips posted on social media accounts, or a serious indictment by fedgov?

*ETA: He could have taken the 5th today, IF he even appeared.

Wasn't everyone screaming about him not being arrested, yet, and that was forming the basis of "he's going to get away with it"? Now that he is arrested we're going to complain about the timing? Would you have complained if he was arrested 2 weeks ago?

The book is being thrown at his fricking face and he's going under the jail. His family is likely to be bankrupted by this...basically he has destroyed himself and his family. Considering that the he/they face an existential calamity, if they know anything that could save their skin or reduce the coming dread, I'm sure they'll use it.

Who will fund the fraudulent elections, in 2024? Republicans better get a handle on these shell games. Let’s walk through this one… Tax payers get money embezzled to FTX, by Congress funding Ukraine war, Zelenski then buys into FTX, FTX donates 600 million to political “friends”, mainly Dems and Dem pacs….. they are always a step ahead, and enriching themselves, at our expense….

You're missing the real outrage.

What's going to happen to the politicians and government officials that aided, abetted or benefited from this a-hole?

While "worthless" at least you have some Republicans asking questions. The House, on the other hand, would control the line of questioning. Now there is indictment, he can't comment.

What about this indictment by the Biden White House is "serious"?

The transcript of his remarks have been disclosed. He's been singing for the past month on any media forum that will book him. This guy is going under the jail.

False, and you have literally no evidence of this outside of one tweet.
