The DOJ has not yet decided if they are going to pursue those charges
The DOJ is clearly pursuing the charges, thus the trial date set in March already.
The only reason he was not tried on them with the others is because if they tacked on these charges that were found during the bankruptcy discovery it would have changed the extradition treaty with the Bahamas.
They pushed the trial to March to get the agreement with the Bahamas government. It has nothing to do with the DOJ waiting to make a decision.
ACtually they went straight with the bribery charges.

A separate trial planned for March 2024 would cover the other five counts, which are fraud on customers of FTX in connection with the purchase and sales of derivatives, securities fraud on investors in FTX, conspiracy to commit bank fraud, conspiracy to operate an unlicensed money-transmitting business, and conspiracy to violate the anti-bribery provisions of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.
So one more trial to go with 5 more counts.

Kaplan then asked about the second trial Bankman-Fried is facing on March 11. The government has until Feb. 1 to let the court know if it plans to still proceed. The sentencing date is March 28 at 9:30 a.m. ET.

Sure, they’ll go after him for foreign bribes, but they won’t go after his domestic political contributions. They don’t want to open that box.
