USA v. Sam Bankman-Fried has a real chance of ending tomorrow. DOJ has a brief rebuttal, judge reads jury charge and if all goes according to schedule deliberations may begin shortly after lunch. Judge proposed keeping jury late if they're still deliberating by end of day.

US v. SBF: in closing statements, the US relied heavily on evidence to argue SBF is guilty and he was “greedy” while SBF's defense managed to make things worse

Mistakes aren't illegal, but fraud is — and Bankman-Fried's lawyers never made his defense land.

There was a really interesting exchange that felt kind of emblematic of SBF's testimony during his trial. It may have puzzled me somewhat. https://www.coindesk.com/... [image]

New York Times

On his final day of testimony, SBF denied knowing that billions of dollars in customer money had been misappropriated until shortly before FTX collapsed

The founder of the FTX crypto exchange was grilled by a federal prosecutor for a second day, just before both sides rested their case in the criminal fraud trial.

A lot is going to be said about Sam Bankman-Fried's testimony before a judge today. But I think one of the most interesting moments was when he answered a question despite the judge sustaining an objection against it, leading to his own lawyer sounding kind of exasperated

Financial Times

In a testimony without the jury present, SBF says he followed the counsel of lawyers to make critical decisions around passing FTX customer money to Alameda

Former crypto billionaire blames lawyers as court hears first snippets of testimony without jury present

There wasn't a jury today. But AUSA Danielle Sassoon is clearly a savvy interrogator. Lawyers from both parties have tried to inject questions they know won't be answered just to have them. So what happens if Bankman-Fried decides to answer one anyway, in front of a jury?
