From the start, former colleagues Gary Wang and Caroline Ellison have pointed the \u2062finger at Bankman-Fried \u2062as the mastermind behind one of the largest financial frauds in U.S. \u2064history. The\u200d prosecution has presented compelling evidence, leaving the defense struggling to make \u200cits case. As\u200b the trial unfolds, it\u200d becomes clear that the prosecution&#8217;s case\u200d is strong.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Since \u2064its \u200dstart on\u200d Oct. 3, the\u2063 trial\u200c has\u2062 featured \u2062compelling testimony from former \u200ccolleagues FTX co-founder Gary Wang and Alameda CEO Caroline Ellison, both of whom pointed \u2062the \u200bfinger at Mr. Bankman-Fried\u2014also known \u2064by his initials, SBF\u2014as the\u2063 ringmaster of \u2062one of the largest financial frauds in U.S. history.\u2063 The defense has struggled\u200b to make its case, although Mr.\u200c Bankman-Fried\u2019s attorneys may still have cards to play.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs of now, it\u2019s not going \u200cwell for the \u2062defense,\u201d Braden Perry, a \u2063former federal enforcement attorney who&#8217;s currently a partner at Kennyhertz Perry, told The Epoch Times. \u201cBoth Ellison and Wang have\u200d testified that SBF directed them to commit\u2064 the crimes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The prosecution has been methodically\u2062 building its case, Mr. Perry said. Assistant U.S. Attorneys \u2064Nicolas Roos and Danielle\u2063 Sassoon presented consistent testimony that\u2062 Mr. Bankman-Fried knowingly and intentionally defrauded investors, and they \u2064also made efforts \u200dto humanize \u200dthe losses suffered by FTX customers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe evidence that has \u200dcome out over the first two weeks of trial is all to the point that SBF \u2063was involved, either directly or indirectly, in a\u200b conspiracy with people who themselves have pled guilty to committing fraud,\u201d Daniel Silva, a former federal prosecutor who&#8217;s \u2062currently a shareholder\u2063 at \u2064business law firm Buchalter, told The Epoch Times.<\/p>\n<p>The prosecution\u2019s case \u200dthus far \u201cis very strong,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>And\u2063 while\u2064 cryptocurrencies are arcane financial instruments, the case itself is straightforward.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h2>A Simple Tale of Theft and \u200dDeceit<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a typical corporate fraud case,\u201d Mr. Silva said. \u201cThe product may have been complex, \u200dbut the fraud itself \u200cis \u2062not unique. Basically, the allegations are that [the defendants] improperly and deceptively took money\u200d from \u200bcustomers and investors for \u200bFTX owners\u2019 personal use.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The prosecution has largely avoided delving into\u2062 the intricacies of cryptocurrencies, focusing instead on the simpler narrative of theft and deceit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat this trial boils down to is FTX\u2019s use\u200b and Alameda\u2019s use of customer funds,\u201d Mr. Perry said. \u201cThe prosecution will need to prove SBF\u200b used those \u200bfunds knowingly and fraudulently.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the\u2062 allegations, \u201cSBF was the front of the entire enterprise, including Alameda,\u201d he \u2064said. \u201cFurther, SBF used a \u2063massive [line of credit,] which was\u200d not disclosed to Alameda customers or investors.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While approximately $9 billion of customers\u2019 and investors\u2019 money \u200dhas gone missing in \u2062the 2022 collapse of crypto exchange FTX and its affiliated hedge fund Alameda Research, the trial on Oct. 4 featured \u200dtestimony from an individual\u2062 investor who \u200dhad lost $100,000 on the FTX crypto exchange to show jurors how retail investors were personally harmed.<\/p>\n<p>This was an \u201cinteresting \u200dstart.\u201d according\u2063 to Mr. Perry.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt shows how a typical investor \u200dwas duped by the \u2018safeness\u2019 of FTX,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The prosecution\u2064 then laid the foundation of its case with testimony from\u200c Mr. Wang, FTX\u2019s former \u2062<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/burn-every-cop-precinct-to-the-ground-new-dccc-cto-tweeted-violent-anti-police-rhetoric\/\" title=\"\u2018Burn Every Cop Precinct To The Ground\u2019: New DCCC CTO Tweeted Violent, Anti-Police Rhetoric\">chief technology officer<\/a>, \u200bwho said he coded the accounts of \u2064Alameda Research to allow it to run negative balances on the FTX exchange. This gave\u2062 Alameda the ability \u2064to borrow money from \u200dthe exchange and ultimately \u200dto take clients\u2019 funds\u2014without their\u2062 knowledge or consent\u2014to pay off billions of dollars in loans and trading losses and to \u2062lend money to FTX executives for their \u2064personal use.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Wang said\u2063 Alameda accounts were set up this way at the direction of Mr. \u2064Bankman-Fried but\u2062 that this \u200dspecial arrangement between the two\u2062 companies was kept\u200c secret from FTX customers. Mr. Wang pled guilty to\u200c charges of\u200b securities fraud and accepted a plea \u2064deal with prosecutors to testify against Mr. Bankman-Fried.<\/p>\n<p>The prosecution\u2019s case then shifted to how customers\u2019 money was\u200d taken by Alameda Research.<\/p>\n<p>Ms. Ellison took the stand \u200cnext and accused Mr. Bankman-Fried of directing her to use\u200b Alameda\u2019s credit line with FTX to repay approximately $10 billion in loans, which she could \u2062only \u2064do by\u2062 taking money from FTX customers.\u2062 She said he also instructed her to deceive Alameda creditors regarding the extent of its indebtedness.<\/p>\n<p>Her testimony became emotional when during cross-examination,\u2063 she broke down in tears and said she lived in &#8220;dread&#8221; that her actions\u2064 to deceive investors would come\u2063 to light and\u2063 that when\u200c Alameda and FTX \u2063finally collapsed,\u200c it brought her an &#8220;overwhelming feeling of relief.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h2>Defense Fights Uphill Battle<\/h2>\n<p>In sum, this evidence has put the defense\u200b in a particularly challenging position, analysts say.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cYou can attack \u200btestimony and witnesses and their credibility and recollection, which it sounds like they\u2019re trying to do,\u201d Mr. Silva said. \u201cBut at the end of \u2063the day, when you have\u2062 multiple people \u200csaying the same thing\u2014basically that\u2064 SBF committed fraud and directed us to commit fraud\u2014it\u2019s really tough to undermine those witnesses or the impact\u200d of that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStrategically,\u2064 there\u2019s only so much \u2062you can do.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven if you\u2019re the\u2063 greatest [attorney] \u2064 in the world,\u200b you \u200bcan\u2019t make evidence\u2062 disappear.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The defense, indeed,\u200b appears \u200cto\u2062 be floundering.<\/p>\n<p>Lead\u200b defense\u200b attorney Mark Cohen had argued in\u2064 his opening statement that Mr. Bankman-Fried\u2019s associates were \u200dthe actual perpetrators \u2063and that his client was either unaware \u2063of\u200b or\u2062 not directly involved\u200b in their\u2062 crimes. Mr. Bankman-Fried stepped down as CEO of Alameda\u200b Research in October 2021, handing the reins\u200c to \u2062Ms. Ellison.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Cohen succeeded in getting Ms. Ellison \u2063to admit to instances in which Mr.\u200d Bankman-Fried wasn&#8217;t directly involved in\u200c the workings of Alameda, but he largely failed to \u2064discredit her overall testimony \u2064that Mr. Bankman-Fried was the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/sam-bankman-fried-issues-first-response-to-ftx-case-says-he-didnt-steal-funds\/\" title=\"Sam Bankman-Fried Issues First Response to FTX Case, Says He Didn't Steal Funds\">ultimate decision-maker<\/a>,\u200d legal analysts say.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Cohen\u2019s\u2064 line of questioning appeared to ramble\u2064 at times, repeatedly changing topics and dates and, at one point, referencing a\u2064 wrong document. Another time, he paused to say\u200b he&#8217;d\u2064 lost his place.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h2>Defense Fights\u2063 Uphill Battle<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cThe judge has been very skeptical of the [defense\u2019s] cross-examinations and has sustained\u2064 multiple objections,\u201d Mr. Perry said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Several times, the judge stopped the proceedings to \u2063ask Mr. Cohen \u200bwhere\u2062 he was \u2062going with his questions or \u2062what he \u2063was talking about, finally declaring after an hour of cross-examination that \u201cmaybe\u2062 this is a good time for a \u200bbreak.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Bankman-Fried also earned U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan&#8217;s\u200b ire \u200dby\u2062 allegedly attempting to communicate\u2063 with witnesses\u200d via the Signal app\u200b before\u2064 the trial. In February, Mr. Bankman-Fried was ordered by \u2063the judge to refrain \u200dfrom communicating with \u200bformer employees.<\/p>\n<p>In\u2062 August, Mr. Bankman-Fried allegedly shared personal writings \u200dfrom Ms. Ellison with a reporter, which Judge Kaplan deemed\u200b to \u200dbe witness tampering. This led the judge to\u2064 revoke\u2063 his\u2062 bail, whereupon Mr. Bankman-Fried was moved \u2062from his parents&#8217; home in \u200bCalifornia, where he was under house arrest, to a \u200bjail cell.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the \u200bstumbles, Mr. Bankman-Fried may not be \u200dbeaten just yet.<\/p>\n<p>One element that the defense may have in its favor is the fact that both Mr. Wang\u200c and Ms. Ellison admitted\u2063 that, for the most part, they were the ones who acted\u2014coding accounts, \u200btransferring money from FTX, or manipulating financial \u2064records. While\u2062 they both said they did so \u200bat the\u200c direction of Mr. Bankman-Fried, there has so\u200b far been limited physical \u200cevidence of that, leaving jurors to rely on\u2064 the word of those who\u200b are \u2063testifying in order to receive\u200d a lighter sentence.<\/p>\n<p>There are few\u200b records of the conversations among the parties\u200b in this case because of the fact that FTX and Alameda executives communicated\u200b with \u2063each\u200c other \u200dvia\u2064 Signal, a messaging app that\u200d uses encryption \u2063to keep communications secure \u200band\u200c was configured \u200dto\u200d delete messages automatically. On the other hand, jurors \u200cmay well question the\u2063 motives of Mr. \u200cBankman-Fried in avoiding a paper trail of company correspondence, and it doesn&#8217;t help \u200cthe defense&#8217;s case that the chat\u2064 group that executives used with \u200dthis app was reportedly \u2064called \u2063&#8221;Wirefraud.&#8221; Mr. Bankman-Fried has denied that a chat group existed under \u200cthat name or that he \u2063was part of it if\u200d it\u200d did.<\/p>\n<p>The defense may also be attempting to build a\u2064 counter-argument that Mr. Bankman-Fried\u200b believed that he was acting lawfully,\u200b based\u200c on advice that he had received from FTX \u200blawyers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA key ruling will be the use of the advice-of-counsel defense by SBF,\u201d Mr.\u200b Perry said, referring to decisions by\u2063 Judge Kaplan about what evidence he&#8217;ll\u2064 allow \u200dalong these lines.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe prosecution will need to prove SBF used those funds knowingly and\u2062 fraudulently. \u2062The SBF defense has asked\u2062 the judge\u200c to \u200dallow SBF to argue that his acts were\u2063 reviewed and approved\u2063 by his FTX\u2019s lawyers \u200cand that SBF\u200d believed\u2064 that his acts were within the law\u200b based on this advice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis would mitigate the\u200b intent \u2063element of his crimes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a \u200cletter to Judge\u200d Kaplan in August 2022, Mr. Cohen wrote \u2062that FTX\u2019s counsel,\u2063 Fenwick &#038; West LLP (Fenwick), provided \u2062legal advice \u2063to Mr. Bankman-Fried regarding the use of auto-delete apps, the banking relationships between Alameda and FTX, loans given to FTX executives, \u200cFTX customer agreements, and \u201cintercompany agreements between FTX\u2064 and Alameda, including the Payment Agent Agreement.\u201d Mr. Cohen\u2019s request to subpoena these \u200bdocuments was opposed by prosecutors, and Judge Kaplan appears to have \u200cagreed with prosecutors in denying Mr.\u2064 Cohen\u2019s request.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Cohen argued \u2063that \u2062the \u2064legal \u2064advice given \u200bto Mr. Bankman-Fried by Fenwick, as well as by internal FTX lawyers, \u201cgave him assurance that\u200d he was acting\u2063 in good faith\u201d and that \u201cthe fact that the \u2063Government\u200d now asks the Court to preclude evidence on reliance of counsel\u2063 is yet another \u200cattempt by the Government &#8230; to deprive the defense of a defense.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fenwick has denied that it advised Mr. Bankman-Fried that the alleged fraudulent actions were legal or that it was aware of him engaging in activity that might have violated\u2062 laws.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h2>Campaign Finance \u200dCharges Set \u2064Aside<\/h2>\n<p>The remaining wild card in\u2062 this trial is the more than \u200b$100 million of FTX money that Mr.\u200c Bankman-Fried donated to politicians prior to FTX\u2019s collapse. He was the second-largest donor to \u200dPresident \u200bJoe Biden\u2019s election campaign in \u200d2020, giving more than $5\u200d million, and the second-largest \u200ddonor to Democrat\u200c politicians and political action\u2062 committees (PACs)\u2062 in the 2022 midterms.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Among the largest recipients of \u2063FTX donations were Sens. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.) and \u2062John Boozman (R-Ark.), who\u200c led the \u200cSenate Agriculture Committee, which oversees the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, one of the\u200b regulatory agencies for \u2064cryptocurrencies. \u200cOther top recipients included Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand\u200c (D-N.Y.), Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.),\u200c Cory Booker\u200d (D-N.J.), \u2063Lisa Murkowski \u2062(R-Alaska), and Susan Collins (R-Maine).<\/p>\n<p>On Oct. 16, Nishad Singh, FTX&#8217;s former director of engineering, testified that \u200bthe political\u200c donations made by senior executives were\u2064 made\u200c from customer funds.\u2063 Mr. Singh, who has also pleaded guilty\u200c to securities fraud\u200b and accepted a plea deal to testify for\u200b the\u200d prosecution,\u2063 said he co-signed on bank orders to \u200cmake the payments at the request\u2064 of former FTX\u2064 executive Ryan Salame, who has pleaded guilty to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/breaking-president-trump-gives-pardons-to-73-individuals-and-commutes-another-70-sentences-steve-bannon-is-included\/\" title=\"BREAKING: President Trump Gives Pardons to 73 Individuals and Commutes Another 70 Sentences \u2013 Steve Bannon Is Included\">campaign finance violations<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Bankman-Fried reportedly also held a private meeting with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chair Gary Gensler\u200b in March\u200c 2022. The SEC has thus far refused to release documentation\u200d regarding the approval of\u200b this meeting by its \u200dinternal ethics committee, \u2064although \u200can SEC spokesperson maintained that the meeting did receive approval.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the seven counts of securities fraud, wire \u200cfraud, and money laundering with which Mr. Bankman-Fried\u200d was charged, there\u200c was initially an eighth charge of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/meet-the-real-househusbands-of-the-squad\/\" title=\"Introducing the 'Squad's' Real Househusbands\">campaign finance\u200d violations<\/a>. Prosecutors dropped these charges in July, however, reportedly at the objection of authorities \u2064in the\u2062 Bahamas on\u200b the grounds \u2062that campaign finance violations weren&#8217;t included in the extradition agreement.<\/p>\n<p>Prosecutors may bring these charges at a later date, which could be sometime in 2024, according to legal analysts.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. \u200dBankman-Fried\u2019s arrest came just one day before he \u200cwas scheduled to testify before \u2063Congress, which \u200bled a number of\u200c lawmakers to protest that he was being silenced. Between the timing of his arrest and the rescinding\u200b of campaign finance charges, prosecutors\u200b have effectively dropped the issue of Mr. Bankman-Fried\u2019s political donations\u200b from this case for the time being.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> How does\u2064 the strength of the prosecution&#8217;s case impact the defense&#8217;s chances?<\/h2>\n<p><span>  Ying to do,\u201d Mr. Silva said. \u201cBut at \u200cthe \u200cend of the\u200b day, if you cannot put forth another explanation for the evidence presented, then you\u2019re on a really uphill battle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Experts say the defense will likely focus on discrediting\u200b the testimony of the \u2064prosecution&#8217;s\u200b witnesses, highlighting any inconsistencies, personal biases, or ulterior motives that could undermine their credibility.<\/p>\n<p>They may also attempt to shift blame \u2064onto \u200bother individuals or entities,\u200c arguing that Bankman-Fried was\u2063 not solely responsible for the\u200d fraud and that others within FTX \u2063and Alameda were equally involved.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the defense may argue that Bankman-Fried was unaware of the illegal activities or that he was coerced or manipulated \u2063by \u2062others \u200cinto participating in them.<\/p>\n<p>However,\u2063 given the strength\u200d of \u2063the prosecution&#8217;s case \u2062and the weight of the evidence against Bankman-Fried, legal experts believe that\u200c the defense faces an \u2063uphill battle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe evidence\u200d so far has been \u200bvery damning,\u201d Mr. Perry said. \u2063\u201cThe defense will need\u200d to \u200dpresent a convincing\u2064 alternative narrative that can explain\u2062 the\u200b evidence and cast doubt on the prosecution&#8217;s case.
