Bankman-Fried condenado a revelar os nomes dos signatários de títulos
- O juiz federal afirma que Bankman-Fried não recorreu ao tribunal de apelações.
- Larry Kramer noted that his association with the case was due to his long-lasting friendship with Bankman-Fried’s parents.
A federal judge ruled on Wednesday that the co-signers of Sam Bankman-Fried’s bond should be made public after Bankman-Fried failed to apply to the appeals court. The 30-year-old entered a not guilty plea to fraud charges related to the bankruptcy of FTX. Bankman-Fried’s parents, Joseph Bankman and Barbara Fried, co-signed the Título de $250 milhões para garantir seu retorno ao tribunal.
Antes de quarta-feira, os nomes de dois fiadores adicionais foram retidos; no entanto, o juiz distrital dos EUA, Lewis Kaplan, decidiu que suas identidades agora devem ser tornadas públicas. De acordo com os registros não editados recentemente, Larry Kramer and Andreas Paepcke each signed bonds totaling $500,000 and $200,000 to guarantee Bankman-Fried’s appearance in court.
Kramer is a former dean of Stanford Law School, while Paepcke is a senior research scientist. Kramer told reporters that his relationship with Bankman-Fried’s parents, who are both Stanford instructors, led him to post bail for the FTX founder.
Kramer disse em um comunicado,
Joe Bankman and Barbara Fried have been close friends of my wife and I since the mid-1990s. During the past two years, while my family faced a harrowing battle with cancer, they have been the truest of friends, bringing food, providing moral support, and frequently stepping in at a moment’s notice to help. In turn, we have sought to support them as they face their own crisis.
Kramer added that his actions are “in my personal capacity” and that he has “no business dealings or interest in this matter other than to help our loyal and steadfast friends.” Prior to his ruling on Wednesday, Judge Lewis Kaplan consented to seal the names of the co-signers. Bankman-Fried’s attorneys pushed for the confidentiality of the information in a court document, claiming that the popularity of the case and the overwhelming media attention it is receiving could lead to serious privacy and safety issues for the co-signers.
