  • The fact that anyone thought this dude was innocent is absolutely hilarious 😂😂😂
  • @wgjung1
    Fun fact: his parents teach financial ethics at Stanford.
  • @francoputin5785
    I’m glad this guy got his justice. This case made me sick. He ruined other people’s life savings. And now we have a major precedent for anti-fraud in crypto.
  • @llenhu7537
    He learned from the best- both his parents are fraudsters
  • @ElaraNightsky
    I wonder if Sam's parents ever shed a tear for the hundreds of thousands of families whose entire life savings got stolen away🙄🙄
  • @JCChavz
    Your reporter here was outstanding. Absolutely incredible in his delivery. You should give him a raise.
  • Both of his parents have their greedy little paws in this mess, they must be next in prosecution
  • @mikenonhuman1335
    This is how you show other scammers that this will not be tolerated. Good job
  • @gbb82
    How do you go from graduating from MIT to possibly spending the rest of your life in prison?
  • The only person in America that thought Sam Bankman-Fried had a chance at an acquittal was Sam Bankman-Fried.
  • @OfflineSetup
    “Ricky, you are the ONLY person I want to talk to about news like this! And now we go to Errol” . There was sadness in Errol’s eyes.
  • @thegodofcycle216
    He guaranteed a conviction with all the interviews he did after the collapse of FTX. This is why any lawyer worth a damn will tell you to keep your mouth shut. You do not help the prosecution build their case against you.
  • @BmcC102
    I can’t love this enough.
  • What about giving the money back to people that lost all their money ?
