NEW YORK: For the last eight months, Sam Bankman-Fried has been cooped up in his childhood home in Palo Alto, a 3,000-square-foot house, with a backyard and the company of his parents.
But the FTX co-founder is now locked up inside Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, a notorious facility for defendants awaiting trial on federal charges. Bankman-Fried’s $250 million bail package was revoked last week after Judge Lewis A. Kaplan in Manhattan found he likely attempted to tamper with two witnesses.
