SDNY COURTHOUSE, April 12 – Sam Bankman-Fried of FTX on August 11 for tampering with witnesses in the upcoming trial against him was ordered remained to jail.
But which jail?
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Lewis A. Kaplan heard from prosecutors that in Putnam County Correctional Facility, SBF could be given access to discovery material over the Internet.
Kaplan replied that he assumed the defendant would be in the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, like fellow crypto-fraud defendant Miles Guo and others.
On August 12 Inner City Press, which published the first book about SBF's remand ("Crypto Creeps," here) found the Bureau of Prisons notice, listing SBF in the MDC.
Judge Kaplan mentioned that he could consider allowing SBF to visit his lawyers' office. But no other MDC inmate has such an arrangement.
