Uncensored Crypto News: Sam Bankman-Fried's Current Digs
Bankman-Fried, creator of FTX, transported to less-secure federal detention facility in Los Angeles
Ex-FTX honcho, Sam Bankman-Fried, is currently huddled up at the Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) Terminal Island in Los Angeles, California. Known as a low-security federal penitentiary, Terminal Island accommodates more than 900 male inmates, including our man, Bankman-Fried[2][4][5].
Served a 25-year sentence for misappropriating FTX customer funds resulting in the $multi-billion demise of the crypto exchange[1], Bankman-Fried previously resided in the notorious Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. As his conviction date draws near, BF found himself shuttled around in various facilities, such as the Federal Transfer Center in Oklahoma City and the medium-security prison in Victorville, California, before reaching his current abode, FCI Terminal Island[4][5].
In less than five years, Bankman-Fried marks his release date as December 2044, but his parents aren't giving up without a fight. Seeking clemency, Joe and Barbara Bankman dangled appeals before those close to former President Donald Trump[3]. However, experts remain skeptical about the move, predicting a bleak outcome[3].
