Yes, you read that right. Bankman-Fried walked out of court essentially a free man by signing a piece of paper where he promised to pay the court $250 million if he decides to flee to another country with no extradition. Does that include fleeing (or being sent involuntarily) to the Afterlife?

No my parents are not politically connected and I did not dump 500M+ into elections over the past 3 years.
You know what I can do that he cannot do, grab a passport and explore the world.
I did not do the stupid of centralizing a decentralized currency. The central banks will do the same stupid.

What if there’s an unfortunate “accident” and he’s unable to discuss Democrat money laundering?
Not that there’s a chance that would happen, of course.

Sure, everyone who steals billion or two should be able to use that money for a “personal recognizance bond” secured by the equity in Bankman-Fried’s parents’ $4 million home.

“ personal recognizance bond” is also called released on own recognizance or ROR. In the trade, we’d refer to it as “foot bail” because the accused would often take off (abscond).

I believe I heard that the “papers” that were signed were liens on real property of his parents and friends.
To: KarlInOhio
As long as he says nothing to anyone about anything he’s free to be free. The moment he becomes a talking loose end, which Adderall speed freaks tend to do, he’s sleeping with Seth Rich.

I did some “bail recovery” work back in the day. And no Bondsman in his right mind would sign off on this.
