NEW YORK (AP) — A judge kept secret that two of Sam Bankman-Fried’s closest associates had turned against him so the cryptocurrency entrepreneur wouldn’t get spooked and fight extradition from the Bahamas, according to court transcripts made public Friday.
At that hearing, Assistant U.S. Attorney Danielle Sassoon told the judge prosecutors had expected Bankman-Fried to consent to extradition Monday before there were “some hiccups in the Bahamian courtroom.”
“We’re still expecting extradition soon, but given that he has not yet entered his consent”, Sassoon told U.S. District Judge Ronnie Abrams.
The judge got assurance from Ellison’s lawyer that there was no objection to the request before granting it.
“Exposure of cooperation could hinder law enforcement officials’ ability to continue the ongoing investigation and, in addition, may affect Mr. Bankman-Fried’s decision to waive extradition in this case,” Abrams said.

Help me out, I read somewhere the execs plead January 2022. They waited unti after the election to just SBF. Right or not?
Why would they use any judge other than a Democrat operative in such a high profile case?

Heard on Howie Carr’s radio show the Jan 2022 date was a typo on the legal document. The date was supposed to be Dec 2022. (Is there a proofreader in the house!?)
Thanks!
Not sure …
Because the Democrats consistently oppose and try to bring down the Main Enemy.
A. Or ding to post#14, there was a typo on the plea, it should have read 12/2022 instead of 1/2022.
The judges are picked at random. Nothing nefarious. The idea that a “republican” judge wouldn’t have sealed the pleas until Bankman-Fraud was in custody is silly. The prosecution asked for it. Defendants agreed. And the importance of having Bankman-Fraud in custody was extremely important. Not everything in this world is conspiracy against Freepers.
“The judges are picked at random.”
Good one!!!
