Odaily Planet Daily News Former FTX Digital Markets co-CEO Ryan Salame withdrew his request to withdraw his sentence after a dispute with the US government over its partner Michelle Bond’s investigation. Salame’s lawyer had previously claimed that the prosecutor coerced him to plead guilty by promising not to investigate Bond, but later Bond was accused of participating in Sam Bankman-Fried’s election influence plan. Judge Lewis Kaplan deemed Salame’s request “vague and inconsistent,” and may impose sanctions on him. It is reported that Bond was previously charged with illegally accepting campaign donations related to FTX and failing to disclose them to the Federal Election Commission. (TheBlock)
