#12Seems low for what prosecutors consider "one of the biggest financial frauds in U.S. history." https://www.reuters.com/technology/sam-bankman-fried-be-sent...
It puts him in between Madoff and Holmes.

#13The US prison sentence lengths are insane.
How so. Do you think it's too long, too short, too ...?

#14Quite a short sentence for the magnitude of the crime. Financial crimes like these do kill people and destroy countless lives. They deserve maximum pentalties.

25 years is a long time. Not saying he doesn't deserve more but his parents will probably be dead by the time he gets out, and he wont have a family.
Also, he was addicted to the internet (supposedly), he wont have access to that either.

#16He will have to serve 21 years before early release. There is no parole in federal prison. I heard 5 years are concurrent making it 20 actual years. If that’s the case he can get out in 17 years.
He wasted a good part of his life.

#17Honestly 25 years seems like way too long to me.

You think so? 25 years seems quite reasonable to me. He stole billions of dollars.

What’s with the sudden turn to “haha everyone was wrong in the past” on here?
There’s nothing wrong with being wrong. What’s the point?
