SBF's Prison Transformation into "Legal Counsel," Providing Advice to Multiple Inmates

BlockBeats News, December 20th, according to The New York Times, FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried has embarked on a new "venture" as a "legal advisor" in prison. SBF has now provided advice to several individuals, including former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández and music producer Sean Combs. In an interview, he stated that he helps others in a way that some overwhelmed lawyers cannot.

SBF mentioned that the standards of federal defense are "shockingly low," and he believes he is not replacing lawyers but rather that the lawyers "weren't doing much to begin with." Many lawyers have too many cases to provide adequate attention to their clients.

Currently, SBF is serving time in a California prison, appealing his own case, and seeking a pardon from the President of the United States.
