SBF will get a lower sentence or might even dodge jail altogether considering how many political palms he's greased, including throughout the current administration.
- jasonhansel 4y agoI'd give it a couple months.
- shapefrog 4y agoI would happily suggest that Elizabeth Holmes was orders of magnitude BETTER connected than SBF.
- DuckFeathers 4y agoBut Holmes did not donate hundreds of millions to various groups and definitely did not help launder large amounts of money from war torn country. You have to be connected closer to the swamp to be protected by them.
- regularjack 4y agoI keep seeing this sort of reply here but I don't get it. Isn't the judiciary system in the US independent from politics? If you can donate your way out of jail, something is seriously wrong with the justice system.
- 0xy 4y agoThe courts are independent, but for criminal matters government prosecutors decide whether someone even makes it to court. Consider the case of Hillary Clinton, who by textbook definition mishandled classified documents, which other people have been jailed for. She was not even referred for prosecution because of her widespread connections and political machinery. There's numerous other examples of connected people getting light or no sentences. Jussie Smollett is another one.
