The biggest question to me is why he isn't in prison
He hasn't been convicted of anything yet. He hasn't even been charged with anything yet.
(Aside: prison is for sentences of greater than 1 year. Defendants awaiting trial who were denied bail are held in a jail.)

- gamblor956 4y agoOnce charges are filed there is a limited window of time to bring the case to trial, and you can only try a defendant once for a particular set of acts (in the U.S. at least; "double jeopardy"). FTX hasn't even finished collapsing. There will be plenty of time to prosecute him once all of the facts are known, assuming he hasn't been killed by one of his many victims before then.
