While I do think that what Coffeezilla did was a terrific piece of journalism I still don't think that what SBF has fessed up to alone can be evidence of fraud.

While I do think that what Coffeezilla did was a terrific piece of journalism I still don't think that what SBF has fessed up to alone can be evidence of fraud. He has admitted to breaking the terms of services with his users but I didn't hear an admission of intent. He can still plead negligence in this case. Don't get me wrong, I think that doing all of these interviews is really the nail in his coffin. I don't see how anyone can watch these interviews and not think that what this guy did was criminal. I could imagine in an alternate universe, where he just kept his mouth shut, SBF could get some kind of deal if he helps the bankruptcy courts claw back some of the assets improperly paid. This guy is clearly a narcist who thinks that he will be able to win this in the court of public opinion by smiling at the camera and paying lip service.
