I didn't propose a conspiracy theory, just noticing suspicious, coincidental timing. Its was THE DAY BEFORE THE HEARING. A conspiracy theory would include why they wouldn't want him to talk (a la Esptein theories).
And its literally not "baseless" if you ask if its coincidental that he was arrested the day before he was supposed to testify, why not let the hearing come and go and if he was a no show then arrest him?
They are just questions.
Regardless, SBF was charged for conspiracy, fraud, collusion, etc. Why are any questions that would throw suspicion on other parties to the conspiracy immediately shut down?
- prirun 4y agoMaybe they didn't want him to go in front of Congress because they were afraid Congress might grant him immunity. Given all the money he donated to both sides, it seems plausible to me.
- devmunchies 4y agoI believe congress can only make recommendations, they can't actually pass any judgement from a hearing.
- prirun 4y agoI looked this up before posting my comment. According to Wikipedia at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Witness_immunity https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Witness_immunity: "In the United States, Congress can also grant criminal immunity (at the Federal level) to witnesses in exchange for testifying.[1]"
