Honestly these prosecutions are really just driven by the media. They just are.
The fact that sam was young and had a poluamorous house in the Bahamas meant this was front page material. This then meant that prosecutors feel they must do something about it to show the world you can't commit fraud AND be widely known and get away with it.
People who commit fraud and aren't widely known aren't treated the same by our justice department.
- gamblor956 3y agoYou're right. People who commit fraud and aren't widely known don't get house arrest pending trial, they go straight to a federal holding facility. They don't get to access the internet or play video games all day, they get to look at 4 walls and contemplate the meaning of life. SBF benefited from being widely known. Most people aren't that lucky.
