Quick Glance: Sam Bankman-Fried's Verdict: 25-Year Prison Term - BBC News
- Sam Bankman-Fried received a 25-year prison sentence. Key details from the court hearing in New York were summarized, focusing on his defense lawyer's arguments and the judge's ruling.
- The judge criticized SBF's lack of remorse, noting that he had never expressed a word of regret for committing terrible crimes. Customers who lost money in the collapse reported experiencing nightmares.
