FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried is getting charged with breaking campaign finance law... again.
On Monday, federal prosecutors filed a superseding indictment charging Bankman-Fried once again with violating campaign finance law.
In order to get the crypto boy wonder extradited from the Bahamas last year, US prosecutors revoked the charges that alleged Bankman Fried ran a straw donor scheme to defraud the Federal Election Commission.
Despite bringing back the overall charge of campaign finance misconduct, Monday’s indictment doesn’t mention straw donors and narrows the scope of Bankman-Fried’s misconduct, accusing him of wrongfully donating more than $100 million to campaigns.
