On March 28, Sam Bankman-Fried was sentenced to
25 years in prison after being found guilty of defrauding
users of FTX, the now-collapsed cryptocurrency exchange. .

Judge Lewis Kaplan found the defense's arguments
misleading, speculative and logically flawed.

factors played a role in his decision
about how to sentence Bankman-Fried.
