Judge Lewis Kaplan has had enough of Samuel Bankman-Fried’s envelope-pushing.
“He has gone up to the line over and over again and I am going to revoke bail,” the US district judge ruled Friday. So he sent the disgraced 31-year-old cryptocurrency mogul to jail, rather than allow him to continue to hang out in his parents’ home in Palo Alto, California, while awaiting trial on charges of defrauding investors in his business.
