Prosecutor in SBF Case Testifies on FTX Executive Plea Deal

[lingriiddd]

Assistant U.S. Attorney Danielle Sassoon, known for helping prosecute Sam Bankman-Fried, testified in a New York hearing about former FTX Digital Markets co-CEO Ryan Salame’s guilty plea. Sassoon said prosecutors “would probably not continue to investigate” Salame if he pleaded guilty — a deal that led to his 7.5-year sentence.
Her comments surfaced after investigators later charged Salame’s then-girlfriend Michelle Bond with campaign finance crimes, prompting Bond to argue prosecutors unfairly induced his plea.
