Republicans Slam DOJ For Dropping Campaign Finance Charges Against Major Democratic Donor Sam Bankman-Fried: 'So We Won't Know Which Politicians He Bribed?'

  Critics are accusing the DOJ of sweeping additional charges against FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried under the rug, after prosecutors said he would not face a second trial for campaign finance violations following his conviction last month.

In his letter to the court, US Attorney Damian Williams noted that prosecutors introduced evidence about all of the dropped charges during Bankman-Fried's monthlong first trial, where he was found guilty on all counts.

Some Republicans cried foul, noting that Bankman-Fried was a major donor to Democrats, including a reported $5.2 million infusion into President Joe Biden's 2020 campaign.

Bankman-Fried had faced six additional charges that had been severed from his first trial, including conspiracy to make unlawful campaign contributions, conspiracy to bribe foreign officials and two other conspiracy counts.

Bankman-Fried was known as a major donor to Democrats, but prosecutors say he also contributed to Republican campaigns as part of the alleged illicit donation scheme.

According to a superseding indictment, Bankman-Fried 'misappropriated and embezzled FTX customer deposits,' including more than $100 million spent 'in campaign contributions to Democrats and Republicans to seek to influence cryptocurrency regulation.

US Attorney Damian Williams noted that prosecutors introduced evidence about all of the dropped charges during Bankman-Fried's first trial, where he was found guilty on all counts.
