He already had superseding indictments, why is this charge different from the other new charges?

I don't know exactly every charge that they gave to the Bahamas government for extradition, however they didn't include any charges related to campaign finance. I know they gave mail fraud, wire fraud, money laundering, etc.

Couldthey charge him on it? Probably. But given the other more serious charges, it's probably not worth breaking a treaty obligation to do so.

Great to finally see someone from an oppressed minority get a break.

Ok, looked into it. I believe he had 2 superseding indictments that added on 5 new charges. Last month, they split the charges into 2 separate trials, with the second trial being for new charges that were not included in the extradition agreement.

Rather odd for the court to not include campaign violations in the second trial, only to later drop it. He donated over $100m to politicians.

A federal judge ruled Thursday that the criminal charges against Sam Bankman-Fried should be split into two trials, after both prosecutors and the defense agreed that litigation in the Bahamas could delay the FTX founder’s case.

Bankman-Fried faces a total of 13 criminal charges connected to the implosion of cryptocurrency exchange FTX and was scheduled to go to trial on all the counts on Oct. 2. In his ruling, U.S. District Court Judge Lewis Kaplan ordered a separate trial on five of the charges that he tentatively scheduled for March 2024. The trial in October will proceed on the other charges.

Prosecutors have twice expanded their case against Bankman-Fried since he was transferred to the U.S. from Bahamian custody in December, including new allegations that he conspired to commit bank fraud and bribe a Chinese official. He was originally charged with eight counts, in an indictment that alleged he stole billions of dollars from customers and lenders.

Bankman-Fried, 31 years old, had argued that without the consent of the Bahamas, the U.S. has violated the terms of his extradition. The treaty between the two countries requires that a host country approve the charges before the transfer of custody and any additional charges brought after the extradition. The Justice Department had conceded that it can’t move forward on the newer charges unless the Bahamas consents.

A Bahamian judge earlier this week temporarily blocked authorities in the island nation from responding to the U.S. government’s request for that consent, which has thrown a wrench into the prosecution’s plans. Bankman-Fried is seeking to make additional legal arguments in the Bahamas against the added charges.

Prosecutors late Wednesday consented to splitting the 13 counts that Bankman-Fried faces into two different trials, a move the Justice Department had previously resisted.

Prosecutors told Judge Kaplan at a hearing earlier Thursday that the October trial would be a week or two shorter if it proceeds on a smaller set of charges.

Its not even that, its that a majority of asians believe the reason blacks attack asians is because of institutional racism/white supremacy. lol
