Sammy’s continued antics are irrelevant but entertaining in a schadenfreudisch way. The whole bitcoin crime is only entertainment now that QE/ZIRP is done.
JUDGE Kaplan has finally started being a JUDGE, so Sammy is finally getting a taste of what he deserves.
His latest spoiled-brat routine is even spoileder than before.

According to the filing, Bankman-Fried was held up from visiting rooms for two hours due to another inmate. Once he arrived, he wasn’t allowed to use his laptop without lawyers present, despite assurances that he would be. Additionally, once he did get access to the laptop, the internet was so slow that it took “10 minutes for the home page to load.” After an entire five-hour session, Bankman-Fried was only able to “load one document from the database to review” due to the WiFi and internal delays. Lawyers argued that not only was he brought in late, but he was “forced to return to his unit too early.”

In the first place, the defendant isn’t supposed to be “prepping the case”. That’s the lawyer’s job. In the second place, his lawyers should be filtering this shit. They know that JUDGE Kaplan is pissed now, and every new whine will piss him harder. Lawyers are paid to mitigate the client’s trouble if they can’t prove him innocent. This is guaranteed to make the conditions stricter, not easier.
Are the lawyers equally pissed? Are they happy to let Sammy ruin his own case?
