Sam Bankman Fried has received special treatment. No question. I have represented defendants in the SDNY and his bail would have been revoked once he violated his bail conditions, which were extraordinarily lenient to begin with. To quote Buffalo Springfield: "Something's happening here. What it is ain't exactly clear"

plea deals are happening because the real target is not SBF but CZ.
they used SBF to get close to CZ and now that SBF failed they need to extract what info they can from him so that they can build an international criminal case against CZ and binance

SBF's parents used money from FTX to gain influence in Washington. They both need to be in cells along with Sam. As well as the corrupt congresspeople who knowingly participated in whitewashing FTX... but of course that's unlikely to happen
People are forgetting they brought in the Enron guy
