The co-founder of failed cryptocurrency exchange FTX pleaded not guilty to a seven count indictment charging him with wire fraud, securities fraud and money laundering.

An attorney for FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried said in federal court Tuesday his client has to subsist on bread, water and peanut butter because the jail he’s in isn’t accommodating his vegan diet.

    He’s in jail not prison.

    You go to jail to be held before trial. He isn’t even guilty yet even tho we know he is.

    We all know he broke the law but it hasn’t been proven yet. So I guess the question is, is this how all people deserve to be treated before it’s been demonstrated through due processing that you are guilty?

    What happened to innocent before proven guilty?

    Don’t get me wrong this guy sucks but there’s something to be said about the fact that he’s in JAIL and not prison.
