Prosecutors in SBF Case Want a 40 to 50-Year Sentence. 

On Friday, Federal prosecutors in the Sam Bankman-Fried fraud case want him to serve 40 to 50 years in prison. He faces a possible maximum sentence of 110 years. According to a report in the New York Times, the federal probation service has recommended that SBF face 100 years in prison, which equates to a life sentence. SBF’s lawyers, unsurprisingly, are calling for a much more lenient sentence of six and a half years.  I would have to assume that SBF’s sentence will be in the 40 or 50-year range, given the extent of the fraud he committed.
