DOJ wants SBF’s bail revoked over witness tampering, diary leak allegations

According to a July 28 court filing, the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) is looking for the revocation of Sam Bankman-Frieds (SBF) bail, implicating him of trying to tamper with witnesses and leaking Caroline Ellisons diary to The New York Times.The DOJ keeps in mind that SBF was released on a bond on Dec. 22, 2022, but later on asked for multiple bail modifications. He could see SBFs actions as an effort to improperly select and affect witnesses to either make further modifications to his bail conditions or revoke his bail entirely.Related: Sam Bankman-Frieds legal group turns over docs related to NYT story, demands they be sealedHe argued that Kaplan would face a tough decision in this case.
