As set forth more fully below, Mr. Bankman-Fried contends in his sentencing submission that, based on a mischaracterization of statements made in the Chapter 11 proceedings by representatives of the FTX debtors, the “harm to customers, lenders, and investors is zero,” because “[t]he money was there—not lost,” and that FTX was solvent at the time that the Chapter 11 petition was filed. As the lead professional of a very large team who has spent over a year stewarding the estate from a metaphorical dumpster fire to a debtor-in- possession approaching a confirmed plan of reorganization that will return substantial value to creditors, I can assure the Court that each of these statements is categorically, callously, and demonstrably false.
That 5th bullet point on page 5 is also remarkable
Amazing. Thank you for guiding me there.
