The defense team of Sam Bankman-Fried, the founder and former CEO of bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX, objected to some of the questions proposed by the US Department of Justice (DoJ) to potential jurors in a court filing, claiming that these questions could prejudice the jurors or convince them that Bankman-Fried is guilty before the trial even begins. Sam Bankman-Fried’s Attorney Objects to Questions Proposed by the US Department of Justice Mark Cohen, one of Bankman-Fried’s attorneys, stated in the court filing, “In general, the questions proposed by the government prevent potential jurors from providing a full explanation, hinder the defense from discovering potential jury bias, and risk tarnishing the jury by presenting the allegations in a biased manner.” Cohen emphasized that the defense team’s use of the term ‘alleged’ when describing the crimes Bankman-Fried is accused of is appropriate, as it implies that Bankman-Fried’s fraud is an established fact.
