Sam Bankman-Fried's Mommy and Daddy Have a New Plan: Suck Up to Trump Until He Pardons Her Beautiful Boy
Briefly

Sam Bankman-Fried, the co-founder of FTX, is now imprisoned for fraud, and his parents are seeking a pardon from Trump. They have reportedly met with lawyers in Trump’s circle, highlighting their continued support for their son’s innocence despite evidence against him. The couple, Joseph Bankman and Barbara Fried, have previously defended their son vehemently in public, even displaying emotional reactions during his trial. Their current endeavors in Trumpworld suggest a strategic move to appeal for clemency for their son amid a chaotic political backdrop.
"It takes a lifetime to build up a reputation as honorable people," Fried wrote in her angry email to the magazine, expressing deep concern for her son's character and the trial's implications.
The Bankman-Frieds, who have met with Trump lawyers about a potential pardon for their son, have long insisted on his innocence despite personal lawsuits related to his actions.
