Disgraced former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried has submitted a list of proposed jury questions to a Manhattan federal court as he prepares for his upcoming fraud trial.<\/p>\n

According to a Bloomberg report from Tuesday, some of the questions aim to gauge potential jurors’ attitudes towards crypto, political donations, and “effective altruism,” an approach to charitable donations that Bankman-Fried was a proponent of.<\/p>\n

What questions were asked?<\/h2>\n

One of the suggested questions asked “If a company involved in the cryptocurrency industry or the financial industry fails, do you feel that only the owners of the company must be to blame?”<\/p>\n

The proposed questionnaire also included questions about jurors’ knowledge of FTX and Bankman-Fried, their experience with crypto trading, their opinions on \u201camassing wealth to improve the world and help others,\u201d and whether they have any experience with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).<\/p>\n

Bankman-Fried takes medication for ADHD, and his lawyers reportedly want the jury to be aware of how the condition can affect his behavior.<\/p>\n

Jury questions are a standard part of trial proceedings and provide insights into potential issues that may arise during the case.<\/p>\n

Trial to begin October 3<\/h2>\n

The trial against the former exchange boss is set to begin on October 3, with Judge Lewis A. Kaplan overseeing the jury selection process.<\/p>\n

As is standard practice, both prosecutors and defense attorneys will have the opportunity to dismiss jurors they believe may not be favorable to their respective sides.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, Bankman-Fried\u2019s legal team once again requested a pre-trial release for their client due to poor internet access in the federal jail that prevents him from properly preparing for the trial.<\/p>\n

“Despite the government’s efforts, there does not appear to be a way to solve the internet access problem in the cellblock. The defendant cannot prepare for trial with these kinds of limitations,” SBF’s lawyers wrote in the request.<\/p>\n

Initially, Bankman-Fried was allowed to prepare for his defense from his parent’s home in Palo Alto, California, albeit with some restrictions on his internet access.<\/p>\n

However, he was taken into custody at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Manhattan on August 11 over concerns about possible witness tampering.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
