Michael Lewis met with Sam Bankman-Fried over 100 times, for a book that was intended to simply be about an 'interesting character' - then things take a dramatic turn as Sam is arrested for fraud.

Against Lawyer's Advice, Sam Bankman-Fried is Talking Again - It Isn't Going Well...

Sam is doing interviews again - which is something no CEO in his position has done before.

What Sam doesn't seem to understand is there is no valid reason/excuse for what happened - it's that simple.  Therefore, nothing he says can make it better.

Reaction to his latest interviews have been predictable.

"[Sam is] Either the STUPlDEST man alive, or all those funds donated to lawmaker’s political campaigns is paying off… He’s acting like he’s been told ‘you have nothing to worry about’" Tweeted Crypto Press Association Editor in Chief, Ross Davis.
