The Trial of Sam Bankman-Fried: A Young, Eccentric Billionaire's Downfall
TL;DR
The second day of Sam Bankman-Fried's trial included jury selection and opening statements. Bankman-Fried, dressed in a suit, appeared focused on his laptop and shook his leg nervously. After the jury was selected, Bankman-Fried observed them closely. The 12 jurors, ranging in age from 33 to 69, include a physician assistant, nurse, social worker, and retired investment banker. Many jurors seemed unfamiliar with finance and crypto, which may complicate the trial.
