A U.S. judge has banned former FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried from contacting current and former employees
Federal prosecutors asked for this ruling, as they believe Bankman-Fried may tamper with witnesses or destroy evidence in his criminal fraud case.
It was revealed the 30-year-old tried to send a message to someone known as ‘Witness 1″ a few weeks ago, proposing to have a constructive conversation with them.
Bankman-Fried was arrested in December on charges of looting billions of dollars of FTX customer funds, and lying to investors and lenders.
