 <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">The allegations against the embattled former billionaire have changed several times. Prosecutors recently dropped multiple charges that had not been agreed upon during his extradition from the Bahamas in December, according to an extradition treaty with the Caribbean nation. Bankman-Fried still faces accusations of campaign finance corruption, but this is not a separate charge in the latest indictment.</span></p> 
 <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Bankman-Fried’s defense</span><span data-preserver-spaces="true">&nbsp;team has raised concerns about their client’s well-being in federal lockup. They reported that he has been having difficulty accessing prescription medication and maintaining a vegan diet.&nbsp;</span></p> 
 <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">His lawyers requested accommodations for his dietary needs and access to Adderall, a drug he takes for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. They also noted that the prison had not provided him with EMSAM, an antidepressant.</span></p>

 <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Bankman-Fried’s attorneys also cited Sixth Amendment rights violations, claiming their client could not properly prepare for trial due to his detention since August 11. They noted that they had only been offered fictional solutions.&nbsp;</span></p>

 <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">The defense argued that without internet access and proper food and medication, Bankman-Fried would struggle to defend himself against what his attorney Mark Cohen described as an especially complex set of charges.</span></p> 
 <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Magistrate Judge Sarah Netburn presided over the hearing. She said she would investigate the issues raised by the defense after the hearing adjourned, to resolve them by the end of the day.</span></p> 
 <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">The trial for Bankman-Fried is set to begin in early October. The prosecution and defense have submitted proposed jury instructions, which provide guidelines on how the judge should explain the charges and allegations to jurors.</span></p>
