The trial of Sam Bankman-Fried has started on Oct.3, and the first day was jury selection with opening arguments to follow on Wednesday. The trial is expected to last up to six weeks.
The case is being heard by Judge Lewis Kaplan, who has presided over many other high-profile cases, including ones involving detainees at Guantanamo Bay, the Gambino crime family, Prince Andrew and Donald Trump.
On the first day of the trial, U.S. Government prosecutors told the court that no plea deals had ever been under consideration.
SBF is charged with seven counts of conspiracy and fraud, and he has pleaded not guilty to all charges. If he's found guilty of all seven criminal counts and is given the maximum sentence, SBF would face the prospect of 110 years in prison.
