The fresh allegations further burden Bankman-Fried already under severe stress.<h3 id="decades-in-prison-if-found-guilty">Decades in Prison If Found Guilty</h3>The trial for SBF is set to begin on October 2, and if he is found guilty, he faces decades in prison. Bribery of a public official is punishable by up to 15 years in federal prison and a fine of up to three times the amount of the bribe, according to U.S. law. At Thursday’s hearing, federal prosecutors also gave an update on their investigation into seven of Bankman-Fried’s electronic devices.Prosecutors told the court that the procedure was taking longer than expected because of the massive amount of data being processed. Over 6 million pages of paperwork have been generated so far in the probe into the subject.Bankman-Fried is now under house arrest with his parents in Palo Alto, California, after making a staggering $250 million bail. In order to prevent the defendant, SBF, from influencing witnesses, Judge Kaplan approved new bail terms for the defendant earlier this week.
