i'm just too anxious for cross. the government is champing at the bit to go after him, and he does not handle actual questioning well.

near as i can tell, the defense is going to be 'i was just giving orders, i cannot be held responsible for the crimes of the people carrying them out'

I think they're going for a sort of nullification type appeal to the jury? As in "you know how you just do what your lawyer tells you to do when you buy a house? That's what I did! And sure instead of buying a house I defrauded thousands of people, and the lawyer I hired was a convicted felon, but I tried my best!"

I think his defense is just scattergun. Get everything in there. We were doing it all for the first time in uncharted territory and didn't really know this was illegal and lawyers said (some of) it was ok and we made mistakes but only ever wanted what was best for the customers and maybe we made mistakes but that doesn't rise to the level of fraud.

The problem is the mountains of evidence contradicting literally every single one of those points. Most of it is undone by just one photo of the loving penthouse he bought, which tells you everything you need to know about the motives at play.

I'm pretty sure I saw somewhere that the judge ruled yesterday that they can't make an "advice of counsel" defence. So I'm not sure what the next plan is.

snakes don't actually unhinge their jaws (and that wouldn't make eating any easier if you think about it), instead they have what's known as a kinetic skull where the jaw bone is split in the middle so the two sides can move independently, and they kinda "walk" the jaw over food to move it backwards

now you too can be bothered for a dumb petty reason every time someone says "unhinge their jaw"

someone was suggesting the defense is stretching things out so that the jury had time to "sit" with the testimony. i'd think you'd want to do the opposite, wouldn't the prosecution have the weekend to figure out the best way to dismantle the testimony?

if yesterday's hearing was any indication, no, the prosecution needs no extra time to tear this paper-thin testimony to shreds, if there is anything to attack after this direct.

Bankman-Fried's testimony should end by Tuesday. Closing statements could happen by Wednesday. And jurors could begin deliberation as early as Thursday.

Two more days of having to listen to this tweaker talk. Everyone in the courtroom will hate his guts by then.

I don't think they're allowed to announce they have a verdict before they move from the courtroom to the deliberation room but they can spend as much or as little time as they want in there

remember, jurors often get fed if they stay more than half a day at court. their only question might be how long they have to "deliberate" to get the stipend and a meal.
