Caroline Ellison, former chief executive officer of Alameda Research LLC, was sentenced Tuesday for helping Sam Bankman-Fried cover up FTX's fraudulent misuse of customer funds.
US District Judge Lewis Kaplan noted that he is allowed to show Ellison leniency for providing "substantial assistance to the government." He then confirmed that he always considered the maximum sentence she faced of 110 years to be "absurd," considering that Ellison had no inconsistencies in her testimony and fully cooperated with the government throughout their FTX probe.
"I've seen a lot of cooperators in 30 years," Kaplan said. "I've never seen one quite like Ms. Ellison."
No honor among thieves.
[Kaplan] called Bankman-Fried her "Kryptonite" because the FTX co-founder so easily exploited such a "very strong person."
[US attorney Damian] Williams praised Ellison as exceptionally forthcoming, even alerting the government to criminal activity that they didn't even know about yet. He also credited her for persevering as a truth-teller "despite harsh media and public scrutiny and Bankman-Fried's efforts to publicly weaponize her personal writings to discredit and intimidate her."
"The Government cannot think of another cooperating witness in recent history who has received a greater level of attention and harassment," Williams wrote.
Geez, the government is really trying to get in her pants.

Excuse me, she used her agency to buy her way out of hard prison time by rolling over and singing like a canary on her bossfriend. If that's not acting responsibly to get yourself out of trouble, I don't know what is.

I hope she was smart enough to stash some shit in Vietnam or Kazakhstan.
Personally I'd choose Kazakhstan as my non-extradition refuge. The former Soviet states know how to keep their mouths shut, and there's great mountain activities there. It's basically Wyoming but worse in every way.
