The trial at the Manhattan federal court has finally unveiled the dark side of an economic crime to the world. On March 28th, during the trial, SBF was sentenced to 25 years in prison, a judgment that has sparked widespread attention and discussion.
First, let's take a look at Judge Kaplan's perspective. He clearly pointed out that SBF's actions have caused significant losses, not only to investors but also to lenders. Moreover, he is not merely a simple financial criminal but also involved in serious obstruction of justice, such as attempting to interfere with witnesses. The judge's words were filled with condemnation of SBF's actions and sympathy for the victims. Then there was the statement from defense lawyer Mukasey. He attempted to defend SBF, emphasizing his kindness and contributions to society. However, even so, it cannot be denied that SBF's actions have resulted in enormous losses, and his conduct during the trial is not entirely deserving of sympathy.
The defendant SBF also expressed his own views during the trial. He admitted his mistakes but also tried to justify himself, stating that he was not a heartless financial serial killer but rather someone who just wanted to make a positive impact on the world. His remarks were full of reflection on his past and hope for the future. Finally, Prosecutor Roos also presented his views. He emphasized the actual harm caused by SBF's actions to the victims and urged the court to make a harsh judgment to ensure that similar crimes do not occur again. |
