Is Bankman-Fried a flight risk the way Do Kwon has proven to be?

Of course he is. He will be hammered with lawsuits etc. If he didn’t flee already.

His company is already based in the Bahamas, how much further could he fly?

They just handed back a bunch of oil executives so I doubt they'd be up for harbouring a fugitive.

He wouldn't be safe from US authorities in the Bahamas. They'd happily turn him over. The US Navy leases a lot of land on Andros for a Navy base that is a significant part of their GDP iirc.

It seems a bad idea to me to fly to a country with sparse protections after losing a bunch of sketchy people's money. Prison > Murder
