Just one day before the hearing at the US house? very interesting. Why not let him talk if he was going to incriminate himself more? Somebody sure didn't want him to talk tomorrow...

Apparently he was not going to testify.

That article says he was scheduled to testify before the House ("Bankman-Fried is scheduled to appear at a House Financial Services Committee hearing on Tuesday that will focus on his company's collapse") while refusing to testify before the Senate.

Whatever, he's been talking plenty in Twitter Spaces, pretty much confessing to co-mingling funds.

None of that was under auth.
"the prosecutor: but you said this on Twitter?"
"SBF: I was no longer the CEO of FTX and I was just kidding".

Your honor, my client confessed to the murder while in police custody, in fact -- we have it on tape. But we're not allowed to use it since it was not under oath. Shucks.

You don’t have to be under oath for it to be evidence.

Or the feds knew he was secretly planning to flee or something else. Hard to tell.
Though I do wish he had testified and further incremented himself.
