It gets worse. Lewis is now saying that the jury should read his book, and that either the jury will acquit SBF, or they will "lynch" him. He's evidently convinced that SBF did nothing wrong.

I wasn't aware that reading a hagiography on the main suspect is now a requirement for jury duty. It would seem that the judge might have a thing or two to say about that.

I haven't read the book but was inclined to give Lewis the benefit of the doubt given Matt Levine's take and Lewis' other work, but that Time interview really shifted my opinion. Lewis comes off terrible in that. The folks saying he got taken in by SBF make a lot more sense to me now.
