Agreed -- I believe the confusion comes from this sentence in the document:

"Moreover, if the defendant fully complies with the understandings specified in this Agreement, the defendant will not be further prosecuted criminally by this Office for any crimes, except for criminal tax violations, related to her participation in [the FTX scandal]."

IIUC, by "further" they mean "in addition to the 7 counts she pled guilty to [and could serve jailtime for]."

It's not false, it's my conjecture. Ellison just spent a total of 14 hours testifying against SBF and, according to court reporters present, denying her own responsibility for planning the fraud and saying she was simply directed to perform various criminal actions she was not aware the full implications of. It's nonsensical to believe she accepted responsibility for anything more in her plea deal, which will be the sole basis of her sentence.

The charges she faces before the plea deal carried a maximum sentence of 110 years and no mandatory minimum. According to several experts (*, she will likely walk away with no jail time or, at most, a few years in a minimum security jail. The prosecution against her was basically stayed - again, my conjecture - as we will find out in a few weeks time.

No, it's just false. She pleaded guilty to 7 charges already. We don't know what she'll be sentenced to for those crimes. That's a completely separate issue. She's already pleaded guilty. The source is the Justice Department.
