Odaily News The U.S. Department of Justice opposes the latest motion for pretrial release of SBF because the proposed conditions do not meet the legal requirements for the defendant (there are strict restrictions), and said that the argument that SBF cannot effectively participate in the defense work is very vague. Given the experience of its legal team, these arguments are untenable. (CoinDesk) According to previous news on September 26, SBF’s defense team re-submitted an application for temporary release against SBF on the grounds that it is difficult to prepare an adequate defense under the current restrictions. The legal team said the SBFs knowledge and involvement were critical in reviewing thousands of pages of investigative materials and financial records involving complex matters. To mitigate possible flight risk concerns, the defense proposed conditions such as private security personnel escorting SBF between approved locations and restricting his use of communications devices during his interim release, and the defense indicated a willingness to accept any additional conditions deemed necessary by the court. limit.
