SBF prisoner transitions to "legal advisor," providing advice to numerous inmates.

According to a report by The New York Times, FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried has taken on a new "career" as a "legal advisor" in prisons. SBF has now advised numerous individuals, including former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández and music producer Sean Combs. In an interview, he stated that he is helping others in ways that overwhelmed lawyers cannot attend to. SBF said that the standards for federal defense are "shockingly low," and he believes he is not replacing lawyers, but rather that lawyers "are not doing much to begin with." Many lawyers are too overwhelmed with cases to give their clients sufficient attention.

SBF is currently serving his sentence in a California prison while appealing his case and seeking a pardon from the President of the United States.
