Sam Bankman-Fried's doing surprisingly well in prison: Reporter

In this article:

Former FTX executive Ryan Salame has been sentenced on Tuesday to seven and a half years in prison, longer than the defense and prosecution had requested. The FTX insider is reportedly being transferred to a California facility.

Puck News Founding Partner William Cohan joins Market Domination Overtime to give insight into the FTX saga and his interview with Sam Bankman-Fried in prison.

Cohan describes Bankman-Fried's current state in prison: "He's only been convicted since last year, and his sentence was in March. So I actually found him in better spirits than I thought he'd be, quite honestly, he said that he's actually been treated pretty well, which, I mean, or at least not badly. We've all seen the prison movies. We know sort of the gestalt of prison life. It's probably not something any of us would want to experience, but he seemed pretty, pretty good frame of mind. Frankly, I'm a little surprised."
