UnitedHealth Group CEO Brian Thompson’s alleged murderer, Luigi Mangione, is now in the same jail as disgraced former FTX CEO, Sam Bankman-Fried. After several media notifications following his potential destination, Mangione arrived in New York and will be remanded at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
Coincidentally, former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried is also housed in the same jail. Bankman-Fried is currently serving a 25-year sentence for his part in the collapse of his firm.
Aside from Bankman-Fried, another high-profile individual in the same detention center is famous music producer Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, who is facing charges of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking offenses. Combs, who is reportedly sharing a space with Bankman-Fried, is also engaging in the services of the former crypto company’s CEO.
UnitedHealth Group CEO’s shooter remanded in solitary confinement
Before its collapse, FTX was one of the biggest crypto exchanges globally, providing all kinds of services to its users. Aside from its buying and selling services, users were allowed to bet on the price of diverse tokens and assets listed on the platform. However, things turned sour in 2022, when the exchange went bankrupt leading to billions of dollars going up in smoke.
Bankman-Fried was later arrested in connection with the collapse, and after months of protracted legal tussle, he was subsequently sentenced to jail.
Meanwhile, Mangione was charged as the key suspect in the murder of the UnitedHealth Group CEO. The executive was murdered on December 4, in New York, with the murder and the manhunt that followed making global headlines. According to details, the police tracked and arrested Mangione at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania some days later. Prosecutors noted that Mangione had been orchestrating the murder months before he carried out the act, citing contempt for the CEO as his motive.
According to a prison consultant with knowledge about Mangione’s housing, the suspect, who is still in solitary confinement, could be put in the same place with both SBF and Combs by Monday. Mangione is in solitary confinement, in a small cinderblock Special Housing Unit called ‘the SHU’ or ‘the hole’, according to the official. Mangione is expected to have his meals in the cells, with only an hour of recreation or showering and guards are to check on him at 15-minute intervals. If found guilty, the Judge may rule on a possible death penalty for the suspect.
SBF is doing well in jail as FTX releases repayment deadline
Sam Bankman-Fried is reportedly doing well in jail, with several reports saying that he is being treated well. A recent interview with Williams Cohan of Puck News showed the former FTX CEO is still in great spirits. With SBF set to serve 25 years in jail, he may only serve half if he keeps up good behavior.
He appealed his fraud charges in September, attacking the judge who oversaw his conviction. SBF had been found guilty of allegations against him by a federal jury, as he attempted to steal $8 billion from users of his crypto exchange. In his appeal, his legal counsel pointed at the ruling’s limitation on SBF’s ability to introduce new materials integral to his case, noting that the judge already presumed him guilty.
FTX, on its part, has released its repayment timeline, announcing the date and method of repaying its creditors. With the announcement, the firm is nearing the end of its Chapter 11 Bankruptcy proceedings. The exchange’s approved date will take effect on January 3, giving the platform a 60-day window to commence repayments.
In its announcement, the repayments will be facilitated through Kraken and BitGo, with users expected to finalize their KYC verifications and onboard on the selected exchanges.
