  4. U.S. prosecutors have denied allegations of breaching a plea agreement with former FTX executive Ryan Salame. New filings reveal his alleged involvement in bribery and misuse of personal information.

    Allegations of Breach of Agreement

    The Southern District of New York prosecutors filed a document on September 5 denying Salame’s claims that they breached their agreement over felony campaign finance violations. Although Salame withdrew his motion on August 29, a hearing is scheduled for September 12. The document alleges that the government threatened to prosecute his partner Michelle Bond and sought to dismiss charges or overturn her conviction.

    Upcoming Hearing and Delayed Sentencing

    Ryan Salame pleaded guilty to conspiracy to make illegal political contributions and operating an unlicensed money-transmitting business. He is due to report on October 13 for a delayed sentencing due to a medical emergency. Michelle Bond, a Republican candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in 2022, faces charges related to funding her campaign with allegedly illegal funds. Salame argues that during plea negotiations, he was assured that government investigations against Bond would be dropped.

    New Allegations Against Salame

    New allegations against Salame include involvement in a bribery scheme to unlock funds tied to Alameda Research. Notes from an April 2023 video conference suggest Salame may have used accounts opened under false identities and bribed Thai prostitutes. This revelation puts Salame under suspicion of attempting to bribe Chinese officials to unlock large sums of money.

    As the case against Ryan Salame progresses, additional facts and evidence are expected to be presented in hearings scheduled for October 13.
