OPINION: The first rule of being under investigation by law enforcement is “shut up.” From the moment that FTX melted down, Sam Bankman-Fried violated Rule Number One daily.

. His statements drove the bankruptcy attorneys representing FTX to publicly state that he was harming the company’s chances to emerge from bankruptcy.about prior statements regarding his philanthropy, SBF responded, “Man, all the dumb shit I said, It’s not true, not really.” When asked about “sketchy stuff” that he had done, he responded, “Each individual decision seemed fine and I didn’t realize how big it was until the end.
