Best wishes to you Caroline. I think if you had never met SBF you would be in this predicament.
Oh please., She was an Executuve of the company .She could have walked away or blown the whistle.Thats what a strong independent woman would do.Instead she knowly participated and braged about polyamorous relationships and drug use.This ridiculous double standard for women is why feminism is not taken seriously and despised.
@Kevdee Aabsolutely Kevin, Another Girl Boss headed to prison..
I agree. Do I think she would have become a felon if they never met? Probably not.
Those reporters on the steps are totally harassing this witness’s physical space.
Like how many photos do they need. I of course agree she deserves all this but so many different photos of her. Smart people wasting their brains.
Lol did she had a Sikh bodyguard there?
Legendary
The next playboy model.
She rocking that grandma look😂
What ethnic background is she from? What about Sam? What about the SEC guy? What ethnic background are they all?
not relevant.
Keep looking and it will become relevant@Dan Hintz
They’re just white.
ellison is white anglo saxon protestant name
She looks like Jesus.
Thanks for not calling the CEO of Alameda was just SBF’s girlfriend. These folks stole and lied on a massive level.
Sbf belongs in jail. This is not complicated… HE COMMITED FRAUD.anyone who goes to school for business knows this is a classic case of fraud. I forgot your just a reporter.. not a judge
So if SBF was manipulating the market to help try to keep Bitcoin below $20,000 by simply selling it off he not only took people from who invested within his own company but for those who have been invested in other altcoins and Bitcoin he is a complete POS in my book
The Twinkie. Her and SBF doing the horizontal tango.
Ellison graduated from Stanford University in 2016 with a bachelor’s degree in mathematics. While attending Stanford, Ellison began her career in quantitative trading with two internships at Jane Street, a proprietary trading firm in New York City. She is the eldest of three daughters of Glenn and Sara Fisher Ellison, both economists at MIT. She knew exactly what she was doing.
She wanted those dollars. So altruistic.
Damn sounds like a school how to teach legal ponzi schemes. Did the degree come with we will start your own MLM
Those photographers should be ashamed of themselves. It’s a disgrace to behave like that.
Like what?
Ellison shouldn’t get away with everything. What is her penalty?
I only care about the “tokenized” GME stock anyone else ????
Poor Caroline, feel bad for her for getting into the wrong car the first time
Wrong Uber driver.
Exactly how is this complicated? It’s called embezzlement.
Yea I don’t know. It seems like a lot of people around her and SBF are trying to act dumb and confuse people with idiotic statements. It’s just a simple case of greed, theft, and lies. They made a lot of people wealthy, so naturally these people don’t want to be found out and forced to give their money back. So they all come up with contradicting statements and lies to confuse people. But none of it is going to work. If you watch a few of his interviews and pick a few sentences to analyze, it sounds like it’s coming from a complete moron who isn’t making any sense. The choice of words, sentence structure, and the way he says some things almost sound like they’re crafted to confuse the listener any don’t make any fucking sense at all. His whole speech pattern is one giant red flag.
It also reminds me of Harry Markopolos who saw through Madoff’s lies within minutes and tried to warn the world but no one listened to him. Sure tons of ppl lost a lot of money but those big institutional investors knew exactly what was going on, both in Madoff’s case and here. But they just wanted to get their money out and/or have the correct position before people found out.
I can’t help being reminded of Hyenas as I watch the way the press acts in this video… Scavangers all, feeding off of everything bad to gain their nutrition….
She is not a damsel in distress. She is just as guilty as SBF. She should get at least 20 years.
Caroline says ! Lou REED looks like SBF mom !
Cut Bono; Unless Slim Flam SBF reveals who were his Puppeteer Masters.
does anyone else find that she went into the wrong car hilarious?
Man, this woman didn’t have a clue what kind of sht she was getting herself into…. Only good thing on her side is that she is only 28 years old.
She is an adult and should have known better. When you look at the money involved, just pure greed.😡😡😡
She going to catch 15 with 12 suspended. with 2 years supervised probation only serve 1 year…..But my man SBF going to get hit hard with 30. Crazy part he still going to be rich as fk when he gets out. The Movie going to be crazy. He sells to NetFlex
Lol! Plenty of photography there.😢
Jail Time!😊
Ah, da face that launched a thousand ships…………………to escape it as far away as possible.
Benjamina Button
she’s get older by 20 years,
she know what she was doing she should spend next 25 years in prison
The pressure on the Jury now is who is the less of the 2 evils, Caroline or Sam SBF, you acquit 1 of them but not both, like a duel to death. I hope there is no routine sociopaths in the jury who usually is the 1 single dissident who disagrees with everyone else.
Having trouble understanding something, Was FTX a Brokerage facility or a Bank? Seems if is a Bank, spending customer money is what banks do, list customer money as a liability then use customer money to give loans, pay bills, produce a profit, then if they cannot return customer money then that is a run on the bank. If FTX is a brokerage facility then customer money should be kept separate and only fees extracted, was it registered as such and under SEC jurisdiction. Was FTX something else, not a bank and not a brokerage facility, then which rules apply, I don’t know where crypto falls, somewhere between fantasy currencies with fantasy rules.
I can’t believe they’re putting Olive Oil in prison.
Caroline Ellison – what a natural beauty.
