Former FTX executive Ryan Salame has requested U.S. authorities to void his guilty plea. One key condition of his plea was that if he admitted to money-transmitting crimes, U.S. authorities would stop investigating his partner Michelle Bond. However, this agreement has not been honored according to Salame's lawyers.
The court filing details that discrepancies in the agreed terms have led Salame to seek withdrawal of his guilty plea.
Salame's request underscores the importance of adhering to plea agreements and the impact unmet terms can have on legal proceedings.
