US Judge Rejects FTX Founder Sam Bankman-Fried’s Bail Modification Request

U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan, of the Southern District of New York, said the motion is “denied without prejudice” until a hearing on Thursday. An attorney for Bankman-Fried requested on Monday that he be allowed to use certain unencrypted messaging applications, as well as WhatsApp with the use of monitoring software.
