Is it really that allowed on having at least giving sometime on doing all the things he do want before getting jailed totally? The do paid up the bail and i dont believe that it is really just good for
those limits or restrictions towards its actions and lots of questions raised up specially into those people who were affected with this FTX bankruptcy.
The picture do even shows that he is free as a bird with those actions and you cant blame out people on having those questions.

I'm honestly a little confused as Reuters/Yahoo! reported that the terms of his bail would mean he would have to remain indoors:

Nicolas Roos, a prosecutor, told U.S. Magistrate Judge Gabriel Gorenstein that the bail package would require Bankman-Fried to surrender his passport and remain in home confinement at his parents' home in Palo Alto, California. He would also be required to undergo regular mental health treatment and evaluation.

Are we sure this image of him at an airport is current and not from prior to his arrest?  Or are they using a plane to send him back to his parents?  Either way, he's not completely free.

This part of the news article that says that he is required to undergo mental health treatment and evaluation might find something that will lower his sentence. If everyone remembers, some of the other news articles mentioned Sam and his team took amphetamines for more productivity when they were working in the office. However, there are some types of amphetamines that can turn some people into impulsive gamblers.

I reckon Sam's lawyer can use this as a plead for a type of temporary insanity because he was under the influence of drugs.
