SBF's sentencing is 'almost more interesting than the trial itself', says Puck's Teddy Schleifer

Teddy Schleifer, Puck founding partner, joins 'Squawk Box' to preview former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried's sentencing today, why he believes the sentencing is more interesting than the trial itself, what the sentencing says about the criminal justice system at large, and more.

Stop being soft on SBF.

[@christopherkeefe7716]

Millions of people have been affected by this he needs to do at least 20 years

[@graybush10]

Give him 50 years!!!!

[@babayagalight]

A mother without money to care for her children because SBF stole her money still has to care for her children. Where has she obtained that money since the time it was taken? Why should she believe she will receive full repayment with interest?

[@allyour80smuzik13]

?//the whole story sounds bogus. why would such desperate mother in the first place yolo her desperate money on crypto ? such a bs from that anchor

[@Lyaworski123]

You do the crime you do the time! Doesn’t matter if he’s on the spectrum! Why even bring that up? Trying to get sympathy!

[@halibuthero]

SBF should rot in prison for the rest of his life.

[@christopherkeefe7716]

If he doesn’t have the emotion like you, then he won’t be upset about going to prison

[@govindagovindaji4662]

I was thinking about that. If he cannot experience joy then maybe he cannot experience sadness either. I think the worst of it for him will be frustration being disconnected from video games and the computer in general. He's likely to spend his time designing games to patent and market. According to Tiffany Fong (who reports on SBF on You Tube and is pretty close to his situation as she interviewed him in his home while he was on bail) says that he is getting along pretty well in prison and she even got a picture of him with his new crew. One fellow inmate who's since been released did an interview with her too ~ about SBF ~ and he said he only had to knock back off the harassment of SBF once or twice, by other inmates and now he's got friends. He even teaches inmates about crypto. He can advise them what to do when they get out, and their families' from inside likely, and probably get paid for doing it. It WILL BE HELL for a mind like his however, but he'll regain the title of Crypto-King, no doubt.

[@christopherkeefe7716]

@@govindagovindaji4662 cool maybe I’ll write him a letter and get some crypto advice to get my kids college fund back😠

[@danOH112]

Why’s he’s defending sbf so hard.

[@sheldonlarin]

Why … ? Having this dumb dude debate on the “ethics “ of Sam sentences …. Sounds like his sociopath Mother 👿justification

[@anthonybennett2321]

Exactly. Cut from the same cloth.

[@scottk3691]

CNBC also had this guy on their network like he was a guest chief teaching your how to make cranberry sauce for Thanksgiving.

[@theonewhowas7709]

its crazy that they're even talking about his feelings in all this WTF.... the mf knew exactly what he was doing.. THATS THE POINT.... he knew what he was doing...

[@adiintel1]

30 years minimum he hurt alot of people. and he knew what he was doing was wrong.

[@govindagovindaji4662]

00:28 Pucks Teddy Schliffer is the coolest name I ever heard.

[@user-bq8iw7pm6w]

The establishment should give him a bail out ?

[@EmitOcean20]

Wow, the guest was right on on what he was hearing and knowing. Good guest CNBC.

[@jasonmartin9530]

CNBC knows what their audience likes to hear: Are financial crimes really all that bad? Especially since you have all these blah people committing real crimes and getting out with no bail.

[@lollollin]

I would suggest SBF paying his lawyers all the money for this case 25 years later , they will get their money back in the future anyways

[@mattp9457]

Nobody was made whole!!! Where is this guy getting his facts from??

[@AnonymousHillbilly]

SBF will have to serve 85% of his sentence. He will receive 54 good days per year. Unless some reforms are made of course, that is the best he could hope for.

[@RWB20]

Who is this guy? An SME??? If you're an investor- there is risk. The investors knew that going in. You win. You lose. That's investing. Sam is a criminal. Go to jail for 50 years or more. Don't be a criminal. It is a risk. You win. You lose. Jail is dangerous. DONT BE A CRIMINAL. Geez, hire me as your SME.

[@davidbamberr]

He's the least of my worries. We have selective justice in America. Trump, George Bush, Hillary, Obama and people on the Epstein list are all walking free.

[@Louise-gg4mf]

Is your guest kidding. If SBF were black I believe he would not have the same opinion. An elitist.

[@graybush10]

If he didn't get caught you would never see that money....Brady!!

[@dezions3]

What the analyst are missing is people lost money on other exchanges not just FTX because he caused billions of losses because people dumped on those exchanges. They are not mentioning the losses .

[@refusingtocurbmyenthusiasm]

There are 33 integers between 40 and 6, not 34 Teddy. You've been convicted on count of math slaughter

[@hentaicrypto]

is he getting 33 years or 34 years for it?

[@bob___]

On sentencing, remember that the prisons are full of people who were involved in the drug business, which is illegal solely because of an obviously failed government policy. The country knowingly sentences people to spend many years in an environment where they can be assaulted at any time, and the guards are completely aware that this is happening. Judges, knowing this, sentence people to prison on a weekly, if not a daily, basis, and they do this to people who have caused far less harm than Sam Bankman-Fried.

[@994pt4]

He won't spend anywhere near 25 year...lol And he certainly won't be in a REAL prison!

[@christophercolumbus2106]

Are you going to spam comment this on every video?

[@user-Min-suh]

Seeing the progress Weewu is making reinforces my belief in its potential. This is a long-term hold.

[@rts100x5]

25 YEARS ---- BAAAAAAAAAAAM

[@AnthonyScottGames]

Really man? Still using “allegedly”?! You should shill harder… he should never be allowed out.

[@AverageJoe37]

Can we talk about how he was the largest donor to the Democratic Party during the 2020 election using laundered money? Can we talk about how the SEC let FTX even happen but continues to use tax payers dollars to sue these institutions rather than doing their job and REGULATING crypto?

[@christopherkeefe7716]

300 months in prison is not enough that’s 21.5 years he will actually serve. I want to hear about restitution and the return of all the political contributions he made.

[@FrascoSnary647]

The more I learn about Weewu, the more bullish I get. This project has it all.

[@sheldonlarin]

Who cares about Sam’s feelings … he took my money … your bias is obvious ? Why … scam Sam …

[@babayagalight]

Lots of but, but, but by this group.

[@stephenhosmer9444]

These financial con artists must pay society for their heinous crimes. These types destroy trust in our financial institutions. I also don't feel sorry for the greedy investors in his schemes, addicted to making a killing in crypto-currency. Why don't they now get a REAL job instead? We should tax all of this speculation in our markets!

[@graybush10]

Put Maxine waters with him

[@MatthewMS.]

No one wins here. A true historic American 🇺🇸 Tragic story. I just hope the movie is done well.

[@deanedge5988]

"What Sam Deserves" The most appalling biased irresponsible account dressed up as journalism.

[@louisquatorze9280]

Perhaps Donald will share a cell with Sam, eventually.

[@ttcc5273]

Happy Birthday Alina Habba! Enjoy your posh luxury villa in St. Barts in the sunny Carribean! Glad to know donations to the RNC are being put to good use! 😂🎉

[@ts_uichan]

Weewu's latest integration is a game-changer. This is how you do crypto right.

[@CalleanMor]

After digging into Weewu, I'm convinced it's poised for a breakout. Exciting times ahead!

[@hmofeurotas]

You guys mean CRIPTO "QUEEN" now... he is in jail... he just doesn;t look like "KING" material for the jail life, BUT A "queen" YES!, ps THEY WILL LSO TAKE CARE OF YOUR fro" bro! hahahahahahaha

[@m.s.biteth1164]

Throw his life away. Jail his awful parents as they are complicit - or, some marksman needs to take care of them.
