Sam Bankman-Fried, the former CEO of FTX, admitted that his biggest mistake was handing control of the company to new management before its bankruptcy, which he claims cost him a chance to save the firm. Following the collapse of FTX and its sister company Alameda Research, Bankman-Fried is serving a 25-year sentence for multiple felony charges. The company has since been working to repay creditors, with billions already distributed, and is estimated to have up to $16.5 billion in recoverable assets.

Prosecutors have the discretion to determine whom they charge, and as they continue to review the case, evidence may emerge that could implicate the parents.
