Billionaire investor Bill Ackman took to Twitter this week to remind us all that while it sure might look like ex-FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried’s business strategy primarily consisted of playing League of Legends while quietly stealing customer funds, SBF hasn’t actually been convicted of anything yet.
Ackman said his commitment to the presumption of innocence was forged by his own experience as the target of investigations by then-New York prosecutor Eliot Spitzer and the SEC, which ultimately found no wrongdoing but still tarnished his rep.
