CoinVoice has recently learned that on October 26, according to the Wall Street Journal, Sam Bankman-Fried's defense team asked the judge presiding over the case to make a not guilty verdict, saying that prosecutors failed to prove the charges. This is a request that the defense usually makes after the government adjourns. The judge rejected the request, which means that the trial will continue and the defense will soon begin to present its case. [Original link]
