In a recording of an all-hands meeting, Sam Bankman-Fried’s ex Caroline Ellison blamed him for FTX’s collapse

• Prosecutors shared a key piece of evidence in the case against FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried.
• An employee recorded Caroline Ellison blaming him for using customer funds, per a new filing.
• Bankman-Fried was remanded to prison in New York last week for leaking Ellison’s diary entries.

Federal prosecutors said that Caroline Ellison, a top affiliate and ex of FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried, blamed the embattled cryptocurrency mogul for using FTX customer deposits in a recording from a company meeting.

In a revelatory new court filing laying out evidence on Monday, prosecutors said that they had obtained and planned to use a covert recording made by an Alameda Research employee during an all-hands meeting, where Ellison directly blamed Bankman-Fried for using customer money as the company imploded.
