FTX’s lawyers requested Judge John Dorsey in the District of Delaware allow them to question Joseph Bankman, Barbara Fried, and Gabriel Bankman-Fried — the father, mother, and brother of SBF, respectively — under oath about any financial benefits they may have received from the exchange. Other FTX executives could reportedly be subject to the same line of questioning in an effort to track down assets tied to the bankrupt crypto exchange.
It’s unclear whether questioning the family members, should Judge Dorsey approve issuing subpoenas, would result in ‘hidden’ funds associated with FTX being discovered by investigators. Joseph Bankman has already reportedly hired an attorney amid his son’s criminal case, but testimony here would fall under FTX’s bankruptcy proceedings.
