Judge Grants 45-Day Prison Delay for Former FTX Executive Mauled by German Shepherd

In a ruling from the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, federal judge Lewis A. Kaplan approved a 45-day delay for former FTX Digital Markets Ltd. executive Ryan Salame to commence his 90-month prison sentence. The deferment was granted after Salame suffered a facial mauling by a German Shepherd. According to Mark E. Bini, a partner at Reed Smith and a former federal prosecutor, such postponements for medical reasons are common, as defendants often aim to address health issues pre-incarceration due to the generally inadequate medical care in prisons.
