Sam Bankman-Fried, the disgraced cryptocurrency mogul, has embarked on a long-shot campaign to secure a pardon from the Trump administration, according to six people with knowledge of the matter. The effort is being driven by a small group of Bankman-Fried’s supporters, including his parents, Joe Bankman and Barbara Fried, who are trying to help their son escape the 25-year prison sentence he received after being convicted of fraud, conspiracy and money laundering in the collapse of his crypto exchange, FTX.
