Michelle Bond Loses Bid to Dismiss FTX-Linked Campaign Charges, Faces Trial on $400K Allegation

According to CourtListener, US District Judge George Daniels rejected Michelle Bond's attempt to dismiss criminal charges stemming from her 2022 congressional campaign. Bond, wife of former FTX executive Ryan Salame, allegedly received approximately $400,000 through a consulting arrangement with FTX and used the funds to support her campaign. She faces four charges including conspiracy to make unlawful political contributions and accepting excessive campaign contributions, each carrying a maximum prison sentence of five years. The judge ruled prosecutors never promised Bond immunity in exchange for Salame's guilty plea, and the case now proceeds to trial.
