Federal prosecutors on Wednesday asked a judge to have Sam Bankman-Fried jailed ahead of his trial over the collapse of his FTX cryptocurrency exchange, saying he had 'crossed a line' by communicating too often with the press and trying to intimidate a witness.

At a hearing before U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan in Manhattan federal court, prosecutor Danielle Sassoon from the U.S. Attorney's office said Bankman-Fried has had more than 1,000 phone calls with journalists. Mark Cohen, a lawyer for Bankman-Fried, said his client was trying merely to protect his reputation, and that it "really would be almost impossible" to prepare for trial if Bankman-Fried were jailed.
Bankman-Fried has pleaded not guilty to charges he stole billions of dollars in FTX customer funds to plug losses at Alameda,John Ray, FTX's current chief executive, had been among those witnesses, but prosecutors said they do not intend to call him to testify.
