How Did Sam Bankman-Fried Get Bail?
Ken's media partner Josh Barro sums this up in a way that makes a lot of sense to me:  This is, in various ways, unfair. But the point of the bail system isn’t doing 
  justice. It’s ensuring that people show up for trial.

I hear a lot of movie theater plots about SBF evading trial, but he's a goober, and whatever happens, he's going to wind up in prison, and the threads here about his bail are in retrospect going to read a little silly.
