      She was given extreme leniency because she was the main cooperator with police. There would be no FTX case wihout her. She seemed relieved when it all got cracked open and she seemed remorseful in her interviews and testimonies. So she at least demonstrated remorse enough to convince the police and the court. Whether it’s genuine remorse or alligator tears doesn’t matter as much as her contribution to getting the bigger fish caught, though. Rewarding cooperators an essential piece of the justice machine.
