A federal appeals court upheld Sam Bankman-Fried's fraud conviction and 25-year prison sentence, confirming the 2023 trial's fairness and the strength of the government's evidence.

A federal appeals court upheld the fraud conviction of FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried, affirming his 25-year prison sentence.

The Justice Department is investigating E. Jean Carroll for potential perjury in her civil litigation against Donald Trump, who accused her of making up assault claims.

The U.S. Supreme Court is likely to address a Trump administration policy allowing indefinite detention without bond for immigrants who crossed the border illegally, as appeals courts have split on its constitutionality.
