Ryan Salame to Resume Prison Sentence Two Days Earlier 

A US court granted the government’s motion to move Ryan Salame’s surrender date up to Oct 11. The former FTX Market executive was expected to resume his prison sentence on Oct 13. Salame was sentenced to 7.5 years after pleading guilty to engaging in conspiracy bordering on unlicensed money-transmitting activities among others. 

At a Sept 12 hearing, the prosecution informed the court that US Marshals informed that Oct 13 is a Sunday thereby requesting a move to Friday Oct 11. The embattled former executive is yet to commence jail term following a 45-day request after suffering a dog bite on his face. According to his legal representatives, the extension was needed to undergo urgent surgery and related treatment.
