Federal prosecutors have written a letter to a judge condemning Sam Bankman-Fried, saying he is harassing his co-defendant and ex-girlfriend Caroline Ellison by talking with The New York Times.

for an article published by the newspaper on Thursday. U.S. attorneys describe them as “extrajudicial statements” and an “attempt to interfere with a fair trial by impartial jury,” saying the article, headlined “Inside the Private Writings of Caroline Ellison, Star Witness in the FTX Case,”

has the potential to “taint the jury pool, and could have a chilling effect on witnesses.” The letter, first reported by Politico’s Josh Gerstein, asks U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan to introduce an order “that limits extrajudicial statements by parties and witnesses likely to interfere with a fair trial by an impartial jury.” While thearticle does not name its source, the prosecutors say “it is apparent” that it was Bankman-Fried.
