Joseph Bankman and Barbara Fried — both longtime Stanford Law School professors — are being sued for accepting millions in cash gifts and real estate paid for by FTX debtors.

— both longtime Stanford Law School professors — “exploited their access and influence within the FTX enterprise to enrich themselves, …and knowingly at the expense of debtors.”

“Bankman and Fried also pushed for tens of millions of dollars in political and charitable contributions,” including a donation from FTX’s sister hedge fund, Alameda Research, to the tune of $4 million, “which were seemingly designed to boost Bankman and Fried’s professional and social status at the expense of the FTX Group,” the latest filing said.

The transaction took place from February to March 2022, at which time two wire transfers were initiated from FTX’s digital markets account.
