BlockBeats news, on December 4, Dubai venture capital firm IBC Group founder and CEO Mario Nawfal posted on social media, saying, “When I spoke with SBF about the collapse of FTX (the interview will be released soon), he shared an unexpected story with me. SBF’s former cellmate, former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández, was just pardoned by Trump. Last June, he was sentenced in the US to 45 years in prison for drug trafficking and illegal possession of firearms. SBF said: ‘I lived in the same prison block as Juan Orlando for a year and a half. I got to know him pretty well. I’d like to think we became friends. I can’t think of any inmate more deserving of a pardon; he was set up.’ SBF spent a lot of time helping Hernández prepare for trial and reviewing related evidence. SBF said: ‘Not only is he not a drug lord, he might be the most effective anti-drug organization leader in the world. Juan Orlando is the most innocent inmate I’ve ever seen, including myself.’ The pardon happened just days before the Honduran elections on November 30, with Trump supporting National Party candidate Nasry Asfura, the same party as Hernández.”
