..... and on business class AA seat 'as he flies home to California after being freed on $250m bail over $1.8bn crypto scam'
Disgraced Sam Bankman-Fried appears to be living a life of luxury, after pictures of him in an American Airlines lounge and business class seat emerged following his $250 million bond release.
Photos show the accused fraudster Bankman-Fried relaxing at JFK's American Airlines Flagship lounge and later, without shoes, in a business class seat on a AA flight.
The pictures, posted to social media on Friday show two snaps in the lounge with a caption saying that he was there 'with his parents, FBI and lawyers.'
The person taking the lounge pictures said that they had asked if they could take a picture to which Bankman-Fried claimed to say 'maybe not today.'
The photos show Bankman-Fried sporting a casual dark grey shirt, suit pants and shoes that appear to not have laces, while working on a laptop computer.
Despite his casual look, the embattled financier, who claims to only have $100,000 enjoyed the luxury lounge which boasts a local chef, specialty cocktail bar, shower suites, wine table and personalized service.
Photos from the AA business class seat show the 30-year-old, wearing a black beanie with a cup of what appears to be orange juice by his side.
The FTX founder, who is known for his casual wardrobe, was clearly ready to relax on his flight back to his parent's Palo Alto home as he removed his shoes while speaking to a person beside him.
Bankman-Fried was released on a $250million bond, according to a deal struck on Thursday in a New York City courtroom.
