According to a statement released by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Central District of California on March 17, former Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department Deputy Sheriff Michael David Coberg has been sentenced to 63 months in federal prison and ordered to pay $127,000 in restitution for assisting cryptocurrency scammer Adam Iza in extortion and false arrests. Coberg, as Iza's business partner and consultant, earned at least $20,000 per month. In October 2021, Coberg participated in bringing a victim to Iza's residence, where Iza threatened him with a gun. Coberg, acting as an on-duty law enforcement officer, interrogated the victim, forcing him to transfer $127,000 to Iza's account. In September 2021, Coberg conspired with Iza and others to lure another victim from Miami to Los Angeles, where they arrested him using fabricated traffic stops and charges of illegal drug possession. Coberg pleaded guilty in September 2025 to two counts of conspiracy to commit extortion and conspiracy to violate civil rights. Iza, who has been in federal custody since September 2024, has pleaded guilty to federal charges and is awaiting sentencing.

Huoxun Finance News, March 17th - According to Bloomberg, U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan has stated that he will not consider any letters or phone messages submitted on behalf of FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), specifically by his mother, Barbara Fried. SBF's mother, Barbara Fried, had contacted the court requesting an extension to submit documents, citing her son's inability to use word processing and access files while incarcerated. Judge Kaplan noted that while he understands Barbara Fried is the defendant's mother and a former Stanford Law School professor, she has no right to submit documents or seek relief in this case. The judge has voluntarily extended the deadline for SBF or his lawyers to request an extension to March 23rd, but explicitly stated that he will not accept any letters or phone messages from Barbara Fried. Bankman-Fried was sentenced to 25 years in prison in 2023 for the collapse of FTX and is currently serving his sentence. Last month, he filed a motion claiming new evidence and requesting a retrial.

According to a report by Decrypt on March 17th, documents from the UK High Court show that a man accused his estranged wife of stealing 2,323 bitcoins (approximately $172 million) by secretly recording his Trezor hardware wallet's mnemonic phrase. The man installed recording devices in his home after his daughter warned his wife about the attempted theft. The recordings included phrases such as "Bitcoins have been transferred to me" and "Take it all." On August 2, 2023, his bitcoins were transferred and distributed to 71 different addresses, with no further transactions occurring afterward. His wife was arrested in 2023 after the man reported the theft to the police, who seized 10 cryptocurrency cold wallets. However, she was released after a no-comment hearing and on bail, with police stating they would not take further action until new evidence emerged. In November 2025, the man applied for an asset preservation injunction, seeking to declare ownership of the bitcoins and recover the assets. The judge considered his chances of success "very high," noting that his wife had an opportunity but failed to provide a statement of events. Given the volatility of Bitcoin, the judge stated that a trial should be held as soon as possible.
