Why didn't SBF flee?

I was wondering why SBF seemingly behaved like an innocent man. Giving interviews, talking to podcasters, remaining at his residence.

Why didn't he make a run for it?

If he did take all those billions as was claimed, why didn't he move to a country that doesn't extradite or just move off the grid for a couple years?

Was he burnt out? complacent? drugs?

Or did he never have that money in the first place?

  • He did flee, albeit not to country that doesnt extradite to the US. He tried to hide in his techbro trooical get away in the Bahamas.

    • He didn't flee. That's where he was living. That's where the company was based.

      • I would argue he did flee as he /was/ in the US, if I am not mistaken, then a legal development happened and then he left.

        But eh, not a super big deal at this point, I am too hungry to go look up the exact chain of events.

        • No, the company was based out of the Bahamas. He'd been living in the Bahamas for years.
