Officials with the Federal Bureau of Prisons have moved former FTX CEO Sam “SBF” Bankman-Fried to a transit facility days after right-wing political commentator Tucker Carlson interviewed him.
As of March 27, the Federal Bureau of Prisons website showed Bankman-Fried was being housed at the Federal Transfer Center (FTC) in Oklahoma City, suggesting that he may be moved from the facility where he largely spent the majority of his time awaiting trial and moving forward with an appeal of his conviction.
Carlson remotely interviewed SBF from the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn on March 5 — a reportedly unsanctioned event that resulted in the former FTX CEO being sent to solitary confinement.

The reason for the move to the Oklahoma transit facility was unclear. After Bankman-Fried’s 2023 conviction on seven felony charges and 2024 sentencing to 25 years in prison, a federal judge recommended that the former CEO remain in the New York area to assist during his appeals process. He was briefly transferred to FTC Oklahoma City in May 2024 before being returned to MDC Brooklyn.
Bankman-Fried has been housed in various facilities since a judge revoked his bail in August 2023 following allegations the former CEO attempted to intimidate witnesses before his criminal trial. According to the Federal Bureau of Prisons, he was set to be released in November 2044 but could serve less time based on his behavior in prison.
This is a developing story, and further information will be added as it becomes available.
