During the cross-examination of Caroline Ellison, the lead attorney, Mark Cohen, failed to establish his expected point that Ellison may have been more responsible for the collapse of FTX than his client, Sam Bankman-Fried. Cohen’s questioning also did not significantly undermine Ellison’s credibility, and he missed opportunities to delve into certain aspects of the case, ultimately leaving the defense’s strategy unclear and raising questions about their ability to challenge the prosecution’s narrative of Bankman-Fried’s actions in taking funds from customers and investors.
