Sam Bankman-Fried is no longer located at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn after an unsanctioned interview with Tucker Carlson.

Officials with the Federal Bureau of Prisons have moved former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried to a transit facility days after political commentator Tucker Carlson interviewed him.

As of March 27, the bureau’s website showed Bankman-Fried was being housed at the Federal Transfer Center (FTC) in Oklahoma City, suggesting he may be moved from the facility where he was incarcerated while awaiting trial and then moving forward with an appeal of his conviction.
