Pretty much what the title says. I know he’s a former president and has all of his supporters, but what’s the official reason? Thanks.

A bunch of text, all of it unrelated to the question.
Trump lost a civil trial, SBF lost a criminal trial.
You can’t be sent to jail for breaking civil laws.
So do you think Trump broke no laws doing that stuff?
Because he did.
If you want the explanation on why he had a civil and not a criminal trial, refer to that “bunch of text unrelated to the question”.
Sometimes I forget different people need different amounts spelled out for them. I’m sorry I skipped a step and that caused you to become confused.
Your comment proves you don’t understand what’s happening. At all.
Trump defamed someone. That’s a civil issue. He was put on trial. On a civil trial. Because it’s a civil issue. He lost. He got fined. Not sent to jail. Because it’s a civil trial.
This isn’t about the trial he lost from raping Jean Carroll. This is about Trump lost a trial about defrauding banks and insurance companies.
Bankman Fried defrauded banks, was put on criminal trial and was sent to jail Trump defrauded banks but was only put on civil trial resulting in a fine.
My bad, of course, not sure why the defamation trial was still in my head.
SBF engaged in things like securities fraud as well, which is harder to spin into a civil thing I guess.
My bet on why they decided to go the civil route is that Trump has the money to make things right (if he will that’s another thing), and SBF has nothing.
So they’ve just decided to go the “better for everybody” route, since, well, it’s better for everybody.

Crazy someone hasn’t heard of that, or did you forget?
You literally don’t know what’s happening bro
Oh yeah, we’re talking about the New York Trump corp trial :)
In that case, here’s a nice explanation why a criminal trial wouldn’t make sense and why a civil one is much better for everyone
