In a court filing Tuesday night, attorneys said that, at most, Ellison should be sentenced to time served and supervised release.

U.S. prosecutors made a case for leniency for former FTX cryptocurrency executive Caroline Ellison when she is sentenced over her role in the exchange's collapse, citing her help in sending FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried to prison for 25 years.

Former Alameda Research CEO Caroline Ellison should be sentenced to time served and supervised release for her role in FTX's operation and subsequent collapse, her attorneys said in a filing late Tuesday night.

Fried’s former girlfriend and a top executive in his empire, is set to be sentenced on Sept. 24 for her role in the collapse of the crypto exchange.

Caroline Ellison was praised by prosecutors for her “exemplary” cooperation in the FTX fraud investigation, even though it made her the target of relentless harassment and public scrutiny.
