The clock stops the minute that you step overseas, so as long as he's in the Bahamas there is no statute of limitations.

This is not true, see my other response.

Also, isn't FTX a Bahamian company? Why wouldn't he be there?

And what US crime did he commit, as all the accounting stuff didn't happen in the US, but the Bahamas?

> Also, isn't FTX a Bahamian company?

The FTX network of companies (see the consolidated bankruptcy filings) includes more than 100 companies, some of which are American, all of which were ultimately controlled by SBF, most of which had what records they had commingled, and most of which seem to have been tools in the same set of international frauds.

100 companies, heh. Well no wonder investigating takes time.

Just tracking down them all, the board of directors, etc...

Such as fleeing prosecution?

Yes: https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/question-tolling-sta...

He is only fleeing prosecution, if he is unavailable.

For example, he can easily be contacted for interviews, with an email or phone call, or even by visiting te Bahamas. Thus he is not fleeing, or hiding from contact, and I even presume he has a lawyer, whom the police can contact.

So nothing is suspended here.
