In a major turn of events, the sentencing hearing for Binance’s former CEO Changpeng ‘CZ’ Zhao took a surprising twist.

Judge Richard Jones signaled a move away from the harsh sentences proposed by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) in favor of a more lenient approach.

Judge Jones Aims for Lenience

In an ongoing court hearing, Judge Jones expressed skepticism about the Justice Department’s push for a longer prison sentence, deciding instead to follow recommendations made by the Probation Office.

The recommendation suggests a prison sentence of 10 to 16 months for Zhao, a stark contrast to the 36 months requested by the Justice Department.

Zhao’s guilty plea and community support

After Changpeng ‘CZ’ Zhao pleaded guilty, he received widespread support from the cryptocurrency community, with family and friends supporting him and sending him letters of support.

How Zhao’s Sentencing Affects Binance
