Looks like you're right, thanks. Gonna be a long time before he goes to jail then. Maybe Bahamas will charge him first to get him in jail and then US would be able to extradite as I doubt Bahaman charges would count toward US speed trial.

Edit: SBF has been arrested by Bahaman authorities.

That's correct, double-jeopardy applies at the jurisdictional level (meaning, double-jeopardy from a state court trial wouldn't prevent a trial at the federal level, or vice versa), so charges in the Bahamas would not trigger double-jeopardy protection against charges filed in the U.S. at the state or federal levels.
