> They handed Elison a plea deal waving all charges except criminal tax violations, which she's unlikely to be found guilty of.

As someone else said, this is factually false on the charges she pled to.

Mainly, though, I don’t know what you mean by “which she’s unlikely to be found guilty of”. When someone pleads guilty, if the judge accepts the plea, there is no other finding of fact. She already is guilty. That’s what pleading is.

She’s already been found guilty (by virtue of her plea). What hasn’t happened is her sentencing.

They seem to be confusing an agreement not to seek further FTX-related charges except potential tax fraud charges with waiving the existing charges which she instead actually pled guilty to.
