Media reports earlier in the day claimed that SBF was expected to be extradited back to the U.S. on Dec. 19. However, the hearing seems to have taken a different turn due to a “mysterious event” that occurred over the weekend of Dec. 16, according to Armstrong.

I cannot express how crazy the court hearing was this morning. @SBF_FTX was shaking and begging his lawyer to get him extradited.

But there was a mysterious event that happened over the weekend that prevented the extradition. Hmmm…. wonder what that was?
