Ryan Salame, a former executive at FTX, is attempting to overturn his guilty plea, alleging that federal authorities breached an agreement to end their investigation into his partner.

• Ryan Salame, a former high-ranking officer at FTX under founder Sam Bankman-Fried, requested a judge to annul his plea bargain with the government.
• On Wednesday, lawyers for Salame filed a motion to vacate his conviction, claiming that the government breached its promise not to investigate his partner, Michelle Bond.

Ryan Salame, a former high-ranking officer at FTX under founder Sam Bankman-Fried, requested a judge to annul the agreement he struck with the government and his plea of guilt.

On Wednesday, lawyers for Salame filed a motion to vacate his conviction, claiming that the government violated a crucial aspect of the agreement, which was not to investigate Michelle Bond.

The motion states that the Government utilized plea negotiations to intimidate Salame's domestic partner, who is also the mother of his child.

Government lawyers informed Salame that they would cease investigating Bond if he pleaded guilty. Given Salame's strong desire to safeguard Bond, he agreed to enter into a plea agreement.

According to the filing, the government has re-opened its probe into Bond.

Salame writes in a post on X that while the information they shared is accurate, they are nervous about a court filing they recently made because they know it could lead to the most powerful body in the world targeting them and their loved ones again. However, they hope that their actions will inspire others to be truthful and expose un-American practices.

In May, the ex-FTX exec was given a sentence of 90 months, or seven and a half years, in prison, along with three years of supervised release. Additionally, Salame has been ordered to pay more than $6 million in forfeiture and more than $5 million in restitution.

Salame pleaded guilty to charges, but he was not a cooperating witness for the government. However, he testified in the criminal trial of his former boss, Sam Bankman-Fried.

Salame is due to surrender in October.
