Howard A. Fischer was quoted in a December 13, 2022 article discussing what is next for Sam Bankman-Fried and those close to him.

"The speed of the arrest — as well as the filing of the SEC Complaint — suggests two things. First, that current management is collaborating closely with the authorities and giving them access to FTX’s books and records. Second, that some employees (and likely high-level ones) are cooperating with the authorities, perhaps in exchange for leniency themselves."
