About this episode

Correspondent Scott Pelley sits down with U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland in Washington D.C. Pelley speaks with the head of the Justice Department about the indictments of former President Donald Trump, the Hunter Biden probe, and the January 6th indictments. Days before FTX cryptocurrency exchange founder Sam Bankman-Fried is set to go to trial, 60 MINUTES conducts the exclusive first interview with author and financial journalist Michael Lewis who had a front row seat to Bankman-Fried's rise and fall. Correspondent Jon Wertheim speaks with Lewis, ahead of his GOING INFINITE book release, about Bankman-Fried at the height of his empire, the collapse of crypto, and whether the FTX wunderkind believes he's innocent.
