A video of the arrest of Zach Witkoff, co-founder of World Liberty Financial, a company linked to Donald Trump, recently surfaced online. The 2022 video shows police officers discovering a bag of cocaine on him.
The body camera footage of the police officer who arrested him was published by The Newsground, “an independent publication launched in March 2026” by Scott Stedman.
During his arrest, Whitkoff repeatedly insisted that he was friends with E11even club owner Mark Roberts, where he was picked up, leading the officer to demand that Whitkoff “stop dropping names.”
Zach is the son of Steve Witkoff, Trump’s special envoy to the Middle East and co-founder of World Liberty Financial. He was not brought to justice after this arrest.
Zach is co-founder World Liberty Financial intends to lead the World Liberty Trust Company, a trust company specializing in stablecoins that has applied for a national license.
The video’s release adds further urgency to the months-long dispute between World Liberty Financial and crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun, which stems from World Liberty blacklisting most of Sun’s WLFI tokens.
Once again expressing his full support for US President Donald Trump, Sun sued against World Liberty for “illegally freezing all of his tokens, denying him voting rights on governance proposals, and threatening to permanently destroy his tokens by burning them.”
Witkoff писал on social media that the lawsuit is a “desperate attempt to distract attention from the wrongdoing of Sun himself,” who “committed wrongful acts that forced World Liberty to take action to protect itself and its users.”
In response, the founder of blockchain Tron threatened to file another libel suit.
