The federal criminal case against the Southern Poverty Law Center, indicted in April 2026 on 11 counts of wire fraud, false statements to a bank, and conspiracy to commit money laundering tied to its informant program, remains in pretrial stages. The organization entered a not guilty plea in May, its motion to dismiss on vindictive prosecution grounds was denied in August, and trial is scheduled to begin in October. With proceedings at an early phase and no verdict reached, traders assign an 88.5% implied probability to “No,” reflecting the limited window for resolution or conviction by year-end amid ongoing litigation and standard procedural timelines.
