Jarett Dunn, the attacker of the Solana meme coin launcher Pump.fun, is seeking to withdraw his guilty plea just two months after admitting to fraud and transferring criminal property. Dunn drained approximately $2 million from Pump.fun in May, subsequently airdropping the stolen tokens to random wallets, which led to him being labeled as crypto's Robin Hood by some observers. After a last-minute change of heart during a scheduled sentencing hearing, Dunn expressed his desire to change his plea, which took the court by surprise. His previous legal team has stepped down, believing that attempting to withdraw the plea was not a sound strategy. Dunn now faces a two-week window to secure new legal representation. His request could lead to a trial in which multiple witnesses, potentially including the Pump.fun founders, will be called to testify. The judge raised concerns about the credibility of Dunn's request, especially since he has confessed multiple times to the crime, complicating his chances for a successful retraction of the guilty plea.
