Original Note:
This post drastically misrepresents the background for Ross Ulbricht's life sentencing. To support Ulbricht's life sentencing, the court found it proven that Ulbricht had attempted to solicit multiple murders-for-hire, believing the murders to have been carried out. https://www.wired.com/2017/05/silk-road-creator-ross-ulbricht-loses-life-sentence-appeal/ https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdny/pr/ross-ulbricht-aka-dread-pirate-roberts-sentenced-manhattan-federal-court-life-prison https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ross_Ulbricht#Murder-for-hire_allegations
