I am not finished reading this thread, but I already have one thing to say:
Everybody, who says he deserves it, because he attempted murder is a FUCKING IDIOT.
Attempted murder was not an accusation in this trial, it has no value whatsoever in this trial.

It might not have been relevant in this trial but it is relevant to his character, so they can think he deserved prison time based on that.

It was relevant in this trial. The "hits" were part of silk road business when he wasn't running the site according to him.

You booth are retards.
It is not part of his prison time, since there is another trial for that, which will add to his prison time.
It doesn't matter, if it was "part of the silk road business", because he isn't accused for "silk road business", he is accused for pretty specific cases(drug selling and money laundering)
His character doesn't matter for the question, if he is guilty. It could be taken in account for his prison time.
Seriously. We are talking here about pretty basic rule of law stuff.

When your entire defense is "i wasn't running silk road at that time" evidence on your computer of you running silk road at that time is pretty relevant. The journals talked about all the other stuff that he did on silk road at that time, and that was read into evidence, but people in the media and observers ran with the murder stuff because it's more interesting than all the other nonsense that goes into silk road.
