Frankly I was expecting a harsh sentence.
Yeah.. sure.. he should have been burnt at stake.
Do you, and the other pro-FBI types in this forum realize that the sentence handed out to him was much more severe, when compared to those given to hardcore drug lords who have been dealing with drugs for many decades?
Uh ... his sentence was pretty in line with other "hardcore drug lords" get. Life.
Yeah, it's kinda strange that he didn't escape the US while had the chance. America has some of the toughest prison sentences in the world.
Did he really think his security was so good it was impossible for him to go down?
I doubt all the other dark market king pins are located in the US, although they might have better OP SEC.
For those asking the judge gave a non-binding recommendation that he go to FCI Petersburg I in Virginia. If the public safety factor is not waived, the judge recommended he go to USP Tuscon in Arizona or USP Colemale II in Florida.
None of these are supermax?
Wikipedia says they are "High Security"
There's is only one so-called supermax facility, which is ADX Florence.
Ok, so why is everyone talking about him go to a supermax prison. What are the chances of him going there?
