It is enough this that him be punished with lifetime in prison or not?
It would be if he'd actually been tried for it and it had been proven. It didn't come up in the case at all. I've no idea what the truth is regarding that area but it seems a little strange that they didn't pursue it. Perhaps they felt they already had enough.
They didn't pursed it because they knew that they will fail in it, as the charges and the evidence were all cooked up. It is not very difficult for the FBI to frame false evidence. They can just hack in to DPR's email account or chat account, and add whatever in the conversation history they want to add. This has happened in the past, and it will happen in the future as well.
Bryant, I don't want to be polemic with you. This post is only to satisfy one my simple curiosity. And maybe to understand more. Maybe all you write is correct. I cannot know the right about this question. The only thing that is sure in this story (and no one from both us can deny) is that Ross Ulbricht is a person who had created and owned the most profitable platform to hold the most enormous market of illegal things (dangerous things for the people) in the USA in which were moved millions of us dollars. Him's activity helped essentially (in the meaning that without it everything was impossible to exist) this market which create disease and distress in thousand and thousand (maybe more) people. I have only a question: Why FBI can make such thing mentioned by you in your post if only the above things mentioned by me in this post are enough to condemn Ross Ulbricht lifetime in prison? Why needed such invention, such action from FBI?
