Re: Silk Road Founder Ross Ulbricht Sentenced to Life in Prison
However, nobody was hurt by Ross and his DPR activities. At least they haven't come forward to suggest they were hurt. Actually, it is the other way around. A bunch of government people hurt Ross by stealing his property, and by blaming him for hurting people who never came forward with even a scratch (hearsay). They, the government people, should be sued to the max for hurting Ross and stealing his property.
It's arguable that people weren't hurt and the US gov will certainly be of the opinion that he hurt those who he supplied drugs to, but there's also the murder for hires that if were true would have ended up with someone potentially being killed and if Ross had the capacity to order hits would makes him a bad person in my view.
On a related note what has happened with Blake Benthall? Haven't heard anything about his trail for ages.
