Title: Re: Silk Road 2.0 Found Blake Benthall Released from Prison Post by: unamis76 on July 27, 2015, 06:15:16 PM Pretty curious information... Being on witness program might be true, but I don't know how much info he has to testify against Silk Road 1 or even if he has any info at all about that.
I find it odd if he was simply released. Although it wouldn't surprise me if that was true. After all, they've arrested BurtW, amongst other stuff, so... It wouldn't be the first wierd thing they did.

Quote Update: According to the documents on Pacer his status is ““Detention on consent without prejudice.” (agrees to stay in jail) & According to Vinelink, he was transferred to an “Unknown location”, which explains the “released” part fom the BOP site: Yep, released from one cell to be placed in another.

There are proably a lot of people he could roll on besides Silk road 1. I am sure cops would be interested in many of his business contacts.
