Title: [2017-04-05] Darknet Market Operators Who Stole 40 Thousand BTC Face Prison Time
Post by: TwoTimes on April 05, 2017, 07:07:56 PM
This week the accused thieves from the infamous Sheep Marketplace have been indicted by prosecutors from the Czech Republic. The charged suspect Thomas Jiřikovský may face up to 18 years for firearms charges, theft, and drug trafficking. The Sheep Marketplace was a popular darknet market much like the Silk Road but only lasted a few months due to the operators ceasing operations in an alleged exit scam.

In March of 2015, Thomas Jiřikovský was arrested in the Czech Republic for allegedly stealing millions of dollars in bitcoin from the darknet market, Sheep Marketplace, which was located on the deep web in 2013.
