There Might Still Be Crooked Cops from the Silk Road Investigation

In the last month, two crooked federal agents embedded inside the Silk Road investigation were sentenced to prison, but they may not have been alone.

Former DEA agent Carl Mark Force was sentenced to six and a half years, and former Secret Service agent Shaun Bridges was sentenced to five years and eleven months. Their crimes were numerous: they stole bitcoin, compromised investigations, and Bridges even set up a cooperating witness for a theft that the agent himself committed, leading to Silk Road creator the Dread Pirate Roberts issuing a hit on the witness. But Force and Bridges probably weren’t the only corrupt cops inside the Silk Road Task Force.

If it comes up to big money. I think most people will try to manipulate things when they have the power to do.

The funny part. The former DEA agent and Secret Service agent will now get raped and maybe killed in prison.
