He should have moved to Antigua. They would probably not extradite him back to the U.S. They have a beef with our government as it is. This country can be harsh in sentences when it comes to drugs. Even if you are the middle man. It could be worst because in some countries they would have given him the death penalty.

How is death penalty worse than life in prison?

You need to take into consideration what was being sold in the silk markets, and all other markets. You could buy people in there...

If you go to trial in the US federal court system, you get the max sentence if you lose; it's the unwrittin law in the back of the federal sentencing guildlines.
They do this to encourage people not use their rights and just accept a plea deal.
Doesnt matter anyway, this case will be overturned due to LE's fuckup and there will be a re-trial at which point they will offer him a deal of 25 years or so and he will accept it.

How is death penalty worse than life in prison? I can't say 100% that it is worst. I think that is up to the individual. However quite a few people on death row would rather have life. I remember one of the guys executed in the Bali nine was asked what kind of life would he have in prison. He responded that it was a life. I would probably not want to sit in a cage for life but my decision may change if faced with death.

Wow that's really harsh. I really hate drugs and the harm they do. But putting this guy in prison for the rest of his life won't end drug abuse.
I think the murder for hires were a bigger wrong committed. He defiantly deserves prison but I would let him out in his mid 60s. Earlier if he convinced all the staff he wanted to go back out into the world and just be with his family and live a normal life.

Damn. Sucks to be him. Lived 2 years as a king and will now pay for it with the rest of his life. My question is, why was he still running his operation from the US? With all that money, he could have been operating in a 3rd world country and probably would've never been caught. Even if he did, he'd be able to buy his way out of it.

No, fuck YOU. You get shitty, dangerous and underdosed products because the state keeps on locking everyone who attempts to sell them, thus creating an illegal and low quality black market. It could be worst because in some countries they would have given him the death penalty.
How is death penalty worse than life in prison? Well, both really suck but at least with life in prison he can CHOOSE if he wants to die - by killing. Doesn't work the other way around. Hes sorta young so perhaps the world may change and free him one day, even if it takes 40 years. Wow that's really harsh. I really hate drugs and the harm they do. But putting this guy in prison for the rest of his life won't end drug abuse.

Earlier if he convinced all the staff he wanted to go back out into the world and just be with his family and live a normal life. True, I agree with the murder for hire. However, nobody was killed, although he did try to do that. That is something I agree he should go to jail for, if somebody was killed.

So if I tried to murder your entire family and failed, then it's all good, since I didn't succeed? You'll invite me to your next BBQ party?
Just because nothing potentially happened (is that even confirmed?) doesn't mean there was no crime.

Because he was dumb? Can't think of any other reason. There is a long, long history of law enforcement infiltrating illicit forums (carders etc) way before he came along. He should've been fully aware of that and taken the necessary measures. It really doesn't sound like he lived as much of a king either. Renting house shares and sitting in coffee shops on your laptop all day doesn't strike me as living the dream.

There are tons of deaths from prescription drugs. Quite honestly people who do drugs are going to do drugs. You can argue he caused the damage but the people are going to get drugs. The amount of people who do drugs is numerous. Unless the government regulates it, there will be many more silk roads.

What's just as tragic is that we all have to obey laws that go against very basic human and constitutional rights as free men and women. There are already people in US federal prisons "for life" for marijuana possession which is legal in several states now. And to the argument, "oh but these were people who possessed with the intent to distribute..." So what? Freedom is Freedom until we submit to having none which is pretty much what has happened in the US in the past recent decades. "The war on drugs..." what a terrible and hypocritical thing to war against. Who gets to decide what I or anyone else puts in their body? I thought that was my freedom... my liberty.
Inhibiting liberties is the simplest form of oppression and is ultimately a nation killer.
Write your congressional representative if you agree.

I have a thread about the African American Mormon named Curtis Clark Green who had his death faked by two rogue FBI agents at Ross' request if that counts: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1045937.0. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=62129Name: bigasic Posts: 1176 Activity: 714 Position: Hero Member Date Registered: July 14, 2012, 08:11:07 PM Last Active: May 25, 2015, 11:07:18 PM
I'm taken aback that Curtis isn't here to speak against his former employer.

why marijuana?
why not alcohol? something to calm u for just a little while. if it was legal you'd probably want to kill yourself by the end of the day.
look at Colorado for God's sake. people are dying. like in schools and shit.
