Re: Take a good look
Or perhaps Mr. Ulbricht was just a very bad man... If the charges are true and a jury says they are... then keeping him locked up is probably a very good idea. He didn't just engage in criminal activity, he was also the brains behind it. If he hadn't gotten life in this trial, it's possible the next one (for the charges about paying to have 6 people murdered.
Yeah, I know there's a question of his legal defense with some of the stunts they tried to pull.... and I'm sure that there will be a change in legal counsel for the appeal with his defense team's screw-ups being used as mitigating factors.
I'm also a hardass.... deal in street drugs should merit more than slap on the wrist. For an idea of where drug dealing can lead in society, have a look at the Mexican drug cartels.
And I'm also expecting downvotes from all those who think he should have just received a slap on the wrist and severe talking to along with a note to his mom about his bad behavior also.
