Ο ιδρυτής της online ναρκοαγοράς Silk Road, Ross Ulbricht, καταδικάστηκε από το ομοσπονδιακό δικαστήριο των ΗΠΑ σε δις ισόβια χωρίς right appeal.
Ulbricht also heard several other convictions.
One of them said she is losing 184 of the $187 million she earned from the siteσελίδα of two years ago.
Ulbricht was convicted of: drug trafficking in the internetwork, conspiracy for drug trafficking, hacking, money laundering, and running a criminal enterprise that netted him $1.200 billion in Bitcoins.
This sentence exceeds the mandatory minimum of 20 years for the above crimes, despite the defendant's apology and appeal for leniency.
Let's recall that with the pseudonym of Dread Pirate Roberts, Ulbright was the manager of Silk Road from 2011 to 2013. Silk Road was an online drug market hosted on DarkNet.
Ulbricht's lawyer said he would appeal.
