well, apparently running an illegal drug distribution operation online is a big deal crime like rape.

A cruel end to an otherwise inspiring story of a young man with a dream.

He probably did, but he wasn't convicted. But now the next darknet market operator knows the stakes and will likely kill a lot of people to avoid being caught.

Exactly. Now that it's been established that the penalty for drug dealing is no worse than it is for murder, there's no reason for dealers not to murder everyone who can implicate them.

No he didn't. That was all completely fabricated by the feds that stole all of the bitcoins that also got busted. The people that were listed as targets didn't even exist.

I wanna say in the early days of SR he posted looking for help using a gmail account that was actually his name or something equally idiotic. Feds found the archive of whatever forum it was on.
