All he did was give the people what they wanted.
He had 6 people killed or so he thought. The point is that he is not any different than any other cartel, mafia, or gang member.

This may be a stupid question but how exactly do these deep web marketplaces actually operate? How are they accessed etc?

First post for me- I have been following this entire story since I read a article on "wired" by Josh Bearman that details the entire saga from start to finish. Good read and a book is coming out about it in 2016. To the Silk road owner it was a libertarian political movement in addition to selling drugs. Also, one of the law enforcement officials (DEA I think) set up a sting and during the entire operation actually turned criminal- stealing bitcoins from a fake murder.
For some reason, I can't post the link to the article- so maybe someone else would be kind enough to get the article up: "The Rise and Fall of Silk Road" is the title. Also, it sort of is a primer about the 'dark internet' and actually shows how to set up on it for criminality using TOR.

If he's convicted of murder then a life sentence is expected. But this is ridiculous and that judge is a horrible bitch. This country is addicted to prison. Nothing at all gained by keeping him locked up when he's in old age. 20 years would've been fine. 30 years even. HIs life would've been ruined. But now our genius government will house him maybe the next 40 or 50 years and will pay for all his ailments as he ages. He'll be 80yrs old and still in prison for setting up a website.
I fricking hate the government.
