The author literally gloats that Ulbricht will never live outside a concrete box, as due punishment ("he had been held accountable") for the sole "sin" (his word, not mine) of creating a drug marketplace.
There is no mention that the internet hitmen saga is a predictable and avoidable negative effect of prohibition (having to resolve disputes by extrajudicial violence instead of having access to lawyers/courts/arbitration), there's no mention that none of the murders-for-hire had actually been done (every internet hitman is a fed and/or scammer) and he, AFAICT, hasn't even been convicted of the procuring murder charges.
- tptacek 10y agoThe article makes fun of the fact that the murders didn't take place, and were instead faked using canned food. I think you're reading into this a bit. (As I said upthread: you're incorrect about him never being confronted with the murder allegation in court).
