The Silk Road did not allow CP, guns, hits, etc. They had rules about not allowing these things and had a rule that you couldn’t sell anything that could be used to cause harm to others. You bring up CP and hit men a lot. And I think you’re mixing up Silk Road and Silk Road 2.0 and the other replicas to follow. Ross’s charges are based off non-violent convictions. He was never prosecuted for causing harm or bodily injury. No victim was named at the trial. And, actually, the “first victim” that’s death was set up by the govt… is actually a Free Ross supporter and has made a public statement about his support. Also, Variety Jones is Roger Thomas Clark. And Smedley is most likely Mike Wattier. Ross wasn’t in it for the money… he lived in an apartment with 3 roommates who chastised him constantly for being broke and not having a real career. They were all in school for professional careers, attorneys, etc. He didn’t flaunt his money. His room and apartment were bare and empty. He didn’t buy himself extravagant thing. He didn’t really buy himself anything at all. You make him sound like he was in it for money. That’s the last reason he was doing it.
