Criminal Charges: Convicted in 2015 for conspiracy to commit drug trafficking, money laundering, and computer hacking
(didn't see any charges for guns and child porn)
Sentence: Life imprisonment without the possibility of parole
Sentencing Disparities: Critics of the sentence pointed to cases involving violent offenses that received equal or lesser punishments. In Ulbricht’s case, the argument for leniency revolved around whether sentencing policies adequately distinguish between violent and non-violent conduct, especially when emerging technologies are involved.
Btw... Ulbricht is also a libertarian.
