It was an injustice. He deserved time in prison for hiring fake hitmen in an attempt to get back at people, but he sure as hell didn’t deserve life in prison for it. And nobody should be in jail for selling drugs.
Ross is an idiot, but his punishment was the government making an example of him, and was way out of proportion to his crimes. The definition of injustice.
I think the pot sales were probably not a huge deal, and some of the other recreational drugs too (I don’t think anyone should do those drugs, but I’m not going to restrict everyone else).
The hitman services listed and other illegal stuff was definitely an issue he deserved time for.
He was never criminally tried for those charges. That means just selling drugs have him two lifetimes in prison plus 40 years without possibility of parole
Dude was deep into Bitcoin back when it was less than a dollar. If he diversified and stashed just a fraction of his holdings, he might now be one of the richest people on the planet.
Why though?
I mean, who is looking at this and calling it an injustice?
Side note: does he get his bitcoin wallet back?

He got more time than actual gang bangers without committing any violent crime. His sentence was way longer than it should have been.

Interesting, I didn’t know that, though I didn’t follow the case too closely, but the arrest was big news
The US already auctioned off his coins. But its possible that maybe he had some more on a backup somewhere

Who says crime doesn’t pay? :/
