None | Trump Considers Clemency for Ross Ulbricht, Silk Road Founder Convicted of Drug and Money Laundering Charges

'Those supporters have pointed to the disparity in sentencing among Silk Road vendors and participants. '

'Ulbricht was the founder and administrator of the Silk Road darknet drug market, which used the Tor anonymity network to hide the location of servers and cryptocurrencies like bitcoin to allow users to purchase drugs anonymously. '

'In his final weeks in office before Joe Biden’s inauguration, President Donald Trump is weighing granting clemency to Ross Ulbricht, the founder and former administrator of the world’s most famous darknet drug market, Silk Road, The Daily Beast has learned. '

'Ulbricht founded Silk Road after graduating with a master’s degree in materials science from Penn State and continued to administer the site from his home in San Francisco. '

'Silk Road’s largest drug seller, Jan Slomp, received the second stiffest punishment after Ulbricht with a sentence of 10 years in prison. '
