False. Amplified through inaccurate and sensationalized reporting, these allegations were used to deny Ross bail, smear him in the media, bias his jurors and justify the life sentence he ultimately received.
Some people overdosed from drugs bought on Silk Road and this was presented to Ross’s jury at trial”
False. This allegation was never charged at trial or presented to jurors. Ross was never prosecuted for causing harm or bodily injury and no victim was named at trial.
“The book ‘American Kingpin’ is well-researched, accurate and the real story”
False. It is not the real story by any means. This book is sensationalized and fictionalized and is a one-sided narrative. It was written to be a page turner, so the author took liberties, with little regard for truth and accuracy.
“Ross is a drug kingpin”
False. Ross is a website creator, not a kingpin. He did not store, transport or have contact with any of the legal or illegal items sold on the website. He had no relationship with the sellers and no influence over prices.
“Silk Road allowed the sale of child porn, human organs, hitmen and other violent services”
False. Even the government never alleged this. Silk Road was a free market based on the libertarian non-aggression principle.
“Ross was offered a 10-year plea deal and rejected it”
False. First, prosecutors made no written offer. Second, the verbal offer prosecutors extended to Ross was that, if he pled guilty to the conspiracy charges he was arrested for, he would face 10 years to life imprisonment. However, they made it clear they would argue for a life sentence with his sentencing judge.
“Ross was the only one running Silk Road”
False. The prosecution claimed that Ross controlled Silk Road from start to finish and was the only person behind the accounts of the top administrator, “Dread Pirate Roberts” (DPR, a character from The Princess Bride, who passed his name and identity on to his successors).
“Ross got a fair trial.”
False. Many organizations and individuals have voiced concerns over Ross’s trial. It was full of due process violations,
“Silk Road was created to sell illegal drugs”
False. Silk Road was created as a libertarian free market, not as a drug market.
Ross created Silk Road for financial gain.”
False. Ross was a young libertarian who wanted to provide the experience of a truly free market.
