Ross Ulbricht has been pardoned today, after about 10 years.

I know Ross wasn't exactly a saint, but this honestly put a smile to my face. That man, for all he did, did not deserve an entire life sentence. They really tried making an example out of him. I believe one of the moderators of SR was a CP distributor yet managed to get less of a sentence than Ross.

Happy he's free, however i genuinely wonder what Trump gained from freeing Ross Ulbricht.
I don't see any big population group wanting him freed as far as i know, mostly computer autists. Does anyone have a clue?

I thought the day would never come, it will be great to see him free.

Freeing Ross Ulbricht fulfilled a campaign promise to Libertarian supporters. Also, Trump believes that the people who gave Ross the unreasonable sentence are the same people who targeted him after he lost the 2020 election.

He wasn't really a devil, but still should have served a bit more, in my opinion.

I think this is good news. I read his story, he has been in prison for many years. I think now it's time to be free again.

The guy's a legend. Set him free and let the competition begin again!

I wasnt sure Trump would keep this promise but I am glad he did. Ross's mom worked so hard for this
