RE: An Open Letter Of Thanks To Ross Ulbricht

in #bitcoin7 years ago

I am deeply moved by Ross's plight, and urge President Trump, and others that agree, to commute his sentence.

The ruling in Ross's case is a travesty, not only because of the length of the sentence, but that the case was prosecuted at all, as the officials of the US agencies that provided the evidence against Ross were themselves convicted of stealing BTC during the conduct of their investigation.

Their evidence and testimony is tainted, suspect, and never should have been allowed, or should have been discarded, and Ross granted a new trial.

Unfortunately, Ross is not alone in being unlawfully victimized by a justice system that not only resembles Orwellian dystopia, but exemplifies it perfectly.

Thank you for reminding me of Ross and the sacrifice that has been imposed on him by tyrannical and barbaric overlords without justification contrary to every ideal and tenet upon which the American republic was founded.

Thanks for such a thoughtful comment, @valued-customer! Thanks, also, for resteeming and following. I'm grateful for your support, and resonant heart.

In many ways I have lived my life to maximize other valuable things than mammon. Time with my family, for example. It is what I am.

You're welcome. Thank you for your post!
