Admittedly, this is the part I struggle with. Regardless of whether it should've been used in court and the fact that no harm was caused, didn't Ulbricht actually believe that he had ordered those hits and that they were successful?
Charged or not, that tells me that Ulbricht was a guy who was more than capable of going above and beyond the kingpin role. So that's when I find it difficult to be sympathetic in regards to the excessive sentencing.
