He also paid to have someone assassinated*, who then just lied to him saying it was done
Page 19 under heading "2. Murders Commissioned by Dread Pirate Roberts"
*Allegedly. Not convicted, but also not exonerated.

Not convicted because it was a fed who convinced him the other guy was trying to kill him. There's entrapment along the lines of "haha let's kidnap the governor, as a prank" and then there's "he'll kill you if you don't pay me to kill him first" entrapment.
I'm personally more concerned with all the pedo shit and slavery he allowed on his platform by design.
Edit: first point probably isn't true, but it was thrown out with prejudice

I'm having trouble finding where that's explained. With all I've seen, I have not seen anything mention that.

Might have fallen for some misinfo myself because I can't find anything about the physical threats, just the extortion.
Regardless, the state apparently didn't even believe the logs themselves. Normally I'd call them too biased to link but since even the state agrees:

There's a lot of money and powerful people involved so it's pretty hard to say what really happened, but what definitely did happen is questionable evidence that never should have been allowed in his trial was introduced.
He belongs to be in jail for deliberately aiding in human trafficking and CSA (and so you can see why Trump would pardon him). What isn't clear, and was specifically thrown out with prejudice, is the supposed assassination plots.

Hmm. I don't see where the state did not think the logs were real. AFAIK they were pulled from the website's database. The BTC transactions match up, too.
I think I've seen people conflate "there is no evidence that anyone was killed" and them not believing the whole thing, but attempting to hire and the falsified "success" of the supposed murders can be both true.
Honestly, the only places I've seen anything that tries to dismiss or question the accusations are right-leaning libertarian biased sites. Reason.com is often cited and say ""they cite their sources"" but their citations are nearly all just links to blog posts and opinion articles on the same site. I have no reason to believe or trust what they say about it, and I've already done more than I care to check the validity of their claims, which again are opinions.

Citation 7+8 note that the officers who were convicted of corruption had admin privileges, including the ability to change message content.
Of course, it's a PDF of a document that says it's an official court document but is hosted by the site and not a .gov link. I didn't track down any of the case file numbers to confirm it. If you want to, go nuts.

Right. That seems like more effort than it's worth in comparison to how much I care about the situation. As you say, the guy was already a piece of shit. That's why it's easy for me to believe, especially considering the evidence. Anything that may point out the evidence is invalid is pretty buried or seems to only be spread among areas that have an interest in that narrative.
Anyway, thanks for the info and discussion.
