Hey guys, this isn't entirely relevant here but I thought you guys would be interested. Yesterday I attended the Virginia Regional Students for Liberty conference at UVA, and the keynote speaker was Kim Reisinger, Ross Ulbricht's aunt. We were originally going to hear from Ross's mother, but she recently had a heart attack and could not attend (apparently she is doing well, just not well enough to give a talk). I got to hear all about the trial from her perspective, detailing the ridiculous miscarriage of justice to Ross. I can go into more detail about the talk if anybody is interested.
I also just wanted to remind everybody interested that Ross's fight is not over. He is planning on formally appealing his case (getting paperwork in by early-mid december, hearing back some time in March) and is actively working with lawyers still. All of you guys should check out Free Ross. They have t-shirts for sale, and information to send a letter to Ross in prison. I guess he really appreciates letters, and makes sure to read them all.
EDIT: Forgot to mention that donations are also accepted on the site! The Defense Fund is currently at over $415k, with a goal of $650k, but any little bit helps! They do accept BTC
