> Ok, he wasn't sentenced for murder but it was "factored in" in another sentence
Its not "murder", its "soliciting murder in the furtherance of a conspiracy". Which is not a separate crime, but manner in which the crime of conspiracy is achieved.
(Soliciting murder itself can be charged as a crime, and Ulbricht is charged with that, too, though those charges were not tried with these charges.)
Ok, so he wasn't sentenced to murder, thanks. Neither to "solicinting murder in the furtherance of conspirancy either" actually. Or, which charge was it exactly if you look here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9627263 ... Seems as if there was no such charge.
