    I remember it all quite well. The reason he wasn’t charged is because the “hitman” was a fed and stole a bunch of BTC during the investigation. Agent Force could’ve easily fabricated evidence and planted it.

    Maybe if the federal government could actually find someone committing a crime they could charge them and convict them but until they they can fuck right off and go make an example of someone that deserves it, like their shitty agent.

      Tbf (and balanced), he was indeed charged, but in Maryland. The prosecutors in the NY case were just smarter and knew it wouldn’t hold up. I agree it reeks of entrapment, but Ross did still go along with it like the dangerous idiot he is.
