Sujet: Re: [unSYSTEM] Ross Ulbricht’s parents say zero chance of murder-for-hire
Without being released on bail, he'll have no way of accessing those
funds. All comms monitored. And in the unlikely event he were released
on bail, it would be with an ankle bracelet, constant surveillance and a
"no electronic communications" order. You can imagine how likely a judge
facing this would be to grant bail so that he could access any kind of
funds. Lawyers won't touch it either.
