The FBI has released details from a digital diary belonging to Ross Ulbricht – the man accused of running Silk Road.
The diary contains quite incriminating evidence since Ulbricht used to write almost everything.
Evidence discovered in the diary proves that Ulbricht had ordered at least one murder and ordered a hit on four men who had cheated him. The diary was found on his computer and, ironically, it also contains an escape plan in case the authorities had their eye on Silk Road.
See excerpts from the diary as presented by TNW:
28/03/2013 they are blackmailing me with leaking user information. i spoke to a big distributor (hells angels) .
03/29/2013 I entrusted the blackmailer's beating to the angels
01/04/2013 I learned that the blackmailer was executed
04/04/2013 I fixed the problem with transactions. I fixed the error in determining the refund amount because several suppliers had negative accounts. Direct connection for Bitcoin instead of using ssh PortForward. I got visual confirmation of the execution of the extortionists
06/04/2013 I tasked the angels to find tony76, I cleaned up the unused libraries on the server
04/08/2013 I sent the payment to the angels for hitting tony76 and his 3 associates with a very high load (300 /16), took the site offline, I refreshed the main category and pages to be more efficient.
Authorities say that although Ulbricht believes the murders took place, there is no proof that they actually took place, and that he was probably tricked into taking the money.
