What do you mean? Trump just pardoned or commuted pretty much all of the J6 crowd. One guy convicted of crimes that don't require proving violence beyond a reasonable doubt is pretty tame in comparison. He is one of thousands.

What? All crimes were proved beyond a reasonable doubt according to a jury of our peers. (Or they plead guilty).

The violent element was not proven for Ross. The judge decided on preponderance of evidence he hired the hit man, and sentenced him as if he did.

Trump know the Jan 6 rioters and supported them. Pardoning is important to justify his claim that nobody did anything wrong as that the election was "stolen by the Dems".

I can't imagine he would have known Ross Ulbricht's case.

Ulbricht was convicted of crimes by a jury of his peers though.

There are no mandatory maximums in sentencing guidelines. Just mandatory minimums.
