Richard Pollard aka 1StopOz sentence reduced [Silk Road]

1StopOz's sentence was reduced on appeal

I think his Bitcoin stash was sold off a few months ago for around $9m or so, but I'm not sure

[4 Points] None:

no shocker they reduced his sentenced...gotta get this guy back out on the street so gubment can arrest him again in the future and steal more of his money

nonetheless I am happy to hear he'll spend less time in a cage than they initially deemed necessary.

Yep

"Pollard's bitcoins, which had been worth $700,000 when he was arrested in December 2012 but are now worth $7.3 million, are expected to be sold at public auction by the Asset Confiscation Operations office with the proceeds to go to the state's consolidated revenue."
