The Variety Show

New vice article which is rather well done on VJ.

As always it's hard to tell if it's a tall tale by VJ to protect himself or rope attention in, but this one makes for a good read.

I particularly like the last quite which references u/lamoustache research.

"Anyways, as any member of the old guard can tell you, I live for this shit!"

I wonder why the feds waited two years to have Clark arrested if they have had his dox all this time...

They will try and fuck VJ like they fucked Ross but they won't have such an easy time suppressing the rampant corruption in the silk road investigation this time. Plenty more corrupt and dirty cops involved just waiting to be exposed cough Tarbell cough


[2 Points] Deafcunt:

An unnamed collaborating witness is also mentioned in the complaint, who told law enforcement in April that “Roger Clark” is the individual behind the Variety Jones persona, as well as a host of other aliases. That collaborating witness has already been charged with crimes for his participation in Silk Road, and is cooperating with law enforcement in the hopes of getting a lighter sentence.

Hmmmmmmmm... Wonder who this is????

So let me ask everyone this. Does anyone believe that all the corruption that has come to light since Ross's conviction will help his appeal? I truly would like to believe it will because I'd hate to see him locked up for life. Given the fact they suppressed so much i can't understand how it was considered a "fair trail".

Well this is starting to seem more likely. And what is bravado by PoM and what is the truth is being separated. Still can't help that Motherboard/Vice aren't helping this guys case though.
