NEWLY-ELECTED US President Donald Trump has given the founder of dark web marketplace Silk Road a full and unconditional pardon.
The decision has saved Ross Ulbricht from serving two life sentences after he was convicted in 2015 – with Trump labelling prosecutors “scum”.
Silk Road was used by some to sell illegal drugs across the country.
Ulbricht was convicted a decade ago in New York over a narcotics and money laundering conspiracy.
Trump said on Truth Social: “The scum that worked to convict him were some of the same lunatics who were involved in the modern day weaponization of government against me.
“He was given two life sentences, plus 40 years. Ridiculous!”
