In the first few days of his second presidency, Trump pardoned Ross Ulbricht. This created a news media frenzy. Ross Ulbricht was arguably one of the most successful American drug dealers of all time. He was serving a life sentence after he was convicted and had been in prison for 11 years.
It reminded me of the book, American Kingpin, by Nick Bilton, which I read and reviewed here in 2018. I thought you might be interested in Ulbricht’s story. Click on the link below for my review:
American Kingpin – by Nick Bilton
It is a very readable book, a page-turner, and more relevant today now that we know that one of the most successful drug dealers of all time is back out on the street, thanks to the Law-and-Order-President.
