As many people know, Roger Thomas Clark was a main character in the story of the Silk Road marketplace, and was arrested in Thailand in 2015, and earlier this year (2018) he was extradited to the US to face trial. He's had a pretrial conference since then on June 19, and another one on September 20. Here's the details of the September 20th pretrial conference.

Roger Thomas Clark is currently held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. (Ross Ulbricht was initially held there then moved to the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York during his trial).

Because of the huge volume of discovery data, they're taking the rare step at the MDC of providing him was a special laptop with access to electronic discover seven days a week, instead of the typical 3-4 hours per week. The laptop itself has been disabled from accessing the internet.

The current information in the Government's possession is between 10-12 terabytes, and was obtained through the devices that were obtained from Clark during the search warrant. Three of those devices are still encrypted and efforts are ongoing to decrypt them.

Clark's council Stephanie Carvlin asked for more time to get through the material, so the next pretrial conference is scheduled for January 25, 2019. Jury selection and trial scheduled for September 23rd, 2019.

The government estimates the trial will take three weeks, based on how long the Ulbricht trial lasted.

Carvlin mentioned the possibility of "alternate disposition of the case" which I assume means a possible plea deal.

Gah. For his sake, I hope he doesn't opt for a trial. Just based on my own very distant knowledge of the US non-justice system, which admittedly, is mostly formed via TV shows and stuff I've read online.

Whatever his role, even if he was every single person involved in Silk Road ever, he doesn't deserve to die in prison. It's crazy this entire thing has rumbled on for so long.

Which part did you ask? If he was St Exo? - He really missed his vocation in life, he should have been a writer. Talking of which, I'm thinking about buying your latest book I've got your first one, I hope it does get optioned and becomes a TV show. I'm really impressed that you went on that epic journey from Oz to Bangkok to the UK meeting everyone from La Moustache to Gary Davis. I always assumed La Moustache was based, I dunno, not in the UK I guess.

Which one was the most wildly different to how you imagined in your head?... Which was the most interesting? Is it all in the book?

I met ONE person from SR in RL, it was interesting, we got wrecked and chatting shit about stuff but it was beyond bizarre talking about people from the internet in person. Also, they made me call him by their screen name. Lol. #OPSEC :roflmao:

Then a few months later they messaged out of the blue and asked if I would lend them a few thousand pounds, I politely declined. Never heard from them again; :laugh: I'm glad curiosity didn't get the cat though.

I accused him of being Oracle et al :)

Thank you :) TBH the new one is honestly a much better read. Had a publisher with much less paranoid lawyers

None were all that different to what I expected. Gary Davis was much nicer than I thought he would be
