We are a group of family, friends and supporters who are working to free Ross Ulbricht from a barbaric double life plus forty-year sentence for all non-violent charges. Our mission is to have Ross be a free man again and give him the chance to start a family and contribute to society. This is Ross’s 9th year in prison. He has expressed heartfelt remorse for creating Silk Road and accepts responsibility for the mistake he made. He has learned his lesson the hard way, and if released tomorrow, he would never break the law again.

Our aim is not only to help Ross, however. By living through this ordeal, and getting to know other prisoners and their families, we have learned that Ross is not unique in how he was investigated, tried and sentenced.

In addition to fighting for Ross’s freedom, we are focused on the following issues: Criminal justice reform The right to a fair trial Mass incarceration Excessive sentencing practices The failed Drug War The right to privacy Prosecutorial misconduct.

Our supporters are from all over the world and all walks of life, ages and political persuasions. They are people who see past the media sensationalism that has clouded Ross’s case to the importance of the larger issues his case impacts.
