This is extremely likely. The SilkRoad admins all have access to the old (and the new) DPR forum account. One of them was using it even after Ross was arrested, leading someone to ask why DPR was showing up on the active members list of the SR forum even after be was arrested.

Could that not have been the feds?

Libertas said it was SR admins. If it's a lie, I can't think of a good reason for it.

Fair enough. I wasn't familiar with the situation, that just would have been the conclusion I jumped to, and wondered why it wasn't yours.

Thanks for the info.
