    We all remember those awkward Sunday mornings after a big night out. You try awfully hard to clean up the sick that missed the bucket, opening all the windows to air out the smell of cheap vodka and peppermint liqueur. Your mom walks in and it’s safe to say she is less than impressed.

    Now, imagine your mother was to find out you ran an underground internet marketplace for illegal drugs, a site called Silk Road that was once valued at $104 million and had $14 million worth of transactions on its spreadsheets.

    Ross Ulbricht suffered the misfortune of having all his indiscretions laid bare in court whilst his mother watched on, the charges mounting against her little boy. Her reaction, taken from the Daily Beast:

    As one damning bit of evidence after another from the laptop was entered into evidence on Wednesday morning, Lyn Ulbricht sat looking battered in the tender part of her that must have been most deeply touched when she first held that easy baby three decades ago.

    At the lunch break, Ross stood and turned toward his mother, raising his eyebrows.

    But his mom did not even look at him as he was escorted back to the holding pen…

    Yeah, I’m sure she will forgive him in the long run, but for now he is definitely in the naughty corner.
