“The journal, according to Turner’s account, also details how Ulbricht grew several kilos of psychedelic mushrooms in a lab in an ‘off-the-grid’ cabin to have an initial product to sell on the Silk Road. In a spreadsheet found on Ulbricht’s computer, Turner said Ulbricht’s expenses and income were listed, including a line for ‘sr inc.’ that he said listed its value at $104 million.
