It looks like the sentence is actually life with no parole. Good.

From the article:

The defense also made an extensive appeal for leniency, citing Ulbricht’s ability to contribute to society in spite of his crimes. Ulbricht’s team submitted nearly a hundred letters from friends, family, and other acquaintances, testifying to Ulbricht’s good character. “I’ve had my youth, and I know you must take away my middle years,” Ulbricht wrote in a pre-sentencing statement, “but please leave me my old age.” Judge Forrest had a harsh reaction to Ulbricht’s plea, describing it as a “display of arrogance that the court takes into consideration.”
