Lol...he was the highest volume trader for two years in Miami i.e narco trafficking route 🙄. He gonna get maximum sentence and will likely still have to pay any taxes owed.

Federal investigators in Miami with the Internal Revenue Service, the FBI, and the Drug Enforcement Administration worked together on the case.
Rodriguez’s sentencing was set for 11 a.m., April 2, at Miami federal court. He faces up to five years in prison.

Depends....if he is now ratting out others, SUBSTANTIAL ASSISTANCE, 5K1.1 MOTIONS, AND RULE 35 MOTIONS, or became a Confidential Informant or Cooperating Witness...he may NOT even do prison time...but even if he goes to prison, he may just be there as a Jailhouse Informant to infiltrate the inner circle of inmates the feds suspect has money hidden (e.g Cash, Bitcoin, Monero, Gold etc). The feds pay good.... up to 30% of the loot they seize.
(and when the feds do it...there is NOTHING that︀ can be done about 😳 )

DEA, ATF, IRS, and others are even︂ worse 🙄

True but not sure what value he would be to them now. He was just︂ some random dude on localbitcoin and not an insider of a criminal organization etc. They︃ would have offered him some sort of plea deal already if it was the case.︄
Maybe, we'll see.... and only find out after he is released and his probation is over...
Many factors come into play e.g.
(1) if they sentence him within the range based on his PSI
(2) and the sentencing guidelines
(3) and if the courts don't do a downward departure at or after sentencing (re-sentencing)︀
(4) and he does complete his full sentence (based on the amended 18 U.S.C. §︁ 3624(b): so he can earn up to 54 days of good time credit for every︂ year of their imposed sentence rather than for every year of their sentenced served)
...then we know for sure he got shafted smi(&%
But knowing the feds...they WILL make him an︃ offer and knowing +99.99% of the elements in there, he'll take the deal... Lockdown is︄ at 21:30 and the phones won't turn back on until 08:00, so this gives his︅ significant other (assume they stay with him; most relationships will NOT last past 18 months︆ anyway) plenty of time to enjoy themselves without the fear of getting caught dev56"""
rof/% rof/% rof/% rof/% rof/%
PS. I'm︇ NOT joking here... the feds would pay PIs to take pictures of the inmates' wives︈ out and about (public) and bring it in to show and tell the inmate to︉ snitch on the others because their wives/GFs are cheating on them and spending their money︊ on other guys. +99.99% of the most hardcore inmates WILL snitch at this point... The accused will NOT only sing, but they'll compose as well rof/% rof/% rof/% rof/%
I heard this line first︋ in the early '80s and it stuck with me ever since...
