"Innocent until proven guilty" doesn't exonerate a person from personal judgement based on facts simply because they have not been convicted in a court of law.
Edit -
Also, just because a case has been dropped doesn't mean they weren't guilty. Based on evidence, it's more than reasonable to state he attempted to have someone assassinated.
You're also going to need to provide more supporting information than a single article that's a clear opinion piece written by a business that is biased towards supporting Ulbricht. You also share this bias being an apparent libertarian yourself, which could imply you cherry-picked this article.
Not that I can't change my mind, but that one link ain't gonna do it.
