    What makes you think they just want the main guy? From Reddit link:

    "It's unstated from when the investigation started, but they received a complete copy of the Silk Road web server on the 23rd of July 2013. This was all done under the Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty, which implies that they had access to current site information up until the point they shut the site down. This included user account and transaction information. It's unclear whether or not this covers addresses and other sensitive transaction information."

    I'd be surprised if they don't go after the major sellers.
