Kingdom Market Admin Jailed 200 Months in U.S.

Kingdom Market admin Alan Bill sentenced to 200 months in prison for running darknet site selling drugs and stolen data.

A Slovak national who played a key role in operating the darknet marketplace Kingdom Market has been sentenced in the United States to more than 16 years in prison.

Alan Bill, 33, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Cristian M. Stevens in St. Louis on Thursday to 200 months in prison for his involvement in running and supporting the illicit online marketplace.

According to the U.S. Department of Justice, Bill helped facilitate the operation of Kingdom Market, a darknet platform used to trade illegal drugs, stolen personal data, counterfeit documents, and cybercrime services. The marketplace operated through anonymizing technologies and cryptocurrency payments designed to conceal users’ identities and transactions.

Investigators said the platform functioned as a global criminal marketplace, allowing vendors to advertise narcotics and stolen information while customers used encrypted communication channels to complete transactions. The site also reportedly hosted listings for hacked accounts, financial data, and digital tools used for fraud and intrusion activities.

The case was the result of a coordinated international investigation involving U.S. and European law enforcement agencies, which traced infrastructure, communications, and cryptocurrency flows linked to the marketplace before identifying Bill as a key administrator.

Authorities described Kingdom Market as part of a broader ecosystem of darknet platforms that blend drug trafficking with cyber-enabled crime, enabling offenders to operate across borders with reduced risk of detection.

Officials said the 200-month sentence reflects the seriousness of facilitating large-scale darknet criminal activity and the continued global effort to dismantle such hidden marketplaces.
