Assange Hearing Day 14
For anybody who will again try to argue that he helped hacking and therefore all mistreatment of him is excusable, considering the actual US charges, apparently:<p>&quot;just one of the 18 charges relate to computer intrusion and it carries just 5 years&#x27; jail, compared to the 175 years Assange faces if the maximum sentence was awarded.&quot;<p>The case is then clearly about 170 years worth of charges, not about hacking (the rest 5 years). And these charges are all  the &quot;Espionage Act&quot; charges for a non-US person doing obviously a journalistic work outside of the US.<p>Independently of that, in the article is, among other topics, a described testimony about the chronology of how the unredacted documents became public and a reference to the article:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;shadowproof.com&#x2F;2020&#x2F;09&#x2F;21&#x2F;trump-schwartz-grenell-wikileaks-extradition-death-penalty&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;shadowproof.com&#x2F;2020&#x2F;09&#x2F;21&#x2F;trump-schwartz-grenell-wi...</a><p>Which (a bit chaotically) describes the testimony of Cassandra Fairbanks about what she knows happened in or around White House related to Assange. Interestingly:<p>&quot;The prosecution did not object to the truth of the matter asserted — that Trump officials were directly involved in plans against Assange.&quot;
