41. I see you've been reading the tabloids. But then, this is a typical example

of how this case has been handled, mostly in the tabloids, let's NOT talk about the facts of the case, let's do a Rush Limbaugh and talk about him not flushing. I guess this has something to do with this very serious case in some way?

What do you think, eg, of the exculpatory evidence in this case, kept out of the gutter press while they talk about flushing toilets, such as texts between the two women plotting to 'make money' by 'destroying his reputation'. The defense wants to know if they were attempting to blackmail him by going to the police to 'ask a question' never intending, as they have said, that charges would be made against him. How about a text on the night of the supposed 'crime' to friends stating, 'I'm here with the most awesome man, and he's in my bed'? Or witness testimony, that one of the women was heard chiding Assange who she was with at a social event 'I woke up and you were gone. I thought you had dumped me'. Mmm, so she woke up an he wasn't there?

And so, so much more. All available in the transcripts although never handed over to the Defense, allowable unless charges are filed. THEN the exculpatory evidence, and there there is a mountain of it, will be released by the Defense to the media. I actually saw some of those texts in real time two years ago, before they were scrubbed from the Internet btw.

Some people believe this the reason why the case was dismissed by the first prosecutor, and why no charges have yet been filed. The actual evidence paints a whole different picture. Which will eventually if he is ever charged, be all over the media.
