Detention of Greenwald's husband 'extraordinary', says UK Chairman of Home Affairs Select Committee

8. How would I know? Either way, you stop someone entering the country with stolen material.

Maybe Miranda was especially uncooperative until he learned he would be formally charged if he didn't hand over the material. Maybe he clutched those thumb drives firmly in his hands and refused to let go.

My guess is that stretching his detention out to the maximum of nine hours was as much his fault as anyone else's. Maybe he hoped Greenwald would be able to ride to his rescue or something. It's possible he could have said, "It's a fair cop" and been cleared to go after an hour if he had handed over the stolen material.

That's just conjecture on my part.
