(62,325 posts)A warrant does NOT equal charges, since when did become the case? The warrant was NEVER NEEDED, he was ALWAYS available to speak to the prosecutor.
He spoke freely to the Swedish Police but the Prosecutor WOULD NOT SPEAK to HIM. Why wouldn't she speak to him if she was so 'concerned' about a crime having been committed?
Why did the prosecutor, not once, or twice, but several times refuse to 'find time' to speak to him after he stayed longer than intended in Sweden JUST TO TRY TO SPEAK TO HER?
She told his lawyer, 'he is free to leave for London'. Assange didn't want to leave before speaking to her. But after trying and being told she couldn't make time for him, he finally went to London, told her to let him know when she had time and he would return.
It was a blatant trap the entire shame of a process. And you trying to defend it is a waste of your time and everyone else's.
The world knows what this was all about, it's better not to even try to 'explain' it away.
They WANTED to issue that fake warrant in which they lie without any legal challenge.
Those were not CHARGES, they were ALLEGATIONS.
Now, if you can point to the CHARGES not the ALLEGATIONS, then do so, but I know you cannot because this Prosecutor will NEVER file charges in this case because there IS NO CASE.
Btw, there are literally millions of warrants issues every day at the request of someone or another. A warrant is NOT a charge, it is a request to appear in court to answer ALLEGATIONS made by someone against you.
I know they thought we are all stupid. Some of the allegations btw, in that warrant, have been PROVEN to be FALSE.
Too bad people have followed all this very closely and actually KNOW the FACTS.
