Why, for example, did the Swedish prosecutor decide to investigate whether Assange had raped a woman who complained to police he had sex with her while she was unconscious?

And why didn't the investigation end when Assange left Sweden immediately after the prosecutor and Assange's attorney had arranged a time for Assange to be interviewed by the prosecutor?

Why are the London police constantly watching the embassy where Assange has lived ever since he jumped bail after repeatedly losing his deportation case at every level in the UK courts?

Why didn't any media outlets report Assange's election as an Australian senator?

Don't all police departments give suspects copies of the investigative files before interviewing?

And how many different lawyers does Assange really need?
