Reply #70: So lets just break those up and squish them now.

1) solitary. lots of people are in solitary. People who would be killed in genpop and other people who committed espionage in the past. I'm sure his defense will enter all these concens into evidence at his trial. And they will be addressed then. Solitary is not torture, no matter how much some people want it to be.

Lots of people have refused to speak until they are told they will face a federal death penalty case with a high probability of conviction. Based on the odds of being dead in about 3 years bradass may have changed his mind. May not have, he will at minimum serve life in solitary. Or he may catch the needle in indiana on the same spot as mcveigh.

2) lamo is not the evidence, the evidence are mannings own words, you can read bradass87's confession online. That alone is enough to bury him.. His own logged chats will be evidence. His user id on siprnet will be evidence. Every cable he stole will be traced back to hid id and potentially video of the room, while he is stealing. See post one on the Death Penalty case. Manning is done.

3) Privilege gives you the right to publish. If a story is about hookers you have a right to interview then, a right to witness potential criminal acts, you DO NOT have a right to be a pimp or to peddle you ass as part of a story. That remains a crime. If assange pimped him for data, he is fucked too.

So IF assange did ANYTHING other than accept data he WILL be charged with conspiracy at a minimum and he will be extradited.
