@AC re: Wow, what a rant
Silly me,
I wasn't ranting or raving like a loon. (Unlike your post)
I was responding to yet another (maybe you?) AC who doesn't quite understand the timeline.
Lets try this one more time.
The Swedish prosecutor wants to bring Assange in so that they can question him and then charge him. (This was explained in court documents as the legal procedure in Sweden. Interrogation/Interview prior to arrest/formal charges.)
The Swedish prosecutor contacted Assange's attorney to present Assange. Lawyer stalls, and stalls again. By the time the Swedish prosecution suspects that Assange is about to take off, its already too late. Assange left the country.
Clearly the rest of your post deals in a fairy tale and not in due process. Once Assange retains counsel, all communication goes through counsel. Its that simple. Assange counsel admitted to misleading and allowing Assange to abscond from Sweden to the UK. Again this fact is already documented in the first extradition hearing's court documents.
Again, your point... 'questionable testimony'. LOL... you do know the place where said testimony is heard, right? IN SWEDEN, where the alleged crime took place. Of course had JA (As you call him) stayed in Sweden, he could have confronted his accusers. Instead he's hired a PR firm, a bunch of lawyers all trying to keep his arse out of SWEDEN and jail.
Clearly you have no respect for due process or the law. You accuse myself and Scorchoi of being agents and having agendas to smear the good name of your best pal Ass-n-age. The truth is that you probably are a paid shill who could care less that justice is done.
Me? I'm just an American watching this all unfold. My bet is that the stupid git, goes back to Sweden and his subsequent actions and those of his lawyer will play out and affect the court's decision as to his sentence. He clearly has not shown any remorse, only disdain for the Swedish people and their laws. Do I think he did it? Yup. Had he done it in the UK, US, Australia... he probably wouldn't get charged. But no. The stupid git did this in SWEDEN and under their laws, he is alleged to have committed a crime. So be it.
With respect to the good ol' US of A and their DoJ... they are patient. They may not always be able to prevent a crime from occurring, they are very good at pulling together information after the fact. When they are done, if there is enough information against Assange, they will charge him. And then they will extradite him. Not from Sweden or the UK, but from Australia. Like I said, he'll get booted from Sweden back to Australia. Heck he even already pleaded to be allowed to go there. (Of course he can't due to the EAW that is in effect.)
Already Assange hasn't made any friends in the Australian government. His dumping of docs may also have placed some of their soldiers in jeopardy... So lets see how this plays out. I've already bought more option on the pop corn futures today...
