Should have had to stand trial for rape and other sexual crimes in Sweden. But seems the crimes has reached its "period of limitation" ? though. 

So disappointing in Pamela Anderson for falling for this dude.


On 18 November 2010, Marianne Ny ordered the detention of Julian Assange on suspicion of rape, three cases of sexual molestation and unlawful coercion. The Stockholm District Court acceded to the order and issued a European Arrest Warrant to execute it.[10] The warrant was appealed to the Svea Court of Appeal which upheld its issuance, but lowered it to suspicion of rape of a lesser degree, unlawful coercion and two cases of sexual molestation rather than three.[22][23] The warrant was also appealed to the Supreme Court of Sweden, which decided not to hear the case.[24] At this time Assange had been living in the United Kingdom for 1–2 months. An extradition hearing took place in an English court in February 2011 to consider an application by Swedish authorities for the extradition of Assange to Sweden. The outcome of the hearing was announced on 24 February 2011, when the extradition warrant was upheld. Assange appealed to the High Court. On 2 November 2011, the court upheld the extradition decision and rejected all four grounds for the appeal as presented by Assange's legal representatives. £19,000 costs was also awarded against Assange. On 5 December 2011, Assange was refused permission by the High Court to appeal to the Supreme Court. The High Court certified that his case raised a point of law of general public importance. The Supreme Court subsequently granted permission to appeal,[25] and heard the appeal on 1 and 2 February 2012.[26] The court reserved its judgment and dismissed the appeal on 30 May 2012.[27] Assange has said the investigation is "without basis". He remained on conditional bail in the United Kingdom.[14][28][29] On 19 June 2012, Assange sought refuge at Ecuador's Embassy in London and was granted temporary asylum. On 16 August 2012, he was granted full asylum by the Ecuadorian government but has been unable to leave the embassy without being arrested.

    The news says they got till sometime in 2020 to try him...but I thought at one time they decided they were not going to pursue the charges??  Maybe I read wrong.

    Sweden’s jails are probably nicer then the Ecuador embassy.  He might even get to play Halo online. On the downside he will be forced to cut pizza with a pair of goddamn scissors...

    He should answer to the Swedish charges. The US charges are just political charges and he’s about to become a political prisoner.  The US is one corrupt country that this guy, Chelsea Manning and Snowden has exposed them as...

    anyone who exposes corruption within government is fine with me...

    No, they’re criminal charges. But I’d be fine with having him stand trial in Sweden, serve his time if convicted and then face extradition to the US to face trial.

    wait weren't there a lot of people here who supported wiki leaks and assange when they first came out?  maybe ill have to review that other thread to see but if my memory serves me correctly a lot of people were all for him and wiki leaks at the beginning.  
    If he released info on Trumps corruption most here would be donating to his legal defence...that’s a fact.  Same with Snowdon.

    He should answer to the Swedish charges. The US charges are just political charges and he’s about to become a political prisoner.  The US is one corrupt country that this guy, Chelsea Manning and Snowden has exposed them as...

    anyone who exposes corruption within government is fine with me...
    No, they’re criminal charges. But I’d be fine with having him stand trial in Sweden, serve his time if convicted and then face extradition to the US to face trial. 
    Bullshit...they are political charges.  The US is getting Just as corrupt as the banana republics you go to war with every few years...take of your star spangled glasses.  You like your government spying on you...home of the free my ass.  Home of the corrupt is more like it.

    Seems you know something the rest of us don't.   What are the US charges levied against Assange? 

    Because I haven't seen that published anywhere.  Do tell....

    nm...found it

    https://www.justice.gov/usao-edva/pr/wikileaks-founder-charged-computer-hacking-conspiracy


    "federal charge of conspiracy to commit computer intrusion for agreeing to break a password to a classified U.S. government computer.

    According to court documents unsealed today, the charge relates to Assange’s alleged role in one of the largest compromises of classified information in the history of the United States.

    The indictment alleges that in March 2010, Assange engaged in a conspiracy with Chelsea Manning, a former intelligence analyst in the U.S. Army, to assist Manning in cracking a password stored on U.S. Department of Defense computers"


    Does not sound political.  Sounds like an enemy combatant.
