Top Cats Hat Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 23 minutes ago, geared said: Not to mention the many millions of pounds spent attempting to enforce the original arrest warrant. To be fair it was not Assange's fault that the Met Police spent so much money on an obviously political case. The daughter of a friend of mine in Leeds was repeatedly beaten by her partner and after three years decided to make a statement about the assaults. The guy refused to come to the police station to be interviewed so a warrant was issued for his arrest. He was walking around Leeds for a whole year before being arrested driving a stolen car. The only attempts made to execute the warrant was to knock at his mother's door once a month for three months then they gave up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll get taken to the states and given several decades behind bars. Many more years of court appearances to come. It's been so long I can't recall which US laws he has broken (as a non-US citizen) or what any charges are, but I doubt any warrant several decades in prison so extradition could be a problem if that looks likely.

Yes it was very clear political influence was used, they had officers stationed outside the place 24/7 for a very long time. Money that could have been better spent elsewhere.

handypandy Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 If he survives any assassination attempt, this could get very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
