Julian Assange Extradition to U.S. Blocked by Britain Over Suicide Risk

Julian Assange cannot be extradited to the United States to face charges over the release of secret military documents because of his serious mental health problems, a British judge has ruled—but the U.S. Department of Justice has vowed to appeal the dramatic decision.

They just said on CBS news that the UK won't extradite him to the US.

Judge blocks the extradition of Julian Assange to the United States

Sentenced to 50 weeks in prison, on 1 May 2019, for breaching bail.

That sentence has been served.

So why are they saying he needs Bail hearing?

But having been remanded in custody, it is unlikely he will be freed from high-security HMP Belmarsh on Wednesday given the US government's intent to appeal. American officials have 14 days to state their grounds.

District Judge Vanessa Baraitser ruled that while US prosecutors met the tests for Mr Assange to be extradited for trial, the US was incapable of preventing him from attempting to take his own life.

She outlined evidence of his self harm and suicidal thoughts and said: "The overall impression is of a depressed and sometimes despairing man fearful for his future."

She said: "Faced with the conditions of near total isolation without the protective factors which limited his risk at HMP Belmarsh, I am satisfied the procedures described by the US will not prevent Mr Assange from finding a way to commit suicide and for this reason I have decided extradition would be oppressive by reason of mental harm and I order his discharge."

If Trump had ANY decency, he would pardon Assange. But alas, that could never happen.

Bail hearing 10am Wednesday.

Finally a slice of good news.

Really hoping Trump pardons him.

Mexico’s president has offered asylum to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, hours after a British judge refused to extradite Assange to the US to face espionage charges.
“Assange is a journalist and deserves a chance, I am in favor of pardoning him,” President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador told reporters on Monday, saying “we'll give him protection.”
