Swedish Prosecutors Reopen Julian Assange's Rape Case
Swedish prosecutors will reopen an inquiry into a rape allegation against Wikileaks co-founder Julian Assange, weeks after he was dragged from the Ecuadorian embassy in London to face British and U.S. charges. Assange avoided extradition to Sweden for seven years after he holed himself up at the Ecuadorean embassy in London in 2012. However, Ecuador revoked its protection of Assange last month and he's now in British custody and awaiting a U.S. extradition hearing. He has always denied the rape charges. Sweden's deputy director of public prosecutions, Eva-Marie Persson, announced early Monday that Swedish prosecutors will revisit the sexual assault investigation two years after it was dropped. The case was dropped because, at the time, Sweden believed it was impossible to have him extradited to the country.

He'll have his day is court. He'll expose what really happened to Seth Rich. He'll be exonerated.

Wikileaks founder Julian Assange could be sentenced to 175 years behind bars under new charges in the US. An 18-count indictment returned by a federal grand jury on Thursday charged Assange with Espionage Act violations, in an escalation from initial charges levied in April for conspiring with Chelsea Manning to crack a computer password.

If you and I both murdered two different people, we go to court, you get found guilty, and go to jail for life, I get off and walk free. You couldn't use my getting off, as a defence in your case, to somehow excuse your offence. This obviously wouldn't be fair, but life sometimes isn't. This sort of thing will occur on a regular basis. If he gets found guilty he is going to jail for a long time.

If he gets found guilty, he is looking at some serious porridge.
He may well spend years in his jail cell thinking that life is not fair, but most of us already knew that anyway.
He might end up doing some time in Sweden on the rape charge, before he gets to the US.
You couldn't use my getting off, as a defence in your case, to somehow excuse your offence.
This obviously wouldn't be fair, but life sometimes isn't.

If he gets found guilty he is going to jail for a long time.
If the U S gets their hands on Assange hes looking at life plus plus
I suppose that When the Swedes are through with him he could try the "No possible fair trial" defense to stop any extradition attempt.
Although if IKEA want to open up in every U S state who knows.
It is comparing apples with pears.
