is certainly our fault that it will never again be used in this fashion. julian spent years in bill marsh. no one should spend a day in prison for giving the public news worthy and important information. in this case, information that the united states government had committed war crimes. i think the sense here with the whole a home coming is of course, one of human joy. people are really happy to see judy and assigned released. but underneath that, there's an issue of you know, how he changes for you. what do you have to do? how we have to bend his knee if you like, to accept a criminal conviction. and this goes to the heart of the debate. now, you know, uh the united states will maintain that julian assigned. just notice as the a 7, a criminal. this has huge impact on journalism, on a global scale. the united states, of course, was the engine of the case against the julian assign. so it's understandable that amount of with health problems with the young family who had spent, you know, you know, almost 15 years essentially the imprisoned 7 years, the ecuadorian embassy, remember at, i'm

it is certainly our hope that it will never be again used in this fashion. julian spent years in bill marsh. no one should spend a day in prison for giving the public news worthy and important information. in this case, information that the united states government had committed war crimes while as cause like not to or to correspondence shaped bodies. he joins me in the studio. i mean, obviously this is a celebration because of mine who many things was wrongfully prosecute. didn't cost rated, is free. he's reunited with his family box. the impact that we live with us just took us through what it means, the press freedom. mm hm. yeah, this is it, i mean it's a human story. the man has 2 young kids, a wife. he's been to the most brutal of conditions and people think he was imprisoned for 7 years in the ecuadorian embassy in a very small room. a room by the way, which was both by the intelligence services of the united states. and along side various plots, according to his legal team, to assess the tape assess item to adopt him at the security firm, which was monitoring the embassy was a part

it is certainly our hope that it will never be again used in this fashion. julian spent years in bill marsh. no one should spend a day in prison for giving the public news worthy and important information. in this case, information that the united states government had committed war crimes problem with the espionage act is there is no 1st amendment defense in the espionage act. it does by its terms, not matter. the reason why you, you publish of us for years and us government has claimed that these publications did great harm today in court of the united states. government admitted that there was not a single person anywhere that they can produce that was actually harmed buddies, publications. while joining the analogy, correspondence shapers, i'm sure it was, they spent quite comprehensively. they, it was the field, had some questions, just run us through what was the highlight stuff? yeah, well i mean, i do, i think the sense here with the whole the home community is of course, one of human joy. people are really happy to see judy and assigned released. but underneath that, there's an iss

it is certainly our hope that it will never be again used in this fashion. julian spent years in bill marsh. no one should spend a day in prison for giving the public news worthy and important information. in this case, information that the united states government had committed war crimes, that there were a civilian casualties ex, financially greater than the united states government had admitted in iraq and afghanistan. it was definitely in the public interest to have this information. and julian provided it to the public, the performed a tremendous public service, not a crime. the problem with the espionage act is there is no the 1st amendment defense in the espionage act. it does by its terms, not matter. the reason why you, you publish of us for years and us government has claimed that these publications did great harm today in court of the united states. government admitted that there was not a single person anywhere that they can produce that was actually harmed buddies, publications. and hopefully this is the end, not just of the case against julian assigned with the end of the case

bill marsh in isolation. 23 hours a day to night access to your family. and i think anybody would have taken that play. so i think has changed because there may anything on the hand that hey, i mean as soon as he gets to us 73, could the thing go bottom. so doing us onto the map in is absolutely not. i mean, we can see arise as the other thing, but he would be set free almost immediately on appeal to a higher court. this kind of underhanded action is not what's happening here. this is julia such put guilty key will appear before a judge. that plea will be entered, it will be accepted, and then he will be released because they will have sentenced him to time served. because this is not a trap. this is not anything of that nature. that would be the worst mistake the us girls could make. they will take something that already makes them look horribly bad and making it worse, more over they would expose themselves to having julia signed, actually walk free without having the plea deal. just so would it be the united states, the violated to play a bargain natur

but as we've been hearing from your report previously, 5 years is a very long time to spent in bill marsh present the conditions. they were pretty awful. he spent a lot of hours a day and solitary confinement. and we know it's had a really big impact on him physically and mentally. he hasn't actually been able to attend the court hearings in the u. k because of his condition. so i suspect there's some pragmatism here. i think the timing's really interesting as well. we was certainly very concerned that this was going to get my head in the us presidential election, which promises to be very ugly indeed. so hope is that that there will be a presidential pardon or in overturning of these conviction, ultimately, but we don't want to get too far ahead of us. so we still got this court hearing that striking buying stuff in the middle of the pacific cover. the next day it was, yeah. and as you mentioned 5 years and a maximum security prison, i think it was 7 years. hold up in the ecuadorian embassy to avoid the expedition to the u. s. before that 5 years in, in belmont, us just what impact do yo

i don't know exactly why they freed him so early on and left to in this ons, to rod and bill marsh, and we're trying to bring him to the united states. but what i can say is that it's been interesting to watch bradley martin or bradley manning rather, go out in start this political commentator career on the internet. and the politics that he professes seem to align a lot with the establishment nowadays. so that's an interesting note, right? why do you think that g then assigns, decided not to face trial in the united states? and again, i think that the united states got what they wanted. they wanted to, uh, take join us on the court so they could get him to admit that he violated the espionage i just for accessing uh, you know, sensitive materials related to the national defense of the united states of america . this is something the journalist at the newer time, cnn m, as in b, c, wherever they do this on a daily basis. of course, they're never going to be, you know, prosecuted for doing this very work. but this is going to be a president that will be leveraged against real truth telle

it is never been used in this fashion. julian spent years in bill marsh. no one should spend a day in prison for giving the public news worthy and important information. in this case, information that the united states government had committed war crimes. underneath that, there is an issue of, you know, how he changes for you. what do you have to do? how we have to bend disney if you like, to accept a criminal conviction. and this goes to the heart of the debate now. um, you know, uh, the united states will maintain that uh, judy and assign, just noticed as the 7 a criminal. this has huge impact on a journalism, on a global scale. the united states, of course, was the engine of the case against the julian assign, so it's understandable that amount with health problems with the young family who had spent you know, you know, almost 15 years, essentially imprisoned 7 years, the ecuadorian embassy, remember at, and then a bell marsh, while you security prison, anyone who knows anything about bell marsh or are security brew. this is a very green place, rapists
