Re: There are reports of a plea deal negotiation for Assange
I don’t actually see how he can plead on charges brought by a US prosector from outside that prosecutor’s jurisdiction. And if this is possible, and he then pleads guilty or no contest to a charge in the US, it seems to create a slam dunk case for extradition, since he then either has a conviction or probation in the US whose sentence he has otherwise escaped - unless the sentence is time served in another jurisdiction.
