There's an interesting problem here. Any criminal accusations against him are going to be presumed false by virtually everybody. Imagine if he'd been arrested for possession of drugs. Would you believe that? No way. So he's pretty much alright to smuggle drugs, because if he gets caught it'll look so much like a setup that any jury will struggle to convict.
- jacquesm 16y agoAccusations are never enough. The proof is in the evidence. Assange is not free to smuggle drugs, just as the government is not free to plant drugs on him to try to accuse him of something that he didn't do. Both are illegal. The problem is in separating fact from fiction and making sure that you do the right thing. Juries have that problem anyway.
