Whatever happened with that condom, that definitely falls under "reasonable doubt."
Considering what happened to Assange after that, the first thing that comes to mind is the Gulf of Tonkin incident.
- lawtalkinghuman 7y agoWhether that amounts to reasonable doubt is something that could be determined by a jury in a court of law following rules of evidence and procedure, if Assange went to trial.

- himinlomax 7y agoAre you denying that his claims of being persecuted by the US government were unfounded, given that they have been proven right?
- DagAgren 7y agoI deny that this is a valid reason to flee prosecution in Sweden.
