>Will he be tried by a common jury or a military one? No way a common jury finds him guilty.
Neither. This is the Espionage Act, so he's going to the spy court. Those doors will be closed and the jury will consist of people who work for the government. The court case will be over way way faster than you might expect.

- sleepysysadmin 5y ago>No, he isn’t going to a FISA court, those don’t try criminal cases… Never said he was. He's going to the spy court in virginia. It's obviously not something you list on wikipedia. FISA is too monitored. The court he'll be going to always sides with the government. Assange is going to the same place Daniel Hale, Chelsea Manning, Paul Manafort, various terrorists. I wonder if Assange will ever see if he is guilty or not. Epstein treatment incoming. Though I do believe he will be treated properly, no enhanced torture or anything.
- ceejayoz 5y agoManning was court martialed, in Maryland. Manafort and Hale weren't tried in any sort of special court, and it's definitely on Wikipedia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_District_Court_for_the_Eastern_District_of_Virginia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_District_Court_f.... Manafort proceedings were public; reporters live-tweeted it. Hale pled guilty pre-trial.
