Maybe he hoped that he could reach an agreement with the UK. Anyways, I'd rather sit in a room for the rest of my life than to face what could await him in the US: Solitary confinement for the rest of his life (if not, maybe being raped), torture, forcing him to answer prison wards every 30 minutes - even during nights - to make sure he doesn't commit suicide (that's what they did to Manning) I'd probably even prefer suicide to that treatment.
