Entrapped Gary McKinnon faces extradition to US

[Chi_of_life]

Note in the sun article how Gary Mckinnon is ... "originally from Glasgow"

[paul wright]

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8381961.stm
How much longer can this go on
8 years and counting
These criminal gangsters in control in the UK, US and EU want to criminalise the innocent Gary
Free Gary

My justification for putting this in the 9/11 thread is that the time GM was trawling the Pentagon and NASA computers for evidence of extraterrestials and free energy was concommitant with the planning and implementation of 9/11, those same forces which are insanely trying to extradite him
It's part of the build up

[Moon-in-Taurus]

If this were to go ahead I anticipate ice sheets, an unforgettable betrayal, devastating indeed the failure to defend him on the part of our own government. I expect a lot of quiet people are getting more and more deeply upset about this.

Imagine clemency, imagine magnanimity.

HACKER GETS NEW HOPE ON EXTRADITION
Computer hacker Gary McKinnon faces extradition to the United States

Daily Express - Tuesday December 1,2009

Home Secretary Alan Johnson has said he is considering granting computer hacker Gary McKinnon extra time to apply for a judicial review of his case.

Mr McKinnon, who has Asperger's syndrome, faces up to 60 years in jail for breaking into American government systems after the September 11 terror attacks.

Mr Johnson, who decided the Government will not intervene in the case last week, told the Commons he was considering a request from Mr McKinnon's legal team to extend the seven-day period they have to apply for a judicial review until December 17.

He conceded there were legitimate concerns over Mr McKinnon's mental health, but said this did not prevent him from being extradited to the US to face the charges.

Mr Johnson said: "I am currently considering a request from Mr McKinnon's lawyers for an extension of the seven-day time limit."

He went on: "There are legitimate concerns over Mr McKinnon's health and the United States authorities have provided assurances, which were before the High Court in July, that his needs will be met."

He added it was clear there was "no real risk" that, if convicted, Mr McKinnon would serve any of his sentence in a "supermax" prison. Referring to the "perceived imbalance in UK/US extradition arrangements in respect of probable causes versus reasonable suspicion", Mr Johnson added: "I am clear that no such imbalance exists."

He also said that this issue was "academic" in Mr McKinnon's case as he had already admitted much of the conduct of which he was accused.

Glasgow-born Mr McKinnon's legal team have warned that if they are not granted a judicial review, then he could be extradited by Christmas.

Mr McKinnon has said he was looking for evidence of UFOs when he hacked into the computer systems and wants to be tried in the UK.

Gary's mum, Janis, has sent us this:


Please help my son Gary McKinnon by Texting GARY to 65000 before a court decision or extradition can take place. This will show this Government the level of support there is for Gary to be kept and tried in the U.K
For more info see: http://bit.ly/4xIQ2E

3,750 Texts were sent for Gary in one single day but we need help to keep up the impetus.

Re-our Text4Gary campaign: No one makes any money from it, Texts are charged by text company at standard STD rates and a celebrity supporter has funded the response to each Text.
The Text campaign is a poll of British people voting for Gary to be kept in the U.K and translates into numbers of British citizens that support Gary.
Details of amount of supporters that have Text4Gary is sent to the Government and the Home Sec on a Daily Basis. This campaign will end on the 1st February 2010.
In order to allow people to vote by Text we need to try and spread the word so that everyone gets to know about the Text campaign for Gary and Importantly the number for them to Text to.

I would be very grateful to all who can help me in this endeavour.

Many Thanks & Best Wishes

Janis Sharp (Gary McKinnon's Mum)

Hacker granted review on extradition ruling
By Jack Doyle, Press Association


Wednesday, 13 January 2010


A High Court judge will rule on whether Home Secretary Alan Johnson was wrong to allow the extradition of computer hacker Gary McKinnon, it was announced today.
Mr McKinnon's lawyers have been granted permission for judicial review of Mr Johnson's decision that sending him to the US for trial would not breach his human rights.

His lawyer, Karen Todner, said she was "delighted" by the decision. A hearing is likely to take place in April or May.

But she warned that Mr McKinnon, who suffers from a form of autism known as Asperger's Syndrome, was in a "very poor mental state" because of stress.

She appealed to Mr Johnson to reverse his decision and asked US president Barack Obama to withdraw the request for extradition.

She said in a statement: "I am delighted that the High Court has agreed to grant permission for the judicial review of Alan Johnson's decision to extradite Gary McKinnon.

"However, that is countered by the very poor mental state of Mr McKinnon due to the ongoing pressure of these proceedings.

"I would urge Mr Johnson to review his decision and I appeal to President Obama to withdraw the application for extradition.

"Mr McKinnon's suffering has gone on long enough."

In November Mr Johnson rejected the application, saying he had "no general discretion" to refuse the request from the US government.

Authorities in the US want Mr McKinnon to stand trial for hacking into top secret military computers.

But the 43-year-old from Wood Green, north London, says he was looking for evidence of UFOs.

Mr McKinnon's mother Janis Sharp said: "I can't believe it - some common sense at last.

"This judge has made such an honourable and decent decision. The relief is incredible, indescribable.

"We've fought for so long for compassion and understanding. Gary's health has badly declined, it's been traumatic to see.

"I hope this brings him comfort that the right decision will be made, even if it requires the courts to impose it rather than our Government to reach it."

From a paper going from bad to worse daily:-

Gary McKinnon: Theresa May urged to block extradition order

Computer hacker's campaigners have called for support from the new coalition government in a bid to overturn extradition order

Why is no-one in the MSM listening to his extraordinary claims of what he found on the NASA computers and why were they almost totally open in the first place? Deliberate disinfo leakage? Inadvertent incompetence?

Whatever, a reminder from the man's own lips of what he discovered:-

"Yes, there is anti-gravity, free energy, spacecraft that we have captured and reverse engineered and yes, it is all extraterrestrial in origin"

So why this frantic and very public US govt desire to extradite him and bang him up for 60 years? Another 'War Games' scenario or a UFO version of Vannunu?

FWIW - psy-ops is my take...

[paul wright]

I wonder if shoe fetishist Theresa May will follow Cameron's previous support for McKinnon to tried in Britain
If times weren't fantasy it would be hard to believe this woman is Home Secretary

HACKER GARY MCKINNON TO BE TRIED IN BRITAIN

Sunday May 16,2010, By Daily Express reporter

SCOTS computer hacker Gary McKinnon is set to avoid extradition and be tried in Britain, the Scottish Sunday Express can reveal.

The 43-year-old’s family expects confirmation from the new Government within days that the decision to send Gary to the USA has been overturned.

Mr McKinnon, who has Asperger’s syndrome, has been accused of causing widespread damage by hacking into Pentagon and Nasa computers in 2001 and 2002. American officials have insisted the “cyber terrorist” should be extradited to the US where he could face up to 60 years in prison.

His family and supporters have spent years fighting the extradition order, although previous Labour ministers refused to block the US bid.

But the campaign won heavyweight backing from the Tories and the Lib Dems, with Prime Minister David Cameron and Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg both previously voicing concern.

Foreign Secretary William Hague last week promised a fresh look at the extradition arrangements.

Mr McKinnon’s lawyer, Karen Todner, yesterday lobbied the new Home Secretary Theresa May and urged her to overrule her predecessor.

She said: “We hope the new Liberal Conservative Government will act upon their previous statements that it would be unjust to extradite Mr McKinnon.”

Last night, a source close to the case said “things are looking positive” for the Scot, and added: “It’s looking more likely Gary will face the courts in the UK rather than be sent to the USA.

“I suspect the decision will be made over the next few days.”

Janis Sharp, the Glasgow-born hacker’s mother, confirmed she is expecting to hear from the ministers soon.
She said: “We should know for certain by the end of the week. It’s certainly looking better.

“Our new Prime Minister and his deputy have supported Gary in the past. Surely they don’t want to lose face so soon after taking the office and go back on their words?”

But she admitted her son has struggled to understand why the announcement was taking so long, and added: “Gary thought it would be over the moment the new coalition Government was formed.

“He is more stressed now than ever because of the delay. It is really affecting him badly.

“He’s scared, and he’s locked himself in the house and refuses to answer his phone.

“Gary is very intelligent, but he doesn’t function the way most of us do.

“But we are carefully optimistic. It’s been a long and dark fight, but there’s finally some light at the end of the tunnel.”

Mr McKinnon had been due to be extradited by the end of January after the former Home Secretary, Alan Johnson, ruled he should go despite medical advice from the Scot’s psychiatrist.

However, a High Court judge agreed to review the decision and said the psychiatrist’s evidence that the hacker was suicidal constituted grounds under Human Rights law to turn down the extradition.

Ms Sharp, who now lives in Hertfordshire, has been so incensed by her son’s treatment that she stood against Jack Straw in the General Election.

He was Foreign Secretary when the extradition treaty was signed.

[Thermate911]

Excellent news (sort of), item8 and well worth posting as many times as you see fit, IMO ;-)

The question still remains right from the beginning, though: "Why the fuss, bearing in mind the computers were wide open anyway?"

Why has Gary been persecuted for a teenage 'prank' that US film makers had already covered so lightheartedly in 'War Games'?

This still stinks to high heaven.

[Moon-in-Taurus]

I wish I knew how to tell them in Westminster how much this case blights the lives of all the British
eccentrics who have been keeping their ears to the ground I imagine.
It casts an old grey shroud of dread to dare speak ever knowingly of all the blasted shame
that grits your teeth here

lying on the dark shores of the nation
amid the flotsam failing frequently to keep abreast
of the turning tide
and great evil thing in the pit of a split and smashed heart somewhere
beneath the ocean of possibility
those shuffled and spat their shame black and red upon us in welts. How to speak,

How to speak gets so peculiarly hard when the hard men are so cold
it turns your blood turgid.
The ice expands.
The walls crack.

[paul wright]

In seeking to expose UFO and ET cover-ups, and the free energy fields, Gary should deserve an award for social services delivered, and certainly no trial anywhere
I hope this exceptionally corrupt new government keeps to its previous words

[TonyGosling]

Gary should be elevated to the House of Lords.
For services to open mindedness.

As the Lib Con Alliance are just about to appoint 200 new life peers one more will hardly be noticed.

[Moon-in-Taurus]

He's clearly just the sort we need there.

[xmasdale]

As one who has tried to support Gary and his mum, I am still baffled by the extraordinary determination of the US and UK authorities to extradite him to a country in which he committed no crime. It suggests fear of exposure of secrets he stumbled on: off planet personnel, UFO information, suppressed sources of energy, who knows what? The fuss suggests he got access to something the US authorities are terrified of being made public.

[Thermate911]

The fuss suggests he got access to something the US authorities are terrified of being made public.

He's had plenty of opportunities to blow 'anything found' wide open but what he has already claimed to have found is more than sufficient to precipitate a global paradigm shift, innit?

Maybe Bramley, Alford et al aren't so wide of the mark...?

[TonyGosling]

No he didn't find anything.
It was entrapment and disinformation.
This is a 'test case' to see if the US evil authorities can get away with it isn't it?

[Moon-in-Taurus]

Gary McKinnon is to be saved from the threat of immediate extradition as early as today.
Home Secretary Theresa May believes a court case to send the vulnerable hacker to the U.S. - due to begin in a few days - should be halted.
Her intervention gives Gary - who is backed by the Daily Mail's Affront to British Justice campaign - a vital new chance to plead the case for being dealt with in the UK.
Without it, the Asperger's sufferer would have been extradited within weeks to a foreign jail, where it is feared he would be almost certain to take his own life.
Gary faces up to 60 years imprisonment on charges of hacking into U.S. military computers.
Psychiatrists have warned that the 44-year-old - who was looking for evidence of 'little green men' - will kill himself if sent to America under the 'lopsided' Extradition Act 2003.
A succession of Labour home secretaries had abandoned Gary to his fate despite the desperate warnings about the state of his mental health.
But after the Mail's vigorous campaign, which was launched ten months ago and is supported by civil liberties groups, autism charities, celebrities and scores of MPs, Mrs May agreed his case should be adjourned.
She will now reconsider the medical case for keeping Gary here, where he has agreed to be tried for his 'crimes'.
This reflects a request made by Gary's legal team last week for the new Government to look at the case afresh.
Liberal Democrat leader and Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg had been scathing about Labour's decision to hang Gary out to dry.

Stopping the extradition of Gary McKinnon to the U.S. may not be within the Government's power, Nick Clegg suggested yesterday.

The comment - his first intervention in the case since becoming Deputy Prime Minister - surprised supporters of the 44-year-old computer hacker because it was completely at odds with Mr Clegg's previously stated position.

In opposition Mr Clegg, backed by independent legal advice, had argued fiercely that ministers could use human rights grounds to halt Gary's extradition to the States, where he faces up to 60 years behind bars.

Last night campaigners said that, with trust in politicians at an all-time low, it was vital for Mr Clegg to keep his word.

Extraordinary - every time an official looks at this case, they are turned irrational

[TonyGosling]

Of course they could stop this. Bilderberger Ken Carke could sort it with a swish of his pen.
Just like George Papandreo could have sorted the Greek crisis and gone back to a Greek government run Drachma.
Only trouble is they are both Bilderberg Mafia stooges and these moments had been forseen.
Are they using dear old unaware Nick Clegg as a sort of psyop errand boy to roll out ideas that might taint Cameron? Cleggy certainly doesn't look like a happy man at the moment. Welcome to the New (fragile) World Order Nick.
I notice Cleggy's wife was a central plank in the European Movement campaigning in the 1970s for us to join the EEC. If he starts to think for himself she can turn the screw.

[TonyGosling]

"There were no lines of defence"
Surely much of this is psyop and disinfo Gary has been allowed to hack.

SPACE FLEET EXISTS?

The possibility of an "off planet" space fleet was given even more credence recently when a young Scottish hacker by the name of Gary McKinnon recently broke into the Pentagon's computers and reputedly came up the names of some of our "off-world" U.S. space fleet (identified under the abbreviation: USSS), two specific space ships, (the USSS LeMay and the USSS Hillenkoetter), and the names of the various crews, their ranks, and transfer assignments between various "off Earth" space ships.

This computer security breach so enraged the brass at the Pentagon that the U.S. Government is currently seeking to extradite McKinnon from the U.K. to face charges of computer hacking with a punishment of LIFE IN PRISON! Certainly this is one way to permanently silence an embarrassing discoverer of forbidden information.

He may have hacked disinfo, but disinfo for a purpose....

"Dunderheads", well speaking of which Nick Clegg, if the Daily Mail is to be believed for an instant (and no longer) seems to have been invited to stare into the Pit with his leashed party leader, and appears to have instantaneously changed his opinion on this matter
Perhaps it'll turn out alright

"Peace In Our Time", right?

Have we all given up dot-joining around here, or what?

If this is disinfo, it joins an enormously long line of such, spreading right back to Sumer.

Was Chuck Yaeger part of this disinfo? And how about Harbinson's bizarre claims? Then there's the whole Atlantis/Illuminati schtick - all disinfo?

Obama refuses to halt Gary McKinnon extradition
http://rt.com/usa/news/obama-mckinnon-extradition-usa/

“If, as the President says, he will be ‘respectful’ of our legal process, then he should be happy for Gary to be dealt with here in the UK,” commented Shami Chakrabarti, director of Liberty, a group supporting McKinnon. “If our Government seeks to honor the words of both Coalition partners in opposition, it will decide that Gary’s condition warrants halting this farcical extradition immediately, so that justice and compassion can be dispensed at home.”
