I posted this on an older thread;
I think there is more here than meets the eye. Let’s say someone had some type of derogatory information they wanted to release to the press but no one knows who you are so no one would take you as credible or believable. So, you steal some info from the military and leak it as she did, you get caught, admit that you did it, get nationwide notoriety. Now all of a sudden you are in the spotlight and everyone is listening. That is probably why bail is/was denied so she could not get access to that thumb drive. As I said, more here than meets the eye.
She talked of OBL as being a Christ like figure. She wanted to go to Pakistan
That’s enough
In her case, I think she was mostly a normal person up until 11-9 (the day after the election), and then she lost her prospective on life and responsibilities. I think what the AF and NSA will prove in court is that all of the documents (plural) that she stole...were after 11-9. In this case, with the plural situation...it’s not 10 years any longer...but on up to 30 years and beyond in prison time.
Other than producing the thumb-drive and just agreeing to a complete confession....that’s about the only deal she could make and I doubt if the prosecution will let her walk with less than 20 years of prison. If I were the prosecution, I’d even add one stipulation onto the deal...no access to any computers or internet while in prison.
I think her parents are now sitting there and wondering where all this goofball activity came from that the prosecution brought up on Friday. It’s like a split personality. Maybe she’s bi-polar?
