Joshua Schulte, suspected CIA leaker, claims he's being tortured awaiting trial

Joshua Schulte, a former CIA computer engineer suspected of leaking classified hacking tools to WikiLeaks, said he is being subjected to “torture” while awaiting trial for espionage.

Mr. Schulte, 30, said he is being inexplicably held in solitary confinement and denied access to his medication, writing materials, legal documents and lawyer, according to a letter addressed to U.S. District Judge Paul Crotty filed in Manhattan federal court Monday.

“My fellow slaves constantly scream, pound and claw at their cages attempting to get attention for basic needs to be fulfilled. I count myself lucky to be able to eat,” he wrote from Manhattan’s Metropolitan Correctional Center.

“No human being should ever have to experience this torture,” the former CIA coder continued. “Otto Warmbier received better treatment and more justice in North Korea than I have received in America. Terrorists receive better treatment in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba — I have seen the footage myself.”

Make him listen to recordings of Obama or Hillary speeches. He'll talk then by God. And then he will understand real torture.

he’s lucky he wasn’t just summarily hung ... you know, like how George Washington used to handle traitors and spies like this back in the day ...

Pinging because of threads you both posted months back, seems the accused CIA leaker arrested under the Espionage Act, Joshua Schulte doesn’t like his living conditions.

Undoubtedly true. when the jailer becomes the executioner justice is abandoned.

I’d say he’s been secured. For now, anyway.

An accused leaker is denied access to communication in jail?

Shrug.

An accused murderer is denied access to weapons in jail, too.

Well, he managed to get THAT little diatribe out to the public.

Could be worse...he could be forced to listen to Barry Manalow tapes all day.
