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.”

Absolutely, a big attitude adjustment.

I don’t know much about the their case on the espionage charges but it looks like they’ve got him dead bang on the child porn.

He probably won’t get the 135 years but he’ll be gone a very long time.

The child porn charges will ‘easily’ stick....the guy was knee deep in every respect of the diabolical culture he was a part of that preys on children. He's a perverted creep with an entitlement attitude that the prisoners will soon turn around if he gets out of solitude....
