John Reinstein will also be speaking at #WikiLeaks panel.
-
Wizner: Most leaks on torture, illegal spying, drone attacks are not prosecuted because they come from administration in power. #WikiLeaks
-
Wizner: Until Obama took office, there had been 3 prosecutions under Espionage Act. Already, Obama has indicted 6 individuals. #WikiLeaks
-
Wizner: Obama admin has made very clear in words/actions that it does not distinguish from spies and patriotic whistleblowers. #WikiLeaks
-
Wizner: Obama adminstration has been quite clear that it's been investigating #WikiLeaks with an eye toward criminal prosecution. #HOPE9
-
Wizner: Prosecution of #WikiLeaks or Julian #Assange would be a major threat to investigative journalism, but not to leaks. #HOPE9
-
Wizner: Publishers of leaked information (emphatically #WikiLeaks) should never be prosecuted for the publication of truthful information.
-
Wizner: Whistleblower's action in disclosing and public's interest in knowing outweighs government's need for secrecy. #WikiLeaks #HOPE9

john reinstein and catherine crump have worked tirelessly on my laptop seizure case since early 2011 | #HOPE9 #WikiLeaks
-
Reinstein: Grand Jury consists between 16-20 people. Don't sit for single case, sit for 18 mos which can be extended. #WikiLeaks #HOPE9
-
Reinstein: #WikiLeaks grand jury sits in northern grand jury - not by accent; court dealt with lots of national security cases. #HOPE9
-
Reinstein: You can't bring a lawyer into the Grand Jury if you are subpoenaed to testify. #WikiLeaks #HOPE9

-
Reinstein: Government won't admit #WikiLeaks Grand Jury, but people have been subpoenaed for it. #HOPE9
