Gary McKinnon may be not be extradited to the USA. Talha Ahsan's case is hardly being mentioned. He faces pre-trial solitary confinement and a sentence in a Supermax prison unable to see his family again.

Given the secondary health problems associated with aspergers, people should write to their MPs , Amnesty International and other Human Rights organisations to ensure Talha Ahsan is not extradited.

  • There was an Anonomous hacker who pleaded Asperger's - he went to prison.

    There was that guy that left malicious posts on the facebook pages of dead kids who also pleaded Asperger's - he also went to prison.

    Asperger's doesn't remove one's sense of right and wrong - it is not an excuse for doing wrong, and it's not a good reason for someone to stay out of prison.

    (and neither is having a mental health condition)

    Nothing here suggests to me that this person should get any leniency what-so-ever.

    Though as has already been said, more information would be required before making that judgement call.
