This judge in Assange’s extradition hearing is condemning wikileaks saying what they did is not freedom of speech, but rather justification to extradite Assange to the US.
And holy fuck, the judge is ending it with her not being convinced that the US system would prevent Assange from committing suicide in US prison.
“There’s a good chance we could have him [Assange] walking among us this week.”

This is also the Rochester Police - dreadful mishandling of an altered mental status call - which led to their current crisis team, which was unavailable (and they didn't wait for in a low threat situation as they could have) for this 9 y/o!

In both cases there is a failure to use good judgement, make a valid threat assessment, to match in force to situation, failure to choose to wait for safer and appropriate staff/conditions and to use their time wisely. They also treat 'perp' as more object than human.

Last night TPD arrested and charged two known organizers, @DailyTacoma and our own @ohdamn_jam.
So many people acted quickly, and we were able to make sure they both made bail.
You can read @ohdamn_jam's account of what happened here
If you remember, back in August we were made aware that Pierce County diverted COVID funds to monitor us. We know for sure they monitored and reported on this account and anyone associated with it, such as @DailyTacoma
Side note: They were not read their rights until munch later.

Last night, I was arrested by TPD. TPD wanted us to move a block away so they could "conduct an independent investigation." Shortly after questioning the legitimacy of the investigation, at least 15 police approached & arrested me as I was recording the arrest of @DailyTacoma.

They read us our rights well after I did NOT consent to searches (and was subsequently searched right after)

Our rights were not read until we were in the booking and processing area.
