David vs Goliath in a nutshell:
Government: ‘he stole [newspeak for copied] information but we can’t tell you what it is, so we took it off his lawyers and put it in a safe. We’ll all refer to it as the docs in the safe.’
Judiciary: ‘oh, ok, np!’
Defence Department Whistleblower: ‘Those docs showed what I believed to be leadership misconduct. I have no defence now; I plead guilty.’
6 months later…
Government: ‘Please jail him with non-parole period’
Judiciary: ‘lemme think about this for another week 🤔’

What I don’t understand is how the case wasn’t thrown out by the justice when he wasn’t allowed to see the docs that were then put in the safe. THIS IS NOT A FAIR TRIAL. The defendent is prevented from presenting potentially exculpatory evidence, even to a closed court!

Yep, totally evil authoritarianism. No excuses, this is a clear act of tyranny.
