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.’

Government: ‘Please jail him with non-parole period’
Judiciary: ‘lemme think about this for another week 🤔’
