Edward Snowden Falsely Claims Government Accused Him of Treason
During a live questions-and-answers session on Monday, Edward Snowden falsely claimed "the government" openly declared him of treason. Snowden, who fled Hawaii for Hong Kong after leaking documents about National Security Administration surveillance programs, said the accusation "destroyed any possibility of a fair trial at home."
More about Privacy, , , , and NsaFirst, the US Government, just as they did with other whistleblowers, immediately and predictably destroyed any possibility of a fair trial at home, openly declaring me guilty of treason and that the disclosure of secret, criminal, and even unconstitutional acts is an unforgivable crime. That's not justice, and it would be foolish to volunteer yourself to it if you can do more good outside of prison than in it.
