Lee spent 9 months in solitary confinement and lost significant salary and retirement benefits.
This makes it a moral requirement that former Defense Secretary William Perry face a similar period of confinement and similar loss of benefits. Perry has acknowledged downloading top secrets to his home computer and leaving codeword material where his family, housekeepers, and other visitors could have found and copied it.
For once, I am even harsher than Tim, or at least what Tim wrote. FBI and other agents admitted to making "misleading" statements in their arguments to keep Mr Lee in jail. Every goverment employee involved in "misleading" statements, pressure on Lee's family and friends, and supression of exculpatory evidence should be immediately jailed and held in solitary confinement for some multiple of the time Lee was held. Those who would monitor and control our behaviour should be held to higher standards than those they would control. -- Steve Furlong, Computer Condottiere Have GNU, will travel 518-374-4720 sfurlong@acmenet.net
