https://www.theguardian.com/media/2011/may/11/us-opens-wikileaks-grand-jury-hearing

of hundreds of thousands of state secrets to WikiLeaks – the start
of the process of deciding whether to prosecute the website and its
founder, Julian Assange, for espionage.
began, behind closed doors, how can you be so sure he was never
