             WHAT

   Turns out Assange was imprisoned some time ago.

   Oh I'm behind on that.  He was arrested one year ago, correct?  So far
   he's served one year in jail -- and in the event he is sentenced to
   jail time, I imagine that one year will be counted toward his sentence
   (as it was for Chelsea Manning).
   Am I understanding that you feel it is an outrage to hold Assange in UK
   jail to await a trial that has been actively delayed *at his own
   request* by appealing extradition?  The only reason he hasn't been
   tried in court faster than this is due to his extraordinary (and
   clearly illegal) efforts to avoid being tried.  How is that the court's
   fault or responsibility?
