Janis Sharp , Gary's mum wrote this in September
My son has now been under arrest for longer than any British citizen ever has. He hasn't raped anyone, he hasn't murdered anyone, so can't understand how this can be happening to him, as no matter how much anyone may choose to exaggerate his crime, the fact is that his crime was tapping on a keyboard in his bedroom in north London in search of information on aliens from outer space.

Gary rarely ever leaves his home as he is traumatised to the core. A boy who cycled, swam, composed music and sang, now sits in the dark with his cats and never wants to see or speak to anyone.

He has no life, and is broken, like a wounded animal with no outlet and no hope, seeing only the dark side and the cruelty that exists in the world. My only child has lost 10 years of his youth and has aged and died before my eyes.

Breaking News

Home Secretary Theresa May says there is no doubt Mr McKinnon is seriously ill. She says she has carefully examined the medical evidence and taken legal advice and has concluded that his extradition would give such a high risk that he would end his life that it restricts his human rights.

She did also say that he could possibly be tried here though, so he's not home free by any means.

OK, but at least he's not being handed over to the torturers, who've extended the jail terms for offences like McKinnon's (probably in preparation for getting their greasy mits on him). That's something. And there are people looking out for him over here.

Yes. Certainly better here than who-knows-what stateside.

Here is a big middle digit to the people who wanted him "fried"

In 2002 when announcing the indictment the District Attorney /American prosecutor on the case said he'd like to see McKInnon 'Fry'.

This is a very significant decision for Gary McKinnon. But here's the really, really, interesting part. The home secretary has human rights powers to block extradition and the independent review for the government said ministers should lose those powers.

Aye, I notice there's still plenty of wingnut comments even from Brits on the BBC.
I doubt they've looked into the history of the case, they also no doubt don't give a shit either.

The yanks probably more than anything else want to find out what the guy actually did see...
