Reality’s legal team fights back
Dear Al,
Since her arrest in June, Reality has faced an all-out assault from a politically motivated Department of Justice determined to make an example out of her. They want to deny her a fair trial, and force her to serve jail time before she’s ever convicted, in order to scare off any future whistleblowers from taking courageous action to hold power accountable.
But Reality’s defense team is fighting back. In the last few weeks, they’ve been tearing apart the prosecution’s case, finding serious issues with all of their evidence and fighting for Reality to get a fair trial.
New bond hearing
Reality’s lawyers successfully argued for a new bond hearing, which was set for this Friday, September 29th. They argued that the prosecution’s reasons for holding her in jail before trial were exaggerated, misrepresented or just flat-out wrong.
We believe the prosecution acted in bad faith when they argued for Reality’s pre-trial detention. We believe the prosecution’s real agenda was always to force Reality to serve time for her alleged crime without having to actually convict her, as a means of making an example out of her and coercing her into a plea bargain.
We’re calling on the judge to grant Reality bail in her hearing on Friday, so that she can have the right guaranteed to all Americans to prepare for her trial in March.

Coerced confession
Reality’s defense team filed a motion on August 30th to suppress evidence from what the FBI described as a “voluntary confession”, but which Reality claims was coercive and inadmissible.
The FBI agents who questioned Reality didn’t notify her of her Miranda rights. They merely said she was “going” to be arrested, and said they had a search warrant for her person (although they never searched her). She was never notified she had the right to have a lawyer present, or that she was free not to cooperate with the questioning.
Reality’s defense team is seeking to have her statements during that questioning, and any evidence obtained because of that questioning, suppressed during the trial.
We’re still awaiting the judge’s decision, but the prosecution is so worried that they entered the transcript into the public record just in case the ruling doesn’t go their way.
Help keep Reality’s defense going!
These latest moves by Reality’s defense team are just the beginning. They’re determined to fight this case all the way to the end, and prove Reality is innocent of her charges under the Espionage Act.
The start date for Reality’s trial was extended to March 1st, 2018. Reality’s prosecution has unlimited resources at their disposal, but Reality only has her supporters to rely on. Please donate to her legal defense team today so we can get justice for Reality and fight back against Trump’s war on whistleblowers.
