Judging Freedom

Smollett's Guilty Verdict & Assange's U.S. Extradition

7 min • 11 december 2021

Today on Judging Freedom, Judge Andrew Napolitano has opinions on two trending headlines: Jussie Smollett's guilty verdict and Julian Assange's U.S. Extradition.

Jussie Smollett’s conviction Thursday for lying to police about a racist, homophobic attack came nearly three years after his report of a horrifying hate crime quickly became part of a polarized political landscape, with people — including the president of the United States — weighing in from all over. The Judge breaks it all down.

A British appellate court opened the door Friday for Julian Assange to be extradited to the United States on spying charges by overturning a lower court decision that the WikiLeaks founder’s mental health was too fragile to withstand incarceration in America. The Judge details why that's the wrong move.
