SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Jan 25 – When jury selection
was completed for the retrial
of accused CIA Vault 7 leaker
Joshua Schulte, U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Jesse M. Furman told the
jurors, Do not read or say
anything about the case. Inner
City Press was there, and live
tweeted here.

On July 25 after
conviction Schulte sent his
own letter to Judge Furman
that "we intend to seek
immediate sentencing on the
counts of conviction" and that
he wants "once-weekly SCIF
days as the CP case has
classified forensic evidence -
home computers and servers
that were 'classified.'"
Inner City Press
live tweeted Schulte's July 26
proceeding, here
and below.
On January 19,
2024 Schulte's counsel
described five years of
torture in the MDC (and MCC),
and requested a sentence of
108 months - not the 360
months Probation recommends,
using the terrorism
enhancement.
On January 25,
the US asked for life
imprisonment, attaching a
letter from CIA Deputy
Director David S. Cohen (while
redacting more), and beginning
"Joshua Adam Schulte stand
convicted of some of the most
heinous, brazen violations of
the Espionage Act in American
history."
