Hacker Gary McKinnon Interviewed
G0rAk writes "The BBC World Service has a half hour audio interview with British hacker Gary McKinnon. As recently reported on/. and BBC News, Gary was arrested and freed on bail pending extradition proceedings to the U.S. There, he faces charges of gaining unauthorised access and causing criminal damage to military computers in his search for evidence of UFO coverups and anti-gravity technology of extra-terrestrial origin. In a very candid interview, Gary re-affirms that he had no malicious intent, was amazed at the ease with which he penetrated the networks, explains in detail what evidence of UFO coverups he saw, describes a personal journey through hell as he became obsessed with the project and how very scared he is that he could be facing up to seventy years in a Virginian jail. A bit of a nut, perhaps. But a fascinating listen that helps a lot in making that judgment. The Interview can be listened to with RealPlayer from 11:32 GMT (06:32 EST) on Saturday until the same time next week."

Also remember he was living in the a house linked to the [failed] bombers that tried to blow up London the day before - he was being watched.
The is no smoke without fire.
The guy jumped the ticket barriers, ran from the police, and then tried to board the train.
Except the Police were Plain Clothes men and the million dollar question is whether they identified themselves.Maybe the chap was just running away from some nutters with a gun?

The hallucinogenic effects of marijuana are extremely small. In order to actually get a reasonable level of hallucination, you'd have to smoke so much weed that you'd probably pass out from smoke inhalation long before enough of the chemical made it's way into your system.
I dunno what you were smoking in college, but it wasn't pure marijuana.
The police who killed him shot him 5 times in the head and torso AFTER they had pinned him to the ground. How in the hell is shooting him in that situation necessary?
You see? You see? Your stupid minds! Stupid! Stupid!
It was none of those things.
I certainly wasn't trying to be funny, this guy was shot in cold blood.
I am ashamed to be British at the moment, I thought we believed in innocent until proven guilty.
This guys' only crime was to shit himself and run when a group of plain clothed men shouting stuff in a foreign language and chasing him with guns.
In that situation I too would run, would you?
