    Asperger’s syndrome...

    "Lauri Love, the British student accused of hacking into American government websites, would be at high risk of killing himself if extradited to the US, the high court has heard.

    Love, who lives in Suffolk and has Asperger’s syndrome and severe depression, should be tried in Britain for his alleged offences, his counsel, Edward Fitzgerald QC, told the court.

    Opening an appeal against an earlier decision that Love should be tried in the US, Fitzgerald said: “There’s a very real risk that he would commit suicide [if extradited]. There’s a virtual certainty that his condition would deteriorate.”

    Love, 32, who holds joint British and Finnish nationality and is studying electrical engineering, also suffers from eczema and asthma. “All these conditions would be exacerbated by the stress of removal,” Fitzgerald told the lord chief justice, Lord Burnett of Maldon, and Mr Justice Ouseley, who were hearing the case."

      For a person of their undoubted ability, the ass-burgers stuff could easily be faked and "diagnosed" before embarking on a life of chicanery and any old ne'er-do-well shouldn't be allowed to hide behind it. Load him up with 4 blue inhalers and a 10*100ml tubs of E45 and ship him out.
      The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't exist

          As someone with Asthma and a niggling urge to commit hacking crimes, I'm watching this case with interest.

            (*) and not forgetting also 10 * 1000ml tubs of KY for him in jail.
