This is simply amazing news in the McKinnon case. It seems that Secretary Theresa May was under enormous pressure for her decision not to allow the extradition. Lets hope she doesn't fold on this again!
Gary McKinnon's mother Janis Sharp praises Home Secretary Theresa May for her "incredibly brave decision" in blocking the extradition of her son to the US on human rights grounds. Mr McKinnon is accused by US prosecutors of "the biggest military computer hack of all time", but he claims he was simply looking for evidence of UFOs. Theresa May told MPs there was evidence that the 46-year-old, who suffers from Asperger syndrome, would try to kill himself if forced to stand trial in the US and therefore extraditing him breached his human rights.
