Julian Assange Released After 14 Years, Future Uncertain

Assange's release followed a plea deal with the U.S. Justice Department, but his next steps remain unclear as he returns to Australia.

Julian Assange spent five years in a British prison and seven years in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London.
He pleaded guilty to obtaining and publishing U.S. military secrets, avoiding extradition to the U.S.
Assange's wife, Stella, urges journalists to use FOI requests to uncover details of his prosecution.
The plea deal requires Assange to destroy any unpublished U.S. documents in his possession.
Supporters hope for a presidential pardon to fully exonerate Assange.
