LITERARY SDNY,
June 21 – The day after
Juneteenth (observed) the
Joshua Schulte trial
continued. On the stand was
Patrick Leedom of Microsoft,
but before that the MITRE
group, they worked with the
FBI to investigate who leaked
Vault 7.
On direct Leedom
said Schulte was quickly
suspect number 1, with strange
logs in and the deletion of
log files.
When, with
an hour left in the trial day,
Schulte got his chance to
cross examine, he asked Leedom
who paid for his hotel and
taxis, and if there weren't
others more qualified that him
to investigate cyber tools.
These
triggered objections, mostly
sustained. Schulte soldiered
on, saying he might have to
bring in a confidential
document for the cross, which
would only resume Friday. No
explanation of the two days
off was given.
Kurt
Wheelock had heard other
judges talking about an
upcoming Judicial Conference.
And Judge Furman now said the
trial would likely run to or
past July 10. The alternate
juror who needed to fly to
Oregon for a dress-fitting
could be let go, he said. But
what about another, who wanted
or needed July 5?
Schulte was led
out, and then to the MDC. Kurt
Wheelock went to cover two
other trials wheeled out in
the courthouse, one drugs, the
other fake loans for cars. The
wheels of justice turned
slowly. More on Patreon here.
