Law change could save McKinnon

摘要

The House of Lords is debating a change in the law that could save hacker Gary McKinnon from extradition to the US.rnThe change to the Policing and Crime Bill would let judges stop an extradition if most of the crime was committed in the UK and it would serve justice to have the trial here.rnHome secretary Alan Johnson said earlier he had "stopped the clock" on McKinnon's extradition so that he could consider new medical evidence. McKinnon suffers from As-perger's syndrome and has had recurrent bouts of depression since his initial arrest in 2002.
