Melzer was asked about that. He responded: "Mr. Assange was about as free to leave as someone sitting on a rubber boat in a shark pool." - https://twitter.com/NilsMelzer/status/1134400849097220102

You're plastering this thread with the same talking points. People are responding to you. Were you going to address any of the responses, or just keep plastering?

Generally people accused of serious crimes are not as free as the rest of us.
He has always been free to face his accusers.

BS. They're accusing him under a law that would not allow him to present any motive for what he did. Not a fair trial by most countries' standards.

The charges he will be facing on the US are for spionage (under patriot act) not rape.

Please don’t do that here. We’re not talking about rape. We’re talking about the espionage accusations.

Not really. It was the arrest warrant for the rape charges in Sweden that kept him confined in the Ecuadorian embassy.

I thought the news was about Sweden dropping the case of rape.

I've done my reading, nowhere it was mentioned that it wasn't about the allegations of rape.
BTW, the comments guidelines state
