英国皇家检察院已决定将不会起诉自我供认美国宇航局黑客加里麦金农在英国,击败他接近引渡到美国。
  麦金农的诊断与阿斯伯格综合症的条件对自闭症谱,没有考虑到决定,皇家检控署( CPS )的发言人告诉silicon.com姐妹网站ZDNet UK访问。
  美国当局去年赢得了引渡麦金农罪名打入97个军事和美国宇航局的电脑。去年12月,麦金农的律师团致函多糖,其中他供认罪行第2款下计算机滥用法,企图被起诉在英国而不是美国。
  McKinnon面临长达70年的最高安全监狱如果被定罪,黑客收费根据美国法律。在一份声明中就其决定,郊野公园段的罪行麦金农说,承认在他的供词,包括未经授权的访问的计算机系统,不一样严重的指控美国检察官对他。
  艾莉森桑德斯的负责有组织犯罪的郊野公园段司说: “我们确定了9个场合麦金农先生已经承认活动将达到所订的罪行,第2款的计算机滥用法(未经授权的访问意图) 。
  “虽然有足够的证据来起诉他麦金农对这些罪行的证据,我们不接近反映了犯罪指控的是美国当局。 ”
  桑德斯在决定麦金农在咨询Keir Starmer ,总检察长,在郊野公园段发言人说。
  美国检察官指控说,麦金农是出于政治动机的黑客攻击美国陆军,海军,空军以及美国航空航天局的系统在2001年。他们还声称,他造成七十点〇 〇万美元美元的损失,删除的文件,而且他的功能残疾的军舰。
  麦金农从未否认进入系统,但他并不否认造成任何损害。他说,他一直在寻找证据的飞碟。
  在郊野公园段无法获得的证据由美国当局可能会允许它进行更严重的指控,麦金农,他的律师克伦Todner接受ZDNet UK访问时。
  “郊野公园段的原因,没有证据表明美国的引渡条约,并没有提供任何证据证明, ” Todner说。 “该郊野公园段可能要见的证据,但它没有这样做。 ”
  在郊野公园段一名发言人证实说,该部还没有要求见的任何证据。美国检察官不需要任何的表面证据,以确保引渡英国公民,根据美国/英国引渡条约, 2003年。

  加里麦金农是不能对此事发表评论时的书面答复。据Todner ,他仍然希望高等法院审查可能会救他。
 
 以下是全文:
       The Crown Prosecution Service has decided it will not prosecute self-confessed Nasa hacker Gary McKinnon in the UK, edging him closer to extradition to the US.
  McKinnon's diagnosis with Asperger's Syndrome, a condition on the autistic spectrum, had not been taken into account in the decision, a Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) spokesperson told silicon.com sister site ZDNet UK on Thursday.
  US authorities last year won the extradition of McKinnon to face charges of breaking into 97 military and Nasa computers. In December, McKinnon's legal team sent a letter to the CPS in which he confessed to offences under section 2 of the Computer Misuse Act, in an attempt to be prosecuted in the UK rather than the US.
  McKinnon faces up to 70 years in a maximum security prison if convicted of hacking charges under US law. In a statement regarding its decision, the CPS said the offences McKinnon admitted to in his confession, including the unauthorised access of a computer system, are not as serious as the charges US prosecutors have levelled against him.
  Alison Saunders, the head of the CPS organised crime division, said: "We identified nine occasions where Mr McKinnon has admitted to activity which would amount to an offence under Section 2 of the Computer Misuse Act (unauthorised access with intent).
  "Although there is sufficient evidence to prosecute Mr McKinnon for these offences, the evidence we have does not come near to reflecting the criminality that is alleged by the American authorities."
  Saunders made the decision on McKinnon in consultation with Keir Starmer, the director of public prosecutions, the CPS spokesperson said.
  US prosecutors allege that McKinnon was politically motivated in his hacking attack on US army, navy, airforce and Nasa systems in 2001. They also allege that he caused $700,000 worth of damage by deleting files, and that he disabled the function of a warship.
  McKinnon has never denied accessing the systems but he does deny causing any damage. He claims to have been searching for evidence of UFOs.
  The CPS does not have access to the evidence held by US authorities that could allow it to make more serious charges against McKinnon, his solicitor Karen Todner told ZDNet UK on Thursday.
  "The reason the CPS doesn't have the evidence is that the US, under the extradition treaty, does not have to provide any evidence," Todner said. "The CPS could have asked to see the evidence but it didn't do that."
  The CPS spokesperson confirmed that the department had not asked to see any evidence. US prosecutors are not required to show any prima facie evidence to secure the extradition of a UK citizen, under the terms of the US/UK Extradition Treaty, 2003.
  The service's spokesperson said: "The harm occurred in the US, affecting infrastructure in the US, the witnesses are located in the US, the bulk of the evidence is in the US, and the task of gathering evidence from the US is considerable. US prosecutors were able to frame charges reflecting the extent of Mr McKinnon's criminality."
  Todner said the next step would be a High Court review of home secretary Jacqui Smith's decision to turn down McKinnon's appeal against extradition last year. A date has not yet been set for the review, as it hinged on the CPS decision. Todner expects it to be scheduled in April.
  Gary McKinnon was not available for comment at the time of writing. According to Todner, he was still hopeful the High Court review might save him.
