Proceeding contribution from Rob Marris (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 1 December 2009. It occurred during Urgent question on Gary McKinnon (Extradition).
Gary McKinnon (Extradition)
This is the sad case of a sad middle-aged man who is alleged to have deleted part of American security computer systems. That has led both Opposition Front-Bench spokespersons today to state in terms that anyone with Asperger's should never be extradited or tried. Does my right hon. Friend agree that that approach is an insult to people with Asperger's, who have a range of responsibilities and capabilities including, in some cases, criminal responsibility and criminal capability?
