Stop the Prosecution of Drone Whistleblower Daniel Hale

 WHISPeR - Whistleblower & Source Protection Program

SIGN THE PETITION

Stop the selective and vindictive prosecution of Daniel Hale and bring an end to the abuse of the Espionage Act to silence whistleblowers and other truth tellers.

Why is this important?

Daniel is being punished because he dared speak the truth. He has been an outspoken peace and human rights activist, attempting to warn the public about the abuses and dangers of unchecked drone warfare. Hale is a whistleblower who has enriched the public’s knowledge about matters of grave civic concern. It is unconscionable to use a law supposedly aimed at actual spies and saboteurs, against individuals who act in good faith to bring government misconduct to the attention of the public.
 

 

In May 2019, drone whistleblower Daniel Everette Hale was arrested and indicted on allegations that he disclosed classified documents about the U.S. military’s assassination program, believed to have been the source material for a series in The Intercept called “The Drone Papers”. His trial, previously scheduled for June 22nd, 2020, was postponed due to COVID-19 closures, and is currently scheduled for April 5, 2021 in the Eastern District of Virginia.
