Assistant U.S. Attorney Kellen S. Dwyer accidentally dropped in two references to the sealed charges against Julian Assange in a filing for a separate unsealed case completely unrelated to Wikileaks. The charges against Assange, which are unknown at this time, are under seal according to a report by The Washington Post.
The unintentional disclosure appears to have occurred due to a copy-and-paste mistake, reports both The New York Times and The Guardian. It looks as if the prosecutor copied text from a similar case and neglected to swap out Assange’s name. Read more…

WikiLeaks has replaced Julian Assange as editor-in-chief of WikiLeaks, the organization announced Wednesday. Assange, who will remain on board as publisher, has appointed Kristinn Hrafnsson as the new editor in chief.
