Q. Just to recap, let’s walk through. What happened on April 23, 2016? A. The defendant opened Eraser Portable for the first time. Q. What happened next? A. On April 24, the defendant ordered a SATA adapter and downloaded Tails onto his computer. Q. Just remind us again what Tails is. A. Tails is an operating system that directly connects you into the TOR network. Q. What happened next? A. So, on April 28, 2016, by this time, the defendant had used Eraser Portable to securely delete two folders on the computer — Brutal Kangaroo and ArrayList — and had started the process of deleting five BKP files but did not complete it. Q. What’s the next thing that happened? A. So, on April 30, the defendant downloaded the Darik’s Boot and Nuke program, which is used to securely delete hard drives. Between 10:51 and 10:55 on April 30, there were searches performed, including “how to kill your data dead with these tips and tools” and “wipe” utilities for Samsung and Western Digital hard drives. Q. What happened next? A. From April 30 into May 1, so late on the 30th, the defendant periodically would unlock the screen saver to his virtual machine, indicating he was logged on. Around 3 a.m. on May 1, the defendant performed a search for “how I can verify that a one terabyte file transferred correctly.” In addition, he also searched for ways to hash data. Q. What’s the next thing that happened? A. On May 5, 2016, both drives, the C and the D drive, were reformatted

Hi Don. Hope you’re doing well! In relation to Mr. Assange: Obama/Clinton placed pressure on Sweden, UK and Australia (his home country) to illicitly go after Mr. Assange. It would be real easy and helpful for your dad to suggest that Australia appoint Assange ambassador to DC “That’s a really smart tough guy and the most famous australian you have! ” or something similar. They won’t do it, but it will send the right signals to Australia, UK + Sweden to start following the law and stop bending it to ingratiate themselves with the Clintons. 12/16/16 12:38PM

THE COURT: Well, it sounds like, based on the interview, that he knew what the government was looking at.
MR. LAROCHE: That wasn’t the basis of the interview, your Honor.
MR. KOSS: I think it was either two or three [interviews]. I think it was three occasions. I was there on all three, including one of which where we handed over the telephone and unblocked the password to the phone, which they did not have, and gave that to them. And as I said, I have been in constant contact with the three assistant U.S. attorneys working on this matter literally on a weekly basis for the last 4, 5, 6 months. And any time Mr. Schulte even thought about traveling, I provided them an itinerary. I cleared it with them first and made sure it was okay. On any occasion that they said they might want him close so that he could speak to them, I cancelled the travel and rescheduled it so that we would be available if they needed him at any given time.
September 7, 2017: Protego released
September 13, 2017: Bail hearing
MR. LAROCHE: It does because of the manner in which he committed this crime, your Honor. It makes him more dangerous because he is a highly sophisticated individual when it comes to computers. He buried the child pornography within severals layers of encryption. It makes him more dangerous because he talked regularly in the IRC chats about the distribution and receipt of child pornography. So we do believe that it makes him more dangerous and separates him from —
THE COURT: The IRC chats according to the complaint stops in 2009.
MR. LAROCHE: We don’t believe that they stopped, your Honor.
THE COURT: No record of it.
MR. LAROCHE: It’s simply that we don’t have a record of it.
[snip]
MR. LAROCHE: Well, I believe there still is a danger because it’s not just computers, your Honor, but electronic devices are all over society and easy to procure and this type of defendant having the type of knowledge he has does in terms of accessing things — so he has expertise and not only just generally computers but using things such as wiping tools that would allow him to access certain website and leave no trace of it. Those can be done from not just a computer but from other electronic devices.
But the child pornography itself is located on the defendant’s desktop computer. They can be accessed irrespective of those servers. So if all the government had was this desktop computer, we could recover the child pornography. So I think this idea that numerous people had access to the serves and potentially could have put it there, is simply a red herring. This was on the defendant’s desktop computer. And the location where it was found, this sub-folder within several layers of encryption, there were other personal information of the defendant in that area. There was his bank accounts. I think there was even a resume for the defendant where he was storing this information. And the passwords that were used to get into that location, those passwords were the same passwords the defendant used to access his bank account, to access various other accounts that are related to him. So this idea that he shared them with other people, the government just strongly disagrees.

SMITH: I believe the government has told us that there’s more data in this case than in any other like case that they have prosecuted.
MR. STANSBURY: Let me just clarify that part first. We proposed this just in an abundance of caution given the defendant’s former employer and the fact that — and I meant to flag this before. I apologize now for not. There’s a small body of documents that were found in the defendant’s residence that were taken from his former employer that might implicate some classified issues. We have been in the process of having those reviewed and I think we’re going to be in a position to produce those in the next probably few days. But we wanted to just make sure that we were acting out of an abundance of caution in case any SEPA [sic] issues come about in the case. I don’t expect them too at this point but we wanted to do that out of an abundance of caution.

Separately, since the defendant was released on bail, the Government has obtained evidence that he has been using the Internet. First, the Government has obtained data from the service provider for the defendant’s email account (the “Schulte Email Account”), which shows that the account has regularly been logged into and out of since the defendant was released on bail, most recently on the evening of December 6, 2017. Notably, the IP address used to access the Schulte Email Account is almost always the same IP address associated with the broadband internet account for the defendant’s apartment (the “Broadband Account”)—i.e., the account used by Schulte in the apartment to access the Internet via a Wi-Fi network. Moreover, data from the Broadband Account shows that on November 16, 2017, the Broadband Account was used to access the “TOR” network, that is, a network that allows for anonymous communications on the Internet via a worldwide network of linked computer servers, and multiple layers of data encryption. The Broadband Account shows that additional TOR connections were made again on November 17, 26, 30, and December 5.
[snip]
First, there is clear and convincing evidence that the defendant has violated a release condition—namely, the condition that he shall not use the Internet without express authorization from Pretrial Services to do so. As explained above, data obtained from the Schulte Email Account and the Broadband Account strongly suggests that the defendant has been using the Internet since shortly after his release on bail. Especially troubling is the defendant’s apparent use on five occasions of the TOR network. TOR networks enable anonymous communications over the Internet and could be used to download or view child pornography without detection. Indeed, the defendant has a history of using TOR networks. The defendant’s Google searches obtained in this investigation show that on May 8, 2016, the defendant conducted multiple searches related to the use of TOR to anonymously transfer encrypted data on the Internet. In particular, the defendant had searched for “setup for relay,” “test bridge relay,” and “tor relay vs bridge.” Each of these searches returned information regarding the use of interconnected computers on TOR to convey information, or the use of a computer to serve as the gateway (or bridge) into the TOR network.
December 14, 2017: Bail hearing; US custody in NY
MR. KAPLAN: Well, your Honor, we’ve obtained the discovery given to prior counsel, and I’ve started to go through that. In addition, there was one other issue which I believe was raised at our prior conference, which was a security clearance for counsel to go through some of the national security evidence that might be present in the case.
While most of the national security stuff does not involve the charges, the actual charges against Mr. Schulte, the basis for the search warrants in this case involve national security.
So I’m starting the process with their office to hopefully get clearance to go through some of the information on that with an eye towards possibly a Franks motion going forward. So I would ask for more time just to get that rolling.
December 21, 2017: Complaint filed against Julian Assange
January 8, 2018: Bail appeal hearing
MR. KAPLAN: Judge, on the last court date, when we left, the idea was that we had consented to detention with the understanding that Mr. Schulte would be sent down to Virginia to face charges based on a Virginia warrant. None of that happened. Virginia never came to get him. Virginia just didn’t do anything in this case. But before I address the bail issues, I think it’s important that this Court hear the full story of how we actually get here. At one of the previous court appearances, I believe it was the November 8th date, this Court asked why the defense attorney in this case would need security clearance. And the answer that was given by one of the prosecutors, I believe, was that there was some top secret government information that was found in Mr. Schulte’s apartment, and that out of an abundance of caution it would be prudent that the defense attorney get clearance. But I don’t think that’s entirely accurate.
While the current indictment charges Mr. Schulte with child pornography, this case comes out of a much broader perspective. In March of 2017, there was the WikiLeaks leak, where 8,000 CIA documents were leaked on the Internet. The FBI believed that Mr. Schulte was involved in that leak. As part of their investigation, they obtained numerous search warrants for Mr. Schulte’s phone, for his computers, and other items, in order to establish the connection between Mr. Schulte and the WikiLeaks leak.
As we will discuss later in motion practice, we believe that many of the facts relied on to get the search warrants were just flat inaccurate and not true, and part of our belief is because later on, in the third or fourth search warrant applications, they said some of the facts that we mentioned earlier were not accurate. So we will address this in a Franks motion going forward, but what I think is important for the Court is, in April or May of 2017, the government had full access to his computers and his phone, and they found the child pornography in this case, but what they didn’t find was any connection to the WikiLeaks investigation. Since that point, from May going forward, although they later argued he was a danger to the community, they let him out; they let him travel. There was no concern at all. That changed when they arrested him in August on the child pornography case.
[snip]
The second basis that the government had in its letter for detaining Mr. Schulte was the usage of computers. In the government’s letter, they note how, if you search the IP address for Mr. Schulte’s apartment, they found numerous log-ons to his Gmail account, in clear violation of this court’s order. But what the government’s letter doesn’t mention is that Mr. Schulte had a roommate, his cousin, Shane Presnall, and this roommate, who the government and pretrial services knew about, was allowed to have a computer.
And more than that, based on numerous conversations, at least two conversations between pretrial services, John Moscato, Josh Schulte and Shane Presnall, it was Shane’s understanding that pretrial services allowed him to check Mr. Schulte’s e-mail and to do searches for him on the Internet, with the idea that Josh Schulte himself would not have access to the computer.
And the government gave 14 pages of log-on information to establish this point. And, Judge, we have gone through all 14 pages, and every single access and log-in corresponds to a time that Shane Presnall is in the apartment. His computer has facial recognition, it has an alphanumeric code, and there is no point when Josh Schulte is left himself with the computer without Shane being there, and that was their understanding.
LAROCHE: As defense counsel noted, in March of 2016, there was a significant disclosure of classified material from the Central Intelligence Agency. The material that was taken was taken during a time when the defendant was working at the agency. The government immediately had enough evidence to establish that he was a target of that investigation. They conducted a number of search warrants on the defendant’s residence. And I would disagree with defense counsel’s characterization that those search warrants haven’t yielded anything that is consistent with his involvement in that disclosure. In fact, our investigation is ongoing. He remains a target of that investigation. And part of that investigation is analyzing whether and to what extent TOR was used in transmitting classified information. So the fact that the defendant is now, while on pretrial release, using TOR from his apartment, when he was explicitly told not to use the Internet, is extremely troubling and suggests that he did willfully violate his bail conditions.
KAPLAN: In this case, the reason why TOR was accessed was because Mr. Schulte is writing articles, conducting research and writing articles about the criminal justice system and what he has been through, and he does not want the government looking over his shoulder and seeing what exactly he is searching.
LAROCHE: Because there is a classified document that is located on the defendant’s computer, it is extremely difficult, and we have determined not possible, to remove that document forensically and still provide an accurate copy of the desktop computer to the defendant.
So in those circumstances, defense counsel is going to require a top secret clearance in order to view these materials. It’s my understanding that that process is ongoing, and we have asked them to expedite it. As soon as the defendant’s application is in, we believe he will get an interim classification to review this material within approximately two to three weeks. Unfortunately, that hasn’t occurred yet. So the defendant still does not have access to that particular aspect of discovery. So we are working through that as quickly as we can.

The government also tells me that they are not yet ready, and I’m going to ask the Court for some relief on this point, in terms of superseding Mr. Schulte with the additional charges that they’ve been talking about bringing.
[snip]
MR. LAROCHE: The superseder, that’s correct, your Honor. As the Court is aware, this case — the investigation — started not as a child pornography investigation but a broader investigation that’s been referred to during court. The government is moving as quickly as possible to try to get to a superseder in this case, and we are anticipating that there will be a superseder. Because of the nature of the underlying investigation, that requires consultation with people outside of our office, which we are doing as quickly as we can. We’re trying to get that done. THE COURT: Can you put a time frame on this, Mr. Laroche? MR. LAROCHE: We are hopeful that we will get this done within the next 45 days. That’s our hope. We’re moving as quickly as we can to get that done, and as I said, we’re consulting with a lot of folks that are not within our office, so we’re moving as quickly as we can on that front.
[snip]
MS. SHROFF: Mr. Schulte has been under indictment, as I understand it, or at least under arrest, since August of 2017. I came in late, so I want to make sure my dates are not wrong. I’m not asking Mr. Laroche or the government to tell me what it is they’re doing in the grand jury. But surely telling me that they’re going to investigate him or charge him with, I don’t know, an 18 U.S.C. 371 violation — or are they charging him with sedition? Are they charging him with espionage? I’d like to know generally out loud what Mr. Schulte is being charged with. I don’t think it should be a secret what he’s being charged with. That’s No. 2. And August of 2017, we’re almost at — look, I’m not pushing this, because I’m behind in my review, so I want to be candid with the Court, but I doubt it’s fair to Mr. Schulte to first proceed on a child pornography trial and then proceed on a second trial when the evidence of the two is clearly interlinked, as is the motion practice. Basically we’re just spinning our wheels here. I ask the Court most respectfully to set a deadline. Either they supersede or they’re done.
