Not Guilty

     In this trial, the burden of proof rests solely upon the prosecution. They needed to prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that Edward Snowden was guilty. Given the scarce amount of evidence provided as to his guilt, it is impossible to fairly charge him with such a strong accusation as treason. Furthermore, the prosecution failed to refute the defense's point regarding Supreme Court precedent. Though the trial was very close, there was far too much grey area left to reasonably convict Snowden of any of these charges.
