Marcy I'm new to this universe. Do leakers of this magnitude typically get plea deals? Would the govt be avoiding trial or do they think he is involved in something bigger? Some things I read (and read into) on him suggested the latter to me.

Hard to tell. They have to be furious about him, but also might want to use him against WikiLeaks. Undoubtedly, they want to avoid a trial, though, for fear of exacerbating the damage of the leak.

Good point...and at some juncture we need to look at how much the FBI is funneling defendants to plea...lots of low hanging fruit so far on what would normally be HUGE criminal charges...methinks we're headed to the bay of treason on this ship.
