I think the plan is fairly simple: to clear his name by showing these absurd trumped-up charges for what they are, the machiavellian machinations of the US via a disturbingly compliant Swedish legal system.

I'm sorry, but there is simply _nothing_ he could ever say to them that would make those charges go away. How is the name clearing supposed to happen?



Traditionally, by starting with "Not guilty, Your Honor," and going from there, but things might be different in Sweden.


AFAIK they already have statements to that effect, he made them earlier while he was still in the country.


AFAIK, they have statements like that from the alleged victims... If that didn't make them drop the charges, I am not sure what would.
