Julian Assange has been released from a British prison and will plead guilty to a conspiracy charge in a remote Pacific island court as part of a plea deal with the U.S. This agreement will end his long legal battle over the publication of classified documents.
He is expected to appear in court in the Northern Mariana Islands to officially enter his plea.
The deal likely means Assange will no longer own WikiLeaks, the platform he used to release a vast amount of classified information.
