WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, who recently struck a plea deal with US prosecutors, plans to enjoy his freedom and get some rest, according to his wife. After spending five years fighting against extradition in a British prison and almost seven years seeking refuge in Ecuador’s London embassy, Assange left prison on Monday and returned to Australia. His wife revealed that he plans to swim in the ocean, sleep in a real bed, and savor real food. Assange’s plea deal involved pleading guilty to one charge of conspiracy to obtain and disclose national defense information in exchange for a “time served” sentence.
