Just to be "that guy" 
I completely understand the desire of the American authorities to have wanted McKinnon imprisoned.
Look at it from their viewpoint: If McKinnon's "justification" is accepted, then ANYONE caught hacking into a government computer system could simply plea "I was looking for the truth about UFOs!"
Misses the point entirely. Those systems are not open to public access. Hacking them is a crime, period. If McKinnon had done that with sensitive Russian systems, let's just say he would have had a deadly encounter with the Russian secret service.
Not to mention I seriously doubt any truly informative commentary about UFOs would be found on government systems. I am more convinced every day the government's "knowledge" of that phenomenon is nothing more than collections of data and speculation no more informed than what we do on this forum. As to "terran space fleets" ... well, for all we know, what McKinnon found was a honey pot designed to trap people like him.
Cheers
