But lawyer Khin Maung Oo said the US military veteran was a "sincere and pious" person who believed God had told him to warn Aung San Suu Kyi and the government after he had a vision that she would be assassinated.
"There is no issue of him acting on someone's instruction to him or that some organisation provided money to him to do so," Khin Maung Oo said of his client, who like Aung Suu Kyi faces up to five years in jail. "As far as I know, he's a very sincere and pious person.
