BBC reports:
An autistic man suspected of hacking into US government computer systems is to be extradited from Britain to face trial, a court has ruled. Lauri Love, 31, who has Asperger's Syndrome, is accused of hacking into the FBI, the US central bank and the country's missile defence agency. Mr Love, from Stradishall, Suffolk, has previously said he feared he would die in a US prison if he was extradited.

Personally, I'd be more concerned about being raped or assaulted than killed.
As somebody that would be serving time for breaking into the government servers looking for evidence of a UFO cover up, it's unlikely that he'd have any particular enemies entering into prison. Certainly not like being sent to prison for molesting children or things of that nature.
Probably the biggest strike against him would be the typical poor social skills that usually accompany ASD.
