发帖数: 29846 | 1 U.S. Army Private First Class Bradley Manning’s maximum prison sentence of
136 years was reduced to a maximum sentence of 90 years behind bars.
Judge Denise Lind, an Army colonel, announced Manning’s reduced sentence
during a closed session at Ft. Meade, Md., on Tuesday. Lind agreed in part
to a motion proposed by the defense to merge various charges against Manning.
“She merged two Espionage specifications for transmission of the Iraq and
Afghan SigActs, the theft and transmission of the Guantanamo Bay Detainee
Assessment Briefs (DABs), and the theft and fraudulent downloading of the
State Dept. cables and GTMO DABs,” Nathan Fuller, a writer for the Bradley
Manning Support Network, reports.
Manning released over 700,000 classified diplomatic and military documents
to WikiLeaks in 2009, which published the material in 2010.
The 25-year old Army private was acquitted last week of the charge for
aiding the enemy, the most serious of the charges that Manning faced.
He faced 22 charges, including several violations of the Espionage Act of
1917.
A major criticism of Manning was that the documents he leaked to WikiLeaks
put the lives of U.S. forces and American allies at risk.
However, during the trial, a senior U.S. counter-intelligence officer
admitted that the U.S. military did not uncover a specific example of loss
of life that could be attributed to WikiLeaks’ publication of the documents.
“I don’t have a specific example,” said Brigadier General Robert Carr,
head of the Information Review Task Force, which investigated the impact of
the leak.
The decision to acquit Manning of the aiding the enemy charge brought relief
to many in the information activist community who believed that a guilty
verdict would have a chilling effect on whistle-blowers and online
journalism.
Amnesty International credited WikiLeaks and its various media partners in
May 2011 for their role in catalyzing the “Arab spring” by vetting and
publishing the documents provided by Manning. | I******I

发帖数: 3435 | 7 大家去看看以前的whstle blower都是什么结果，大多数都无罪了，少数判了几年。而
且全部人在审判过程中都可以保释。
爱国者法案通过以后，美国政府权力大大加强，maning一直都在狱中，而且还是军事法
庭审判，都秘密进行，都是什么事情。snowden还是逃了好，否则也一直蹲监狱，最后
判几十年。根本就不可能有fair trial。
