Ahead of Trial, Bradley Manning Seeks Withheld Gov't Evidence and Dismissal of 10 Charges
DemocracyNow.org - For just the third time since he was arrested over two years ago, alleged Army whistleblower Bradley Manning was seen by the public this week at a pre-trial hearing in a military court at Fort Meade, Maryland. The 24-year-old Private is accused of leaking hundreds of thousands of documents to the whistleblowing website WikiLeaks including secret files on the Iraq and Afghan wars. Manning's attorneys are seeking the dismissal of 10 of the counts against Manning as well as the release of hundreds of thousands of documents relating to the alleged leak. We speak with Kevin Gosztola, a civil liberties blogger at Firedoglake.com who has been attending Manning's pre-trial hearing.
