WikiLeaks suspect hearing set for December 16
The American soldier behind bars for more than 18 months, suspected of leaking classified documents to the WikiLeaks website, will go before a military panel on December 16, according to a U.S. military release.
The military made the announcement Monday afternoon regarding Pfc. Bradley Manning. The hearing will happen at Fort George G. Meade in Maryland. CNN.com placed a call to Manning's attorney, who was not immediately available for comment.
Manning is charged with aiding the enemy, wrongfully causing intelligence to be published on the Internet knowing that it is accessible to the enemy, theft of property or records, transmitting defense information, fraud and related activity in connection with computers and violating Army regulations, according to the military.
If convicted of all charges, he would face life in prison and a dishonorable discharge.
In February, a friend of Manning's told reporters that the soldier, who was 23 when he was arrested in 2010, was deteriorating mentally and physically from his imprisonment. Manning was initially held at the Marine brig in Quantico, Virginia, but has since been transferred to the prison at Fort Leavenworth in Kansas.
Last month, WikiLeaks founder and editor Julian Assange was ordered extradited from England to Sweden to face charges related to a sex crime investigation unrelated to WikiLeaks. But Assange's extradition is significant in the WikiLeaks story because many say that if he is behind bars, WikiLeaks will not be able to continue.

So nbow that you have that knowledge, than he should pay the price for leaking that imfo? It goes to leeintulsa, is the perfect example of some to sacrifice five people to get what you want, is it not true?
What i want? I didn't tell him to do anything..
A lot of people in this world are puppets to witchs at black masses, especially when the generals gather in there masses, war pigs are in the same category as civillian war supporters .its atrocios that people can throw stones when they throw stones at each other. At least this man was brave enough to throw bullets at the enemy. Unlike you civies who back stab your own population, love ones , children ,but in that case its ok, or to you its a different story. Or maybe at tge end of every day of your life you wonder why you hurt the people that you have hurt your whole life!!!!! So come back on ok?

You need to go through a hell of a lot more in life before you become perfect, i hope to god that you never get that far .

@ banasy

I wonder if he will be able to claim PTSD since jail is no holiday?
Register with our upcoming demonstration and be amazed by what you see, and realized that you too can do this with some practice with your part. Gold trading academy.
Being ex-military i dont give a crap about this guy. Let the right wingers save him.

Only willful liars speak-out about truth being learned.
Odd how people confuse wars on foreign nations with decade-long occupations of them.
