Bradley Manning less than 24 hours away from prison release
Bradley Manning (aka Chelsea Manning) is now less than 24 hours away from his early release from prison. Manning was to have served 35 years behind bars, but shortly before leaving office, Barack Obama commuted Manning’s sentence.
Manning has been in US custody since 2010.
Bradley Manning’s story is both a tragic and heroic one.
Born in the United States in 1987, Manning moved with his mother to Wales where he faced bullying at school. In 2007, he enlisted in the US army after working some menial jobs back in America.
