Chelsea Manning Jailed Again For Defying Subpoena

Axios reports:



U.S. Army whistleblower Chelsea Manning has been jailed again on civil contempt charges for refusing to cooperate with a grand jury subpoena on Thursday. Manning told reporters earlier on Thursday from in front of the courthouse that she’d rather remain in jail “forever,” than testify before a grand jury on the details of Wikileaks.

“I’ve already been to prison, so attempting to coerce me with a grand jury subpoena is just not going to work … The goal here is to re-litigate the court martial … They didn’t like the outcome, I got out. This is a way of placing me back into confinement.”
