Army General Denies Chelsea Manning Clemency Bid 
-------------------------------------------------


 
An Army general has denied the clemency bid of Chelsea Manning and
upheld her 35-year prison sentence. Manning was seeking leniency for
leaking a trove of classified U.S. documents to Wiki Leaks, arguing it
was done for the public good. With the general's denial, Manning's
request will go to the Army Court of Criminal Appeals.
