Chelsea Manning Faces New Charges After Suicide Attempt
-------------------------------------------------------

Imprisoned Army whistleblower Chelsea Manning faces new charges after
she tried to commit suicide on July 5. The Army told Manning yesterday
she is being investigated on charges that include having prohibited
property in her cell and resisting being moved out of the cell. If
convicted, Manning could face punishment including indefinite solitary
confinement and additional time in prison. It could also negate the
chance of parole. Manning is serving a 35-year sentence at Fort
Leavenworth, Kansas.
