Bradley Manning Legal Defense Ready for Next Round Monday; Supporters to Hold Vigil, and Fill Court Room

Join us at Ft. Meade!

On Monday, July 16, PFC Bradley Manning returns to the Ft. Meade, Maryland, military court room for the next pre-trial hearing. These hearings determine what arguments, evidence, and witness the defense and prosecution can argue during the court-martial trial. Bradley’s trial is currently set to begin in November; however, the prosecution is now maneuvering for February 2013, at the earliest! Even if the trial started in November, Bradley will have been in jail for more than two and a half years – a thousand days – without a court martial. This is not due process. Army Judge Denise Lind is finally expected to set a real timeline for Bradley’s court martial next week.

Join the vigil Monday morning at the Fort Meade Main Gate, 8am-10am (Maryland 175 & Reece Rd, Fort Meade, MD), and let’s fill the court room through the week.
