Chelsea Manning was once again found in contempt by a federal judge for refusing to testify before a grand jury and will return to jail, just seven days after being released from the same jail.
In a court proceeding Thursday in Alexandria, Virginia, Manning was remanded by the US Marshals Service and will return to detention. The judge also ruled that she will be fined $500 per day after 30 days and $1,000 per day after 60 days.Manning, a former Army intelligence analyst, was released from federal custody last week after spending 62 days in jail for refusing to testify before another grand jury in March about her disclosure of military and diplomatic secrets to WikiLeaks in 2010.
US Attorney Zachary Terwilliger, the top federal prosecutor in the Eastern District of Virginia, told reporters Thursday that his team had"bent over backwards to accommodate" Manning's medical needs and schedule.We"never once made this about anything other than obtaining immunized testimony in furtherance of an investigation," he said, adding that"all we want is her to truthfully answer questions as our constitutional republic requires of our citizens.
