New questions about the Bradley Manning conviction
He's called a hero by some and a traitor by others. Today, a military judge convicted Army Private Bradley Manning of a string of charges including violating the Espionage Act for handing classified information to WikiLeaks. He was acquitted of the more serious charge of aiding the enemy. Today's verdict is raising new questions about just how much harm Manning actually caused.
