因泄密入狱的曼宁要求减刑

发布时间:2017-05-12  编辑:查字典英语网小编

U.S. soldier Chelsea Manning, who is serving 35 years in prison for leaking classified documents, is asking President Barack Obama to commute her sentence to time served. She said in her application to the president, released by her attorneys, that there is no historical precedent for such an extreme sentence for leaking documents.

Manning, a former intelligence analyst in Iraq, has served more than six years of a 35-year sentence for leaking more than 700,000 secret military documents as well as battlefield videos to WikiLeaks.

Since being convicted, the soldier, originally called Bradley Manning, has said she identifies as a women. She tried to commit suicide last month while in solitary confinement, where she was placed after an earlier suicide attempt.

Manning wrote in her application to the president that she is living through "a cycle of anxiety, anger, hopelessness, loss and depression."

She is being held at the Fort Leavenworth military prison in Kansas. Manning is not asking for a pardon, meaning her conviction will stay on her record.

因泄漏机密文件被判35年监禁的前美军情报分析员切尔西·曼宁请求奥巴马总统为她减刑。曼宁律师公布了她向奥巴马提交的申请。申请说,美国从未有过因泄漏机密文件而被判如此重刑的先例。

曼宁原任美军驻伊拉克情报分析员,她由于向维基揭密泄漏了70多万份军事机密文件以及军事影像资料而被判35年监禁,她现已服完六年多的刑期。

切尔西·曼宁过去叫布莱德利·曼宁,她被判刑后改变性别,从男性变为女性。曼宁上个月被单独关押时曾试图自杀,她就是因为自杀未遂才被单独关押的。

她在写给奥巴马总统的信中说,她现在生活在焦虑,愤怒,无助,失落和抑郁之中。

目前曼宁被关押在堪萨斯州利文沃斯堡军事监狱。曼宁要求的不是赦免,也就是说她的有罪判决不会取消。
