Manning has been jailed for refusing to cooperate with a grand jury investigation into WikiLeaks.
ALEXANDRIA, Va. – Chelsea Manning was recovering Wednesday after attempting suicide while jailed here for refusing to cooperate with a grand jury investigation into WikiLeaks, according to attorneys for the former Army intelligence analyst.
"In spite of those sanctions – which have so far included over a year of so-called coercive incarceration and nearly half a million dollars in threatened fines – she remains unwavering in her refusal to participate in a secret grand jury process that she sees as highly susceptible to abuse," Manning's legal team said in a written statement.
