Did he have to be in custody to be charged?
Also Manning should have been executed for treason, not given a sex change and release from prison.
I believe Manning has testified that Assange “tasked him” regarding the material he gathered. If so Assange did commit espionage, no different then a foreign government tasking an agent.
