SNIPPET: “Prosecutors closed after presenting evidence from 80 witnesses, trying to prove Pfc Bradley Manning let military secrets fall into the hands of al Qaeda and its former leader Osama bin Laden.
The 25-year-old former Army intelligence analyst is charged with 21 offences, including aiding the enemy, which carries a possible life sentence.
To prove that charge, prosecutors must show Manning gave intelligence to the anti-secrecy website, knowing it would be published online and seen by an enemy of the United States.
Manning has acknowledged sending more than 700,000 Iraq and Afghanistan war logs and State Department diplomatic cables, along with several battlefield video clips, to WikiLeaks while working in Baghdad from November 2009 through May 2010.”
