I don’t think you have followed cases and rulings by Judge Trenga very closely, or how many grand jury’s Manning was called on to rehash the same thing over and over. His fines for refusing to retestify were accrued daily and totalled around $250,000.
The person Manning communicated with, and assumed was Assange might have been FBI man on the inside Sigurder Thoradson. Thoradson was convicted of impersonating Assange, as well as fraud, and embezzlement at WikiLeaks.
Along with his pedophile convictions, he is really an impeccable, unimpeachable witness. Referred to as “Teenager” in the superseding indictments, I assume the FBI gave Thoradson that pseudonym for his penchant for raping teen boys.
