And then the same-- the same amendment has occurred to Specification 7 your Honor. |

XXXXXXXXXX [ Col. David M. Miller, Commander of the 10th Mountain Division's Second Brigade ] He will testify that the brigade did not want to take the wrong personnel forward, nor did the brigade want to leave a large rear D [detachment] behind for a small staff to manage and lead. He expected the leaders in the Brigade to identify, those soldiers who should not deploy. He will testify that his S-2, the officer in charge of PFC Manning, XXXXXXXXXX, [ Maj. Cliff Clausen ] was not up to the standard of performance that he expected out of someone in that position. Based upon his discussions with then XXXXXXXXXX [WHO IS THIS?] and XXXXXXXXXX [ WHO IS THIS? ], XXXXXXXXXX [ Col. David M. Miller, Commander of the 10th Mountain Division's Second Brigade ] decided it was best to remove XXXXXXXXXX [ Maj. Cliff Clausen ] from his position as the S2 and place XXXXXXXXXX [ Captain Steven Lim ] into that job. He will testify that from his perspective, the issues surrounding PFC Manning should have been something that the S2 personnel would have been more involved in than the company. However, there were several issues that may have impacted the response to PFC Manning's issues. First, during that time period [ AROUND MAY OR APRIL 2010 ] the former company commander, XXXXXXXXXX [ A YET UNIDENTIFIED CAPTAIN ] was relieved over property accountability and due to the fact he was not making good decisions. Second, XXXXXXXXXX [ Master Sergeant Paul David Adkins (now Sergeant First Class due to administrative action) ], the NCOIC [Non Commissioned Officer in Charge] in the S2 Section, was 'marginal, but not bad enough to either relieve or replace. He will testify that then XXXXXXXXXX [ WHAT IS THIS? ] was technically competent but that he lacked leader skills expected of a XXXXXXXXXX [ WHAT IS THIS? ]. He will also testify that commanders (in conjunction with their unit security manager) are allotted 30 days to submit an initial DA 5248-R following the discovery of credible derogatory information on a Soldier. After the initial DEROG is submitted and processed by SID/CCF [Security Investigations Division/ Central Clearance Facility], the unit has 90 days to submit a follow-up 5248-R if there is a pending investigation or adverse action taken (e.g., summary court-martial). Once the investigation/proceedings are completed and the Soldier has been cleared/charged of offense, the unit must submit a final DEROG. In this case, he will testify that then XXXXXXXXXX [ Master Sergeant Paul David Adkins (now Sergeant First Class due to administrative action) ] failed to keep the chain of command informed of PFC Manning emotional and mental condition. He will testify that this failure resulted in the command not submitting a DEROG in a timely manner. |

On 29 July 2010, I was transferred to the Quantico Brig from Kuwait. Upon my arrival, I was placed in Maximum (MAX) custody and under suicide risk.
[...]
The suicide risk means that I sit in my cell for 24 hours a day. I am stripped of all clothing with the exception of my underwear. My prescription eyeglasses are taken away from me. I am forced to sit in essential blindness with the exception of the times that I am reading or given limited television privileges. During those times, my glasses are returned to me. Additionally, there is a guard sitting outside my cell watching me at all times. |

WASHINGTON (Army News Service, July 30, 2010) - The Soldier suspected of leaking classified information to the website 'WikiLeaks' arrived last night at a pre-trial confinement facility on Quantico Marine Base, Va., as part of the transfer of court-martial jurisdiction in his case to the U. S. Army Military District of Washington.
Pfc. Bradley E. Manning had been confined at Camp Arifjan, Kuwait, since May 29 after being suspected of providing WikiLeaks classified video showing a July 2007 Apache helicopter strike in Baghdad. He is now also suspected of being involved in leaking thousands of intelligence reports about the conflict in Afghanistan.
Manning was charged on July 5 with four specifications under Article 92 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice for violating Army Regulation 25-2 (Information Assurance Policy), and eight specifications under Article 134 for violating federal statutes related to the receipt of classified information (18 U.S.C. 793) and wrongful access of a government computer (18 U.S.C. 1030).
With his transfer to Quantico, Manning is now under the general court-martial convening authority of Maj. Gen. Karl R. Horst, MDW commanding general. Manning will remain in pre-trial confinement as the Army continues its investigation, officials said.
Maj. Gen. Terry Wolff, the general court-martial convening authority and commanding general of the 1st Armored Division/U.S. Division - Center in Iraq, requested the transfer to MDW due to a potentially lengthy pre-trial confinement because of the complexity of charges and an ongoing investigation. The field confinement facility in Kuwait is designed for short-term confinement.
The criminal investigation remains open, officials said. They explained that preferral of charges represents an accusation only and that Manning is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
Manning, of Potomac, Md., entered the Army in October 2007 as an intelligence analyst (Military Occupational Specialty 35F). He was assigned to the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division. That unit deployed to Iraq in October and is now in the process of returning back to Fort Drum, N.Y. |

The results of this damage review undercut the testimony of each of the representatives from the OCA for the charge documents in this case. Specifically, the damage assessments concluded that all the information allegedly leaked was either dated, represented low-level opinions, or was commonly understood and known due to previous public disclosures. |

XXXXXXXXXX [ROBERT GATES, FORMER SECRETARY OF DEFENSE] will testify that the Afghanistan and Iraq SIGACT releases did not reveal any sensitive intelligence sources or methods. He will also testify that the Department of Defense could not point to anyone in Afghanistan or Iraq harmed due to the documents released by WikiLeaks. He will testify that the Afghanistan and Iraq SIGACTs are simply ground-level field reports that document dated activities which do not disclose sensitive information or our sources and methods. XXXXXXXXXX [ROBERT GATES, FORMER SECRETARY OF DEFENSE] will also testify that the initial public descriptions of the harm to foreign policy due to the publication of diplomatic cables were 'fairly significantly overwrought.' He will also testify that although the disclosures were embarrassing and awkward, they did not represent significant consequences to foreign policy. Finally, XXXXXXXXXX [ROBERT GATES, FORMER SECRETARY OF DEFENSE] will testify that on 29 July 2010, he directed the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) to lead a comprehensive review of the documents allegedly given to WikiLeaks and to coordinate under the Information Review Task Force (IRTF, formerly TF 725) to conduct a complete damage review. He will testify that the damage review confirmed that the alleged leaks represented a low to at best moderate risk to national security. Specifically, that all of the information allegedly leaked was either dated, represented low-level opinions, or was already commonly understood and know due to previous public disclosures. |

Although outsiders have not been allowed to inspect the 'war room' in suburban Virginia and see its staff at work, national-security officials offered details of the operation to The Daily Beast, including the identity of the counterintelligence expert who has been put in charge: Brig. General Robert A. Carr of the Defense Intelligence Agency.
[...]
Officials say Carr, handpicked for the assignment by Defense Secretary Robert Gates, is highly respected among his colleagues at DIA...
[...]
Carr served in Afghanistan for much of last year before his transfer to the DIA in Washington, where he runs the Defense Counterintelligence and Human Intelligence Center. In his battle against Assange, officials say, Carr's central assignment is to try to determine exactly what classified information might have been leaked to WikiLeaks, and then to predict whether its disclosure could endanger American troops in the battlefield, as well as what larger risk it might pose to American foreign policy.
The team has another distinct responsibility: to gather evidence about the workings of WikiLeaks that might someday be used by the Justice Department to prosecute Assange and others on espionage charges.
[...]
Lapan said that, so far, the Pentagon has no evidence to suggest that any Afghan civilians have been harmed by the Taliban as a result of the release of the 76,000 logs this summera bit of good news that, he suggested, might be attributed to the efforts of Carr's team and Central Command to try to protect them. |

Marine Colonel David Lapan, a senior Pentagon spokesman, said the leaders of the task force believed they had a strong sense of what is contained in the 15,000 documents that Assange is threatening to release shortly.
'We believe we probably know what's in those,' he said. 'And we believe, again, that they will pose some risk to our forces in Afghanistan and to others.'
[...]
'It was their task to go through that initial release of the 76,000 documents and determine what information in each of them might put either livesor sources and methods, or operational securityat risk,' Lapan said of Carr's operation.
The team's assessments, he said, are passed to the United States Central Command, the military command that oversees American troops in Afghanistan, 'so they can get it out to folks in the field to take whatever steps are necessary' to protect American troops and Afghan civilians whose identities are revealed by the logs. |

On 6 August 2010, Capt. William Hocter, the forensic psychiatrist for the Brig, recommended that I be removed from suicide risk to Preventions of Injury (POI) watch. CWO4 Averhart [FORMER COMMANDER OF THE QUANTICO BRIG] followed that recommendation and I was moved to POI watch.
[...]
5.) Life was not much better for me under the previous confinement assignment of POI watch. Like suicide risk, I was held in solitary confinement. For 23 hours per day, I sat in my cell. The guards checked on me every five minutes by asking me if I was okay. I was required to respond in some affirmative manner. At night, if the guard could not see me clearly, because I had a blanket over my head or i was curled up towards the wall, they would wake me in order to ensure that I was okay. I received each of my meals in my cell. I was not allowed to have a pillow or sheets. I was not allowed to have any personal items in my cell. I was only allowed to have one book or magazine at any given time to read. The book or magazine was taken away from me at the end of the day before I went to sleep. I was prevented from exercising in me [sic] cell daily. The guards would take me to an empty room and allow me to walk. I usually walked in figure eights around the room. When I went to sleep, I was required to strip down to my underwear and surrender my clothing to the guards. my clothing was returned to me the next morning. |

Hocter and the Brig forensic psychiatrist, COL Ricky Malone, consistently recommended to CWO4 Averhart that I be taken off POI watch. The only exception to this was on 10 December 2010 when Capt. Hocter recommended that I remain under POI watch for one week. The following week, he once again recommended to CWO4 Averhart that I be removed from POI watch. Despite Capt. Hocter and COL Malone's consistent recommendations, I remained on POI watch and in MAX custody. |

The lead investigative unit for the government requested preservation of these items on 30 September 2010. See Appendix C. Given the government's own preservation request, it should easily be able to determine the location of these items. The government responded to the defense request by stating that 'it is still actively working to preserve related computer hard drives based on defense's preservation request dated 2l September 2011' |

Due to my improvement and adjustment to confinement, Capt. Hocter recommended on 27 August 2010 that I be taken off of POI watch and that my confinement classification be changed from MAX to Medium Custody In (MDI)...Over the course of the following three months, Capt. Hocter and the Brig forensic psychiatrist, COL Ricky Malone, consistently recommended to CWO4 Averhart that I be taken off POI watch. The only exception to this was on 10 December 2010 when Capt. Hocter recommended that I remain under POI watch for one week. The following week, he once again recommended to CWO4 Averhart that I be removed from POI watch. Despite Capt. Hocter and COL Malone's consistent recommendations, I remained on POI watch and in MAX custody.

5.) Life was not much better for me under the previous confinement assignment of POI watch. Like suicide risk, I was held in solitary confinement. For 23 hours per day, I sat in my cell. The guards checked on me every five minutes by asking me if I was okay. I was required to respond in some affirmative manner. At night, if the guard could not see me clearly, because I had a blanket over my head or i was curled up towards the wall, they would wake me in order to ensure that I was okay. I received each of my meals in my cell. I was not allowed to have a pillow or sheets. I was not allowed to have any personal items in my cell. I was only allowed to have one book or magazine at any given time to read. The book or magazine was taken away from me at the end of the day before I went to sleep. I was prevented from exercising in me [sic] cell daily. The guards would take me to an empty room and allow me to walk. I usually walked in figure eights around the room. When I went to sleep, I was required to strip down to my underwear and surrender my clothing to the guards. my clothing was returned to me the next morning. |

Our efforts, unfortunately, have not resulted any in positive results. To its credit, the SJA office is attempting to correct this situation. However, given the fact that Quantico is a Marine Corps facility, it has similarly had no success. |

[D]efense recently received reliable reports of a private meeting held on 13 January 2011, involving high-level Quantico officials where it was ordered that PFC Manning would remain in maximum custody and under prevention of injury watch indefinitely. The order to keep PFC Manning under these unduly harsh conditions was issued by a senior Quantico official who stated he would not risk anything happening 'on his watch.' When challenged by a Brig psychiatrist present at the meeting that there was no mental health justification for the decision, the senior Quantico official issuing the order responded, 'We will do whatever we want to do.' |

46.) He will testify that during a meeting early in January of 2011, the Security Battalion Commander in charge of the Quantico Brig. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX, clearly stated to the Brig Staff that, 'I will not have anything happen to Manning on my watch... So, nothing is going to change...He won't be able to hurt himself and he won't be able to get away, and our way of making sure of that is that he will remain on Maximum Custody and POI indefinitely.' He will testify that one of the other Brig psychiatrists, XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX then said, 'You know Sir, I am concerned because if you are going to do that, maybe you want to call it something else because it is not based upon anything from behavioral health.' In response, XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX will testify that XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX said, 'We will do whatever we want to do. You make a recommendation and then I have to make a decision based upon everything else.' XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX will testify that XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX then said 'Well then don't say it is based upon mental health. You can say Maximum Custody, and just don't put that we are somehow involved in this.' XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX replied, 'Well, that is what we are going to do.' XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX will testify that he spoke with others at the Brig to see if they knew why the Brig was so heavy handed on PFC Manning. He will testify that the others at the Brig told him that they have never seen anything like this before. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX will testify that others told him that they were afraid to speak out about the situation given the concern of what would happen as a result of any complaint about PFC Manning's treatment.
[...]
47.) XXXXXXXXXX [WHO IS THIS?] He will testify that neither the Quantico Brig Commander, XXXXXXXXXX, nor the Security Battalion Commander, XXXXXXXXXX gave him any reason for maintaining the Prevention of Injury precautions other than stating it was for PFC Manning's safety. He will testify that XXXXXXXXXX intimated that he was receiving instruction from a higher authority on the matter but did not say who was providing this direction. XXXXXXXXXX will testify that he knew that the higher base authorities had frequent (sometimes weekly) meetings to discuss PFC Manning. XXXXXXXXXX will testify that he gave weekly status reports stating that he felt the POI precautions were unnecessary. XXXXXXXXXX will testify that he recalls a meeting with XXXXXXXXXX where he stated that PFC Manning would remain in his current status Maximum Custody and POI unless and until he received instructions from higher authority to the contrary. XXXXXXXXXX cannot recall XXXXXXXXXX exact word, but he does recall that XXXXXXXXXX made it clear that nothing would change with PFC Manning regardless of his behavior of the recommendations of behavioral health.' |

On January 18, 2011, defense was notified that PFC Manning at the direction of XXXXXXXXXX, was placed in suicide risk. This decision was made over the recommendations of XXXXXXXXXX and the defense appointed XXXXXXXXXX. When PFC Manning was being ordered to surrender his clothes as part of the unnecessary suicide risk, the Brig made the decision to videotape this event along with an interrogation of PFC Manning by XXXXXXXXXX and others. On 19 January 2011, the defense filed a preservation of evidence request with the government and a request for the production of the video. The government has yet to respond to the defense request. The defense believes the video will support PFC Manning's claim of unlawful pretrial punishment. |

a. The video of PFC Manning being ordered to surrender his clothing at the direction of XXXXXXXXXX and his subsequent interrogation on 18 January 2011. Given the fact the defense filed a preservation of evidence request on 19 January 2011 - nearly one year ago - the government has no excuse for not providing the video . See Appendix A. The video is clearly within the possession of the government and should have already been produced. The government has responded that it 'will provide all matters requested that are it is possession no later than 2 December 2011.' |

The Army Staff Judge Advocate's Office was made aware of this situation on January 19, 2011. To its credit, the Army Staff Judge Advocate's Office worked through the military channels at the request of the defense to ensure that the Quantico Brig conducted a timely review of the necessity for the suicide risk restrictions. Based upon this review, CWO4 Averhart removed the suicide risk restrictions at 3:21 p.m. yesterday and placed PFC Manning back into POI watch. |

5.) Life was not much better for me under the previous confinement assignment of POI watch. Like suicide risk, I was held in solitary confinement. For 23 hours per day, I sat in my cell. The guards checked on me every five minutes by asking me if I was okay. I was required to respond in some affirmative manner. At night, if the guard could not see me clearly, because I had a blanket over my head or i was curled up towards the wall, they would wake me in order to ensure that I was okay. I received each of my meals in my cell. I was not allowed to have a pillow or sheets. I was not allowed to have any personal items in my cell. I was only allowed to have one book or magazine at any given time to read. The book or magazine was taken away from me at the end of the day before I went to sleep. I was prevented from exercising in me [sic] cell daily. The guards would take me to an empty room and allow me to walk. I usually walked in figure eights around the room. When I went to sleep, I was required to strip down to my underwear and surrender my clothing to the guards. my clothing was returned to me the next morning. |

[D]efense has been working to facilitate an official visit for Congressman Dennis Kucinich, Mr. Juan Mendez (the United Nations Special Rapporteur on Torture), and a representative from Amnesty International. Despite multiple inquires from the defense and the interested parties, the Quantico Brig and the Government have denied the requests for an 'official visit_The Government's position is that the above individuals are not entitled to an official visit because none of these individuals are conducting 'official government business.' |

The defense recently received reliable reports of a private meeting held on 13 January 2011, involving high-level Quantico officials where it was ordered that PFC Manning would remain in maximum custody and under prevention of injury watch indefinitely. The order to keep PFC Manning under these unduly harsh conditions was issued by a senior Quantico official [COL. ROBERT G. OLTMAN, FORMER SECURITY BATTALION COMMANDER] who stated he would not risk anything happening 'on his watch.' When challenged by a Brig psychiatrist present at the meeting that there was no mental health justification for the decision, the senior Quantico official [COL. ROBERT G. OLTMAN, FORMER SECURITY BATTALION COMMANDER] issuing the order responded, 'We will do whatever we want to do.' Based upon these statements and others, the defense was in the process of filing a writ of habeas corpus seeking a court ruling that the Quantico Brig violated PFC Manning's constitutional right to due process. See United States ex. rel. Accardi v. Shaughnessy, 74 S.Ct. 499 (1954) (violation of due process where result of board proceeding was predetermined); United States v. Anderson, 49 M.J. 575 (N.M. Ct. Crim. App. 1998) (illegal punishment where Marine Corps had an unwritten policy automatically placing certain detainees in MAX custody). The facts surrounding PFC Manning's pretrial confinement at Quantico make it clear that his detention was not 'in compliance with legal and regulatory standards in all respects' as maintained at the Pentagon press briefing. |

XXXXXXXXXX [PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA] The defense requests the presence of XXXXXXXXXX [PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA] in order to discuss the issue of Unlawful Command Influence (UCI). Under Rule for Courts-Martial 405(e), the defense is entitled to explore the issue of UCI. Under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), a superior officer in the chain of command is prohibited from saying or doing anything that could influence any decision by u subordinate in how to handle a military justice matter. As the XXXXXXXXXX [PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA] made improper comments on 21 April 2011, when he decided to comment on PFC Manning and his case. On that date, he responded to questions regarding PFC Manning's alleged actions by concluding that 'We're a nation of laws. We don't let individuals make their own decisions about how the laws operate. He [PFC Manning] broke the law.' The comments by XXXXXXXXXX [PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA] are UCI. The defense intends to question XXXXXXXXXX [PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA] on the nature of his discussions with members of the military regarding this case and whether he has made any other statements that would either influence the prosecution of this case or PFC Manning's right to obtain a fair trial. In additional to the UCI issue, XXXXXXXXXX [PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA] will testify about his views on the Afghanistan SIGACTs released by WikiLeaks. He will testify that the leak did not reveal any issues that had not already informed our public debate on Afghanistan. He will also testify that the Afghanistan SIGACTs point to the same challenges that led him to conduct an extensive review of the Afghanistan policy. XXXXXXXXXX [PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA] will also testify about the problem of over-classification within the government. Specifically, that he supported and signed into law the Reducing Over-Classification Act on 7 October 2010. Additionally, he will testify, that on his first full day in office , 2l January 2009, he issued two memoranda for the head of Executive Departments and Agencies that were related to transparency in government. The first memorandum focused on the administration of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), and the second focused on transparency and open government. XXXXXXXXXX [PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA] will testify that the transparency memorandum he wrote committed the administration to 'an unprecedented level of openness' and to the establishment of 'a system of transparency, public participation, and collaboration' XXXXXXXXXX [PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA] will testify that on 8 December 2009 his administration released a third memorandum - an Open Government Directive (OGD). The OGD included detailed instructions for departments and agencies on how they are to 'implement the principles of transparency, participation, and collaboration.' Finally, on 29 December 2009, XXXXXXXXXX [PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA] will testify, that he issued Executive Order 13526 in an attempt to improve the system for classifying, safeguarding, and declassifying national security information, including the establishment of the National Declassification Center. |

The lead investigative unit for the government requested preservation of these items on 30 September 2010. See Appendix C. Given the government's own preservation request, it should easily be able to determine the location of these items. The government responded to the defense request by stating that 'it is still actively working to preserve related computer hard drives based on defense's preservation request dated 2l September 2011' |

The government responded to the defense request for production of evidence on 30 November 2011.
[_]
Instead of responding to the defense request as envisioned under R.C.M. 405(g)(l)(B), the government simply treated the request as another request for discovery. Consistent with its previous responses to discovery requests, the government provided one of the following responses: (a) a general denial; (b) a statement that it had already provided all information in its possession; or (c) a statement that it was either unaware of any information or did not presently have the authority to disclose the requested information.
[_]
a.) [_] The video is clearly within the possession of the government and should have already been produced. The government has responded that it 'will provide all matters requested that are it is possession no later than 2 December 2011.'
[_]
b.) [_]Thus far, the defense believes it has only received information on one of the fifteen individuals recommended for adverse administrative action. The government has responded that it 'has provided all matters requested that are in its possession.'
[_]
c.) [_] The lead investigative unit for the government requested preservation of these items on 30 September 2010. See Appendix C. Given the government's own preservation request, it should easily be able to determine the location of these items. The government responded to the defense request by stating that 'it is still actively working to preserve related computer hard drives based on defense's preservation request dated 2l September 2011'
[_]
d.) [_] Under military law, the trial counsel has an affirmative obligation to seek out requested evidence by the defense that is in the possession of the government even if that evidence is not already in the immediate possession of the trial counsel. United States v. Williams, 50 M.J . 436,441 (C.A.A.F. 1999); United States v. Bryan 868 F.2d 1032,1036 (9th Cir. 1989), United States v. Brooks, 966F.2d 1500, 1503 (1992) (the government is considered to have possession of information that is in the control of agencies that are 'closely aligned with the prosecution'). The defense specifically requested the below listed information from the government that is in control of agencies that are closely aligned with this prosecution. As is apparent from the government's responses, it has either purposefully chosen to not search for the specifically requested information, or is shirking its responsibility to do so by saying it has 'no knowledge'
[_]
XXXXXXXXXX [RUSSELL TRAVERS] National Security Staff's Senior Advisor for Information Access and Security Policy was tasked to lead a comprehensive effort to review the alleged leaks in this case. See Appendix D. The government responded to the defense request by stating that it 'has no knowledge of any Brady or Jencks material_[and] will make a determination whether to provide the information if and when it becomes aware of such records.'
[_]
ii) A copy of any e-mail, report, assessment, directive, or discussion by XXXXXXXXXX to the Department of Defense concerning this case in order to determine the presence of unlawful command influence. See R.C.M. 405(e). Additionally, defense requests any e-mail, report, assessment, directive, or discussion by to the Department of State or Department of Justice concerning this case. The government responded to the defense request by stating that it 'has no knowledge of any Brady or Jencks material [_] [and] will make a determination whether to provide the information if and when it becomes aware of such records.'
[_]
iii) The damage assessment conducted by the Information Review Task Force and by XXXXXXXXXX [WHAT IS THIS?]. See Appendix E and F. The government responded that it 'has no knowledge of any Brady or Jencks material_ [andJ does not presently have the authority to disclose damage assessments, if any, cited by the defense and will make a determination whether to provide the information if and when it becomes available.'
[_]
iv.) The collateral investigations by the Department of State, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Office of the National Counterintelligence Executive and XXXXXXXXXX [CIA See Defense Reply to Government Response to Defense Motion to Compel Discovery No. 2, May 10, 2012] The defense is entitled to receive any forensic results and investigative reports by any of the cooperating agencies in this investigation. United States v. Williams, 50 M.J. 436, 441 (C.A.A.F. 1999); United States v. Bryan, 868 F.2d 1032, 1036 19th Cir. 1989); (United States v. Brooks,966F.2d 1500, 1503 (1992);Article 46, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). The government responded that it 'has no knowledge of any Brady or Jencks material [_] [and] has provided all forensic results and investigative reports requested that are in its possession and that the United States has authority to disclose.'
v.) The Department of Justice investigation into the alleged leaks by WikiLeaks as referenced by XXXXXXXXXX to include any grand jury testimony and any information relating to any 18 U.S.C. 2703(d) order or any search warrant by the government of Twitter, Facebook, Google or any other social media site. Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83 (1963);Jencks v. United States,353 U.S. 657 (1957). The government responded that it 'presently has no knowledge of any Brady or Jencks material_and will furnish said records to the defense should it become aware of such records.'
vi.) The Department of State damage assessment review conducted by its task force of over 120 individuals. This task force reviewed each released diplomatic cable. See Appendix G. The government responded that it 'has no knowledge of any Brady or Jencks material [_] [and] does not presently have the authorize to disclose damage assessments, if any, cited by the defense and will make a determination whether to provide the information if and when it becomes available'
e.) The Damage Assessment of Compromised Information that is required to be submitted to the Special Security Officer (SSO) under DoD 5105.21-M-1 once an SCI Security Official determines that a security violation has occurred. The defense also requested a copy of the final security violation investigation report submitted to the SSO DoD Defense Intelligence Agency under DoD 5105.21-M-1. The government had not previously responded to the defense discovery requests for this information. The government's response confirms that the alleged disclosures in this case did not involve any sensitive compartmented information. While this fact alone is not dispositive of whether the alleged disclosures caused harm, it is an additional factor supporting the defense request for production of the above damage assessments. In response to the defense request for production of evidence, the government responded that it 'there is currently no evidence supporting a compromise of sensitive compartmented information (SCI).' |

On December 2, 2011, the defense filed a request for the production of 48 witnesses for the Article 32 hearing. The government responded to the defense's request on December 7, 2011. In the government's response, it opposed the presence of all defense requested witness (with the exception of ten witnesses who were also on the government's witness list)...The defense filed a request to compel the production of the witnesses on December 8, 2011. The Investigating Officer will consider the government and defense requests, and make a ruling sometime later this week. |

Regarding Defense requested witness, an agent involved with Department of State and FBI investigation on original 7 July 2010 prosecution witness list, but denied:
One agent that the defense requested as a witness on Dec. 2, 2011 for Bradley Manning's Article 32 Pretrial Hearing was on the prosecution's original government witness list dated Jul 7, 2010. 'The defense has requested the attendance of XXXXXXXXXX [See Defense's Dec. 2, 2011 Request for Witnesses (PDF)] in order to provide the Investigating Officer with testimony concerning the joint investigations being conducted by both the Department of State and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Notable XXXXXXXXXX was on the original government's witness list filed on 7 July 2010. According to the government's memo dated 7 December 2011, the other agents 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX can provide the needed testimony.' Their testimony, however, will in large part be hearsay evidence about what other agents have done on the case and what witnesses have told these other case agents[_]
[_]
[Regarding defense request for Key Leaders of 2nd Brigade Combat Team:]
2.) [_] in its response to the defense witness request, the government states that the defense's proffered testimony regarding the total breakdown in command and control within the S-2 Section and the multiple failures by the unit to take basic steps in response to clear mental health issues being suffered by PFC Manning is somehow 'not relevant to the Article 32 investigation and will only serve to distract from the relevant issues' The government cites to RCM 405(a) Inexplicably, the government ignores R.C.M. 405(f) and controlling case law which clearly states an accused has the right to present evidence in defense, mitigation, and extenuation at the Article 32. See R.C.M. 405(f) (stating an accused has the right to present evidence in defense, mitigation, and extenuation); Article 32(b), Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) (stating an accused may 'present anything he may desire in his own behalf either in defense or mitigation, and the investigation officer shall examine available witnesses, requested...'); United States v. Garcia,59 M.J. 447,451 (C.A.A.F. 2004)(ruling that an accused has the right to present anything he may desire in his own behalf at an Article 32 in defense or mitigation). Each of the above requested witnesses will have relevant and independent information of the events that transpired, and all of these witnesses should be produced in order to accomplish the purposes of the investigation. Simply reading the sworn statements of some of these witnesses and hearing from a few others will not allow either party or the Investigating Officer to explore the relevant information. The listed witnesses need to be questioned personally and individually about what they saw, heard, and experienced if there is to be a thorough and impartial investigation. (Footnote: It is troubling that in the government's response dated 7 December 2011, it objects to every listed witness by the defense that is not also on the government's list. The government does not seem to be interested at all in providing a thorough and impartial investigation. The government indicates that it is going to go to the expense and trouble of bringing two civilian witnesses and other military witnesses from multiple duty locations in the United States and overseas, and yet the government claims that it is too costly and troublesome to bring any of the defense requested witnesses. Such a position defies logic and common sense.)

[Regarding defense request for Key Members of 2nd Brigade Combat Team's S-2 Section:]
In its response to the defense witness request for relevant S-2 section witnesses [WHO IS THIS (PLURAL)?], the government states that the testimony of these witnesses is somehow 'not relevant to the Article 32 investigation and will only serve to distract from the relevant issues.' The government also opines that the breakdown in command and control, the decision to deploy PFC Manning, and the decision to not suspend his security clearance earlier 'is not relevant to the Article 32 Investigation and will only serve to distract from the relevant issues.' The government cites to R.C.M. 405(a). Again, the government ignores R.C.M. 405(0 and controlling case law which clearly states an accused has the right to present evidence in defense, mitigation, and extenuation at the Article 32. See R.C.M. 405(0 (stating an accused has the right to present evidence in defense, mitigation, and extenuation); Article 32(b), Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) (stating an accused may 'present anything he may desire in his own behalf either in defense or mitigation, and the investigation officer shall examine available witnesses requested...'); United States v. Garcia,59 M.J. 447,451 (C.A.A.F. 2004)(ruling that an accused has the right to present anything he may desire in his own behalf at an Article 32 in defense or mitigation)

Regarding defenses request for Mental Health Providers:
The government states the testimony of these mental health providers 'is not relevant to the Article 32 investigation and will only serve to distract from the relevant issues.' Additionally, the government points to the fact that a R.C.M.706 board concluded that 'PFC Manning did not have a severe mental disease or defect at the time of the alleged criminal conduct that resulted in him being unable to appreciate the nature and quality or wrongfulness of his conduct' as a basis to ignore any mental health testimony. Such a position is indefensible. The fact PFC Manning did not have a 'severe mental disease or defect' only indicates that he does not have a basis to claim an insanity defense. Such a conclusion does not speak to any diminished capacity or mitigating and extenuating circumstances[_]

[Original Classification Authorities (OSA)]
2.) The government objected to the defense request for any of these witnesses. The government, without any justification, requested that you find the requested witness were not reasonably available given the importance of their respective position. The government seems to argue that in matters of justice, if you have too important of a position, you should not be bothered. Military justice should not be controlled by the importance of your duty position. Each individual took the time to provide an unsworn affidavit. The defense should be provided with the opportunity to examine these witnesses at the Article 32 hearing[_]
[_]
[Current and Former Members of the US Government and Article 37]
1.) ...Each of these witnesses has provided statements that contradict those govern by the OCA witnesses regarding the alleged damage caused by the unauthorized disclosures. Additionally each of these witnesses is relevant in order to inquire into the issues of unlawful command influence and unlawful pretrial punishment in violation of Articles 13 and Article 37 of the UCMJ[_]
[_]
3.) The defense objects to the witnesses not being produced at the Article 32 based solely on the determination by the government that they are too important to be made available. Assuming the witnesses are not produced, the defense will request a deposition of these witnesses if charges are referred, pursuant to RCM 702 and the holding in United States v. Chuculate, 5 MJ 143 (CMA 1978).

[Mental Health Providers at the Quantico Confinement Facility:]
1.) [_]Each of these witnesses has provided statements that would support the fact PFC Manning was subjected to unlawful pretrial punishment under Article 13 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice
[_]
2.) The government objects to the defense request, stating that the alleged unlawful pretrial punishment is not relevant at the Article 32 investigation and will only serve to distract from the relevant issues. Whether PFC Manning was unlawfully punished prior to trial is a relevant matter for you to consider. The facts of his unlawful pretrial punishment is appropriate information for you to consider in forming your recommendations to the convening authority. The issue is also important for the integrity of the military justice |

Earlier today, Colonel Carl R. Coffman Jr., denied the defense's request to conduct oral depositions of nine essential witnesses. These same witnesses were requested by the defense at the Article 32 hearing, but denied by Lieutenant Colonel Paul Almanza. Each of the requested witnesses would have testified concerning whether the charged information was or was not classified and whether there was any harm to national security from this information becoming public.
Colonel Coffman determined that the difficulty, expense, and/or effect on military operations outweighed the significance of the expected testimony. This determination is difficult to comprehend given the nature of the charges against PFC Manning. Today's decision is yet another example of the government improperly impeding the defense's access to essential witnesses.
Based upon Colonel Coffman's decision, the defense intends to renew its request to depose these witnesses with the General Court-Martial Convening Authority, Major General Michael S. Linnington, and, if necessary, with the military judge. |

The Army says Col. Carl Coffman sent his recommendation Wednesday to Maj. Gen. Michael Linnington, commander of the Military District of Washington. Linnington will decide whether to order a trial for Pfc. Bradley Manning.
Coffman concurred with the presiding officer at Manning's preliminary hearing last month. The 24-year-old Crescent, Okla., native faces 22 counts, including aiding the enemy. |

6. In its Ruling on 23 March 2012 (Appellate Exhibit XXXI [31]), the Court ordered the Government to report on whether DIA (among others) had any 'investigative files relevant to this case.' The Government responded on 20 April 2012 that DIA did not have any investigative files relevant to this case. This was surprising to the Defense given that the 12 pages of Brady material that the Government had provided a week earlier revealed that the DIA did have what the Defense would consider 'an investigation' into the alleged leaks. |
