A military judge has ordered prosecutors to hand over key documents to attorneys for the accused U.S. Army whistleblower Bradley Manning. On Monday, Judge Denise Lind ruled the government must share “damage assessment” reports that evaluated the impact of the publication of government diplomatic cables that Manning is accused of providing to WikiLeaks. Manning’s attorneys had filed the request after accusing prosecutors of withholding information that could help Manning’s case. News reports have suggested internal government reviews have found the leak caused minimal damage, contradicting prosecutors’ contention that Manning harmed national security and aided U.S. foes. In a statement, the Bradley Manning Support Network said: “Any ruling in favor of the truth is a victory for Bradley Manning, because the government’s strategy of abuse, obfuscation and outright deception simply won’t stand the light of day.”
