Bradley Manning will make a rare statement before his defense finishes arguments in his sentencing hearing next week, his lawyers said Friday.
The 25-year-old faces up to 90 years in prison for the largest leak of classified government information in US history. Manning did not make a statement at his trial.
Defense attorney David Coombs said Manning will give a statement Wednesday. The defense team is set to begin presenting evidence Monday.The former military intelligence analyst gave more than 700,000 documents and some battlefield video to the anti-secrecy website WikiLeaks while working in Iraq. He was convicted last month of 20 counts, including federal Espionage Act violations and theft.
