Wikileaks released a statement condemning the charges that Bradley Manning was found guilty of today, July 30.

Though Manning was acquitted of the most serious charge, aiding the enemy, he was found guilty of 19 other counts.

Wikileaks said that Manning facing so many years in jail (up to 136 years) is “Dangerous national security extremism from the Obama administration.”

Manning leaked over 700,000 classified military documents to Wikileaks, which made them public online and through several news outlets. 

Sentencing for Manning is happening tomorrow, July 31, at 9:30 a.m. EDT.
