A lawyer for jailed Army Private Chelsea Manning, previously known as Bradley Manning, says the soldier is doing well at Fort Leavenworth. Attorney David Coombs talked to Manning on Wednesday for the first time since a military judge sentenced Manning to 35 years in prison for leaking classified material to WikiLeaks. One day after the sentencing, Manning announced plans to live as a woman under the name Chelsea Manning. Coombs said: “I am happy to report that she is doing very well … and has already made several friends who accept her for who she is.” Coombs went on to say: “I also told her about how most responsible media have elected to respect her wishes and refer to her by her new name. Chelsea was very happy to hear of these developments.”
