Former Army intelligence analyst Chelsea Manning was released from jail in Virginia on Thursday more than two months after being arrested for refusing to answer questions before a grand jury about leaking classified information to WikiLeaks. Manning was released after the grand jury’s term expired. She was detained at the William G Truesdale Adult Detention Center in Alexandria, Virginia, for 62 days. In a statement, Manning’s attorneys said she would continue to “refuse to answer questions and will use every available legal defense to prove to [US District Judge Anthony] Trenga that she has just cause for her refusal to give testimony.”
