 Secretly Recorded Audio Leaked of Bradley Manning’s Court StatementFollow @ArunRathMarch 12, 2013, 5:30 pm ET Watch WikiSecrets, FRONTLINE’s investigation into Bradley Manning, Julian Assange and the largest intelligence breach in U.S. history, and The Private Life of Bradley Manning, a profile of the early years of the young soldier now accused of leaking more than half a million classified U.S. government documents.
