wikileaks recieved $1 million in donations for bradley mannings's legal defense fund but only donated $15,000 to it ?



"In the last few weeks, after the arrest of Army intelligence analyst Bradley Manning cast a brighter spotlight on Wikileaks, Young has been trying to trace Wikileaks' money flows. On July 17, Wikileaks asked supporters for $200,000 to pay for Mannings' attorneys, even though co-founder Julian Assange said a few days earlier that the organization had already raised $1 million."

" With still no funds by December, the BMSN did go public, resulting in unflattering headlines, like The Washington Post's "WikiLeaks hasn't fulfilled financial-aid pledge for suspect in leaks." (Eventually, the group gave $15,000.) "

" Manning was sentenced in August 2013[5 [ to 35 years in prison ] ] but pursuant to a commutation by President Obama, is scheduled to be released on May 17, 2017.[6][7] "

" Part of the problem may be explained by WikiLeaks' own financial difficulties as a result of Visa, MasterCard and PayPal cutting off its accounts after pressure from the US government. "
