A US Army investigator said Monday that 10,000 State Department cables found on a computer used by Bradley Manning were apparently not passed on to WikiLeaks because they were in a corrupted file.
Manning, a 24-year-old army private, is accused of giving WikiLeaks a massive cache of US military reports from Iraq and Afghanistan, diplomatic cables from US embassies around the world, Guantanamo detainee assessments and videos of US air strikes.
Shaver also said an additional 100,000 complete State Department cables which had been encoded were found on a computer used by Manning between November 2009, when he was deployed to Iraq, and May 2010, when he was arrested.
The 100,000 cables were present in unallocated space on the device, indicating that the files had been deleted, and while they were found on a machine Manning had used they could not be directly linked to his user profile, he said.

Also the cables found on his computers didn't match the WL leaked ones. That's pretty Wired

I hope that he will get a fair trial but I don't have to point out the fact of that probably not happening considering the situation.

Well to me that is saying that there was more then one leak
Maybe he is just the fall guy. Somebody has to get blame.
So will the real WikiLeak persona please stand up

Why did a private have access to all that info anyway, sounds a little fishy to me
