Manning found innocent of aiding enemy, guilty of violating espionage act
http://j.mp/14yUQcJ (Boing Boing)
"Pvt. Bradley Manning was found not guilty of aiding the enemy today,
but convicted on multiple lesser counts, including violating the
Espionage Act."

This was probably the best *possible* outcome for Manning, since his
violation of the espionage act was triggered by the physical act of
copying the data and releasing it. However, the aiding the enemy
charge was far more serious.
