Well, that would explain why he never told them, but not why nobody else did.

Well, I’d imagine that the Senate reports put Obama in a good position to shake the banksters down for some fairly sizeable campaign donations at least.

‘Official records kept at the brig, released recently by Manning’s lawyer, reveal that between last August and January military psychiatrists made no fewer than 16 recommendations to their military commanders that Manning should be taken off the PoI restrictions because he was no threat to himself.’

Also apparently Physicians for Human Rights think that psychiatrists are effectively legitimising Manning’s treatment by continuing to make these evaluations.

I’m finding it difficult to imagine why you’d want to stop someone from telling a defendant what they were alleged to have said unless you were planning to make stuff up in order to convict them more easily.
What’s the supposed justification? And what safeguards – if any – are there to prevent this from happening?
