Chelsea Manning's lawyers and family say they are being kept in the dark about her condition after the former U.S. Army soldier was hospitalized Tuesday.
After what a U.S. official told CNN is believed to be a suicide attempt, Manning was taken to a local hospital near the U.S. Disciplinary Barracks at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, where she is being held for violating the Espionage Act.
Nancy Hollander, Manning's lead defense attorney, said in a statement that the Army is not releasing information to them or her family. Hollander said the Army will only connect them Friday morning at the earliest. "We call on the Army to immediately connect Chelsea Manning to her lawyers and friends who care deeply about her well-being and are profoundly distressed by the complete lack of official communication about Chelsea's current situation," Hollander said.
Manning, 28, is currently serving a 35-year prison sentence for her role in leaking government documents to WikiLeaks.
