Bradley Manning to be moved

Because of the trouble caused by being so available to DC and its denizens, the military is moving Bradley Manning from Quantico's Richrad B. Cheney Detention and Abuse Center to Fort Leavenworth.
U.S. officials say the Army private suspected of giving classified data to WikiLeaks is being moved to Fort Leavenworth in Kansas in the wake of international criticism about his treatment during his detention at the Marine Corps base at Quantico, Va.

The officials say an announcement that Army Pfc. Bradley Manning will be moved is expected Wednesday at the Pentagon.
According to Firedoglake, Leavenworth has two facilities
The United States Disciplinary Barracks, the nation’s only maximum security military prison and home of death row; and the new Midwest Joint Regional Correctional Facility, a military prison that holds convicted military members for 5 years or less, as well as those awaiting trial.
Manning should be housed in the latter but there are many in the government who consider the former as too mild for him.
