Chelsea Manning attempted suicide a second time...

US whistleblower Chelsea Manning attempted suicide for a second time last month, her lawyers say.

Her legal team declined to give details but said prison conditions contributed to her fragile mental state.

Manning was sentenced to 14 days in solitary confinement in September for charges relating to her attempt to kill herself in July.

The transgender army private, born Bradley Manning, is serving a 35-year sentence for espionage.

She was found guilty in September by prison officials in Leavenworth, Kansas, of "conduct which threatens" after her initial suicide attempt. Full story...
