Late on Sunday, investigator David Shaver testified that he found more than 10,000 diplomatic cables and other sensitive information on one computer used by Private First Class Bradley Manning.
On another computer used by the private, Shaver said, he found evidence that someone had been searching online for information on WikiLeaks, where the classified material eventually surfaced.

They’ve been pressing the government to explain why Manning’s supervisors trusted him with sensitive information even after his confrontations with those he worked with in Baghdad.
The hearing will determine whether Manning faces a court martial.
