On August 21, 2013 The Sparrow Project partnered with Jeff Wirth of Burning Hearts Media to produce Alexa O'Brien's exclusive interview with David Coombs, lead civilian counsel for Private First Class Manning. An excerpt of this interview aired that afternoon on Huffpost Live and was embedded on Huffington Post. The next morning, 40 minutes of this interview aired on Democracy Now!. The following is Alexa's interview with David in its entirety available for embed or download. We welcome bloggers and media outlets to use this footage as it is the only comprehensive long-form interview with Manning's counsel and sheds an important light on one of the most historic and heartbreaking cases of whistleblower prosecution to date.

Please note that this was filmed before Chelsea made her request to be referred to as Chelsea. It was filmed a few hours after the trial ended.

It's long but very interesting. The questions are very thoughtful and you can tell Coombs cares a lot about Chelsea as a person. This is a very authoritative video.

Write to Chelsea ❤ (Envelope must say Bradley per the military if you want the letter delivered but in the letter itself, please use Chelsea):
