Chelsea  Manning poses for a photo wearing a wig and lipstick.  AP  <\/p>\n<p>    The Associated Press is reporting that the U.S. Department of    Defense is in the process of trying to transfer Chelsea Manning    to a civilian prison, where the convicted whistleblower would    be able to receive hormone therapy to aid her gender    reassignment.  <\/p>\n<p>    The news agency says top brass from the U.S. Department of    Defense have been working out the details with civil agencies    because American military prisons do not offer hormone    treatment to transgender inmates.  <\/p>\n<p>    No confirmations have been forthcoming, however.  <\/p>\n<p>    No decision to transfer Pvt. Manning to a civilian detention    facility has been made, said Pentagon press secretary Rear    Adm. John Kirby in a statement.  <\/p>\n<p>    Any such decision will, of course, properly balance the    soldiers medical needs with our obligation to ensure she    remains behind bars.  <\/p>\n<p>    The former intelligence analyst is serving a 35-year prison    sentence. Manning was found guilty in August of violating the    Espionage Act after she admitted to providing WikiLeaks with    more than 700,000 military and U.S. State Department cables in    2009 and 2010.  <\/p>\n<p>    [AP]  <\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>Excerpt from:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/time.com\/98856\/chelse-manning-civilian-prison-hormone-treatment\" title=\"Chelsea Manning Could Be Getting a Transfer to Civilian Prison\">Chelsea Manning Could Be Getting a Transfer to Civilian Prison<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> U.S. Military In this undated file photo provided by the U.S<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[49],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21268","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-chelsea-manning"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21268"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21268"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21268\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21268"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21268"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21268"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
