When I opined earlier in the week that Manning was delaying trial because pre-trial means medium security for him, and post means maximum security, I wasn't just making that up. He's agreed to a 16 year sentence outside the most serious charges...so every day he spent in medium security is one day less in max. A smart defense strategy.
