The ex-US Army intelligence analyst, who was jailed for espionage, told the judge she 'will accept whatever you bring upon me'.

US whistleblower Chelsea Manning has been jailed for contempt of court after refusing to give evidence to a grand jury investigation into WikiLeaks.

Sending her to a federal prison on Friday, US District Judge Claude Hilton said she will remain behind bars until she testifies, or until the grand jury finishes its inquiry.Manning, 31, has said she objects to the secrecy of the grand jury process, and that she already revealed everything she knows at her court martial.

Her lawyers had asked that she be sent to home confinement instead of the jail, because of medical complications she faces.The judge said US Marshals can handle her treatment needs.More from Chelsea Manning

i do not understand why private bradley manning was allowed out of jail and wy the state paid for his attempted change of identity. i say attempted because we all know who he is.

He deserves everything he gets!

catsnj If 'IT' is put in a mens cellblock, it will be like a honeymoon.

Does he still have a tally whacker?

Nige1919 Will it come back out as Bradley?

Very brave. She's some set of balls on her

We should all be fighting to get this person off, not making fun. Your government got away with far too much before Chelsea exposed the lies and horrible truths about what the USA was doing in Iraq.

Mens jail, throw HIM to the wolves

Victimisation. US is becoming a rogue state.

Life aint easy for a boy named sue
