President Barack Obama has commuted the sentence of Chelsea Manning and pardoned retired four-star Marine Gen. James Cartwright.<http://www.cnn.com/2017/01/17/politics/chelsea-manning-sentence-commuted/index.html>

Manning was convicted of stealing and disseminating 750,000 pages of documents and videos to WikiLeaks.

Cartwright is a former vice chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff. He pleaded guilty in October to a single charge of making false statements to federal investigators in 2012 about leaking to journalists top-secret information on US efforts to cripple Iran's nuclear program.
