Update at 10:18 a.m. ET. 35 Years:

Army Pfc. Bradley Manning, who was responsible for the largest leak of classified information in U.S. history, was sentenced by a military judge to 35 years in prison Wednesday, . He’ll get about 3 1/2 years credit for time he’s already spent behind bars.

More details (added at 10:30 a.m. ET):

— Manning is also to be dishonorably discharged.

— The maximum sentence possible was 90 years.

— Prosecutors had asked that he be given 60 years.

— Manning’s defense asked for a 25-year sentence.

— Manning’s lawyer plans to speak to the news media at 1:30 p.m. ET.

Also: “Manning’s sentence will automatically be sent to the Army Court of Criminal Appeals,”. “Before the next phase can begin, the entire court-martial proceedings must be turned into an official transcript, which both the defense and prosecution, as well as the judge, must approve; that process is expected to take considerable time. Pretrial hearings started in 2012, and the trial itself began in early June.”
