"FT. MEADE, Maryland – Forensic investigators searching Bradley Manning’s computers and removable media found a full log of the online chats Manning conducted with former hacker Adrian Lamo in which Manning described his alleged leaking of classified information, a government witness revealed during testimony on Saturday.

Investigators also discovered classified information on an SD memory card they found at the Maryland home of Manning’s aunt, Debra Van Alstyne, where he had been living before enlisting in the Army."

------

"Special Agent Mark Mander, with the Army’s Computer Crime Investigative Unit, didn’t go into detail about the chat logs found on Manning’s computer, other than to say that the Army got a copy from Lamo, and “corresponding versions were found on the property collected from Pfc. Manning.”"

edited to add: My previous point stays. If the chat logs aren't authentic, I expect Coombs to bring that up shortly.
