A military judge is now deliberating the charges against a soldier who leaked secret US government documents to Wikileaks.
Judge Colonel Denise Lind will rule on the charges against Private Bradley Manning, 25, who was called a "traitor" who betrayed his country by a prosecutor on Thursday.
Private Manning has already pleaded guilty 10 charges out of 21. The BBC reports he could be sentenced to life in prison if convicted of "aiding the enemy", the most serious charge.
Judge Lind will give 24 hours notice before delivering her verdict. The trial began on 3 June.
The BBC reports Private Manning has not denied his role in the leak, and said at a pre-trial hearing in February he disclosed the documents to spark a public debate about US military and foreign policy.
More than 700,000 documents were leaked. Among them were an estimated 250,000 diplomatic cables plus battlefield reports from Afghanistan and Iraq.
Private Manning was arrested in May 2010 in Iraq. He chose trial by a military judge.
