I don’t know. 3 days is less than two hours per count, and that’s not even the time to get organized and decide on the path forward. They haven’t had a bunch of questions for the judge since the initial 4 and haven’t said they’re unable to come to a verdict because of outliers. Seems pretty serious work is going on. Wel’ll see who’s impression is correct soon enough.
Why do you want this guy to be found not guilty? Seems guilty as hell to me.
That is the biggest head scratcher I have here as well. Why would any American who believes in the rule of law be hoping and wishing this horrendous excuse of a human being gets away with his multiple crimes?
Idk. Most people have trouble with their own taxes, not understanding. Let alone all these bank laws and tax laws he was indicted over. This isn’t a murder trial
I dont know for sure. It is a good question. Would it be a mistrial for only that account? If so, if the prosecution got a guilty conviction on a couple others to put manafort in prison for 30 years I’m sure they’d be fine with that.
The judge would render a partial verdict. Because there’s 18 counts here, we could end up with 17 guilty counts and one hung, which would be fine by me.
I know this because I read it on reddit 5 minutes ago.
