Manafort, like so many other "alleged" criminals, discovers that he doesn't want to go to jail
President Donald Trumps former campaign chairman Paul Manafort is set to ask a federal judge on Friday not to revoke his bail and send him to jail pending trial after Special Counsel Robert Mueller filed new charges of witness tampering last week.
Manafort, whose charges arise from Muellers ongoing investigation into Russias role in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, is expected to plead not guilty to the charges in the latest indictment against him during an arraignment before U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson in Washington.
Manafort has been indicted by Mueller in both Washington and Virginia on a raft of charges including conspiracy against the United States. Jackson could immediately revoke his bail conditions and send Manafort to jail awaiting his trial scheduled for September in the Washington case.
His trial on the related charges in Virginia is set for July 25. Manafort has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
