Paul ManaFraud jury deliberations

I'm stuck at work today- any updates ?!

I don't much doubt the verdict, so now it's just a matter of when.

Wonder how any years he'll get.

Also - I don't see a Pardon coming. The Russian Mob and the Mobster in the WH can't have ManaFraud talking about all that money laundering. So he either keeps a clamp on his mouth or he'll be offed to keep him quiet forever. The threat of gutting his wife and daughters should keep him sufficiently quiet.

1. Nothing yet. I follow several reporters who have been tweeting about the trial.

One just tweeted a few minutes ago that there is still no news.

6. Do we know if the jury needs to complete a questionaire on each of the charges?

The last time I sat on a federal trial, we had about a 20 page questionaire we needed to respond to...and that was only for 3 charges.

11. It's a complicated case with lots of documentary evidence

I hope the jury takes its time deliberating and gets to a verdict that all of them feel good about. Then I hope that Paul Manafort goes to prison for the rest of his natural life.
