Manafort Sentence Out (Original Post)

Mar 2019
OP
bearsfootball516
(6,377 posts)1. Basically, he'll be in jail for about 7 1/2 years.
mucifer
(23,531 posts)2. 7 years all together
90 months. Plus he may face state charges.
Sanity Claws
(21,846 posts)3. So 43 additional months
Combined with the other sentence, a grand total of 90 months or 7.5 years.
stopbush
(24,396 posts)4. So an additional 3.5 years, minus the 9 months already served.
Equals 6 years, 9 months total for both trials combined.
triron
(21,999 posts)6. I don't think he gets the 9 months twice.
stopbush
(24,396 posts)9. The legal eagles on MSNBC are now saying it adds up to 6 years, 9 months.
watoos
(7,142 posts)7. I said 6 years,
was hoping it would be in addition to the 47 months.
Lots of pressure on that judge from the right.
Pantagruel
(2,580 posts)8. Not nearly enough
In fact, since he didn't roll over on Trump and the Russians he probably will survive prison. He made the right choice to minimize the sentence and guarantee survivability.
KatyMan
(4,190 posts)10. Crime obviously pays
If you're a rich white guy. 7 years in prison is no cakewalk, I know, but a traitor to this country like him shouldn't ever see the light of day again and all of his assets should be seized.
