Banker gets 1 year in prison in Manafort loan scheme
NEW YORK (AP) — A Chicago banker was sentenced on Monday to a year in prison for his conviction in a scheme to make $16 million in loans to Paul Manafort to gain influence in the Trump administration.
Manafort served as a campaign manager to former President Donald Trump for a key stretch from June to early August 2016.
The banker, Stephen Calk, was convicted last year on financial institution bribery and conspiracy charges in Manhattan federal court.
Before hearing the sentence, the 57-year-old Calk told the judge that the case has left his life "in shambles."
