The Lobbyist and political consultant Paul Manafort stand for attempted Witness tampering and conspiracy against the United States before the court. The allegations have nothing to do with his work for Trump. It comes to his work for Russia-friendly politicians in the Ukraine. Manafort had announced to cooperate with investigators, but then you apparently lied to. the

Because of conspiracy against the United States, and for Attempts to influence witnesses, must Paul Manafort for several years in prison.
