GUILTY

Some charges dealt with money Manafort made lobbying for Ukrainian politicians (he previously failed to register as a foreign agent). Manafort moved $30 million from foreign shell companies into the US — but didn’t disclose this income on his tax forms, pay taxes on it, or fill out legally required disclosures. For these charges, he was convicted of five tax charges and one failure to declare foreign accounts.

Other charges were about what Manafort did once he lost his Ukrainian income. He tried to conjure up more cash via bank fraud. He was convicted of two counts of bank fraud.

The jury couldn’t agree on 10 other counts — three more failure to declare foreign accounts charges, and two more bank fraud charges, and five bank fraud conspiracy charges.

Mueller’s team has charged Manafort with seven other counts that weren’t part of this Virginia trial at all — they were brought separately in Washington, DC, and will be the focus of a trial scheduled to begin September 17.
