Manafort Trial Day 4
  • 6 years ago
Former Donald Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort's trial continued Friday. Politico reports, prosecutors advanced their case that the high-flying international political consultant lived a financial double life. The claim, Manafort hid overseas bank accounts from his accountants and lied about the source of large sums he deposited in U.S. banks.
Special counsel Robert Mueller's team claim Manafort concealed and evaded U.S. taxes on millions of dollars. Manafort's defense team has suggested that false statements on his tax returns were understandable oversights by a busy man.
