Manafort Trial Thread

Why wasn’t Oleg Deripaska the Russian billionaire indicted in the Manafort witch hunt?
 
3 Missing Men At The Manafort Trial | HuffPost

Jeffrey Yohai – Manafort’s former son-in-law. Given earlier reporting that he was cooperating with federal investigators, Yohai’s absence from the prosecution’s witness list in Alexandria is one of the towering mysteries in the case
Steve Calk — the founder, chairman and CEO of the Federal Savings Bank in Chicago. On Friday, after hours of mysterious delays that scuttled the morning session and kept jurors and spectators in suspense for much of the afternoon, the prosecution called Dennis Raico as its first witness. Raico testified under a grant of immunity about how the bank Calk runs came to give Paul Manafort $16 million of loans — with one of the loans closing shortly after the 2016 presidential election and the other shortly before the 2017 presidential inauguration.
David Fallarino — Manafort’s front office banker at Citizens Bank. Jurors heard testimony on Thursday last week from two of Fallarino’s assistants, who were asked to describe a number of emails Fallarino had sent and received, framing the sort of financial information he needed to receive from Manafort. Earlier in the week, jurors had seen evidence of how Manafort took these emails as instructions showing how to effectively falsify his financial documents to win approval of the loan he desired. On Thursday, jurors also heard from an underwriting supervisor at the bank who processed the Manafort loans Fallarino had recommended.
It’s not clear whether the defense will seek to call Yohai, Calk or Fallarino to testify on Manafort’s behalf, but the evidence introduced in court thus far makes that possibility appear remote. By not procuring testimony from these potential witnesses, the special counsel’s office appears to have accepted some added difficulties in its prosecution of Manafort in order to protect the Department of Justice’s ability to pursue other ongoing inquiries. It’s a fair bet there’s a lot more to come from this story.

The prosecution rests it's case

I guess the thread title was misleading to you. What did you expect BigOrangeTrump, naked pictures and free tickets to the new Black Panther movie?

Why doesn't Manafort call Ole Oleg as a witness? Nevermind, he might spill the beans on Manafort.

Beans have already spilled between those two. Muller hired Oleg for money for a American hostage in Iran. Tell me Hack, is that legal?

Don't cry over spilled beans. Oleg looks like a good witness for Manafort. Tell me cry baby, is that illegal? Can you impeach him for that? You got him now. Lock him up.
 
Any of you idiots think that may be why Mueller hasn't indicted Oleg? He might have to recuse himself if he did. Unless you all think Oleg has ties to Trump there is no reason to recuse himself.

Pretty weak there, try again.
