Manafort will get credit for time served, as usual. But, how do you figure he's going to cut his time by more than 50% for good behavior Mags? I don't think that's possible.
Anyway, it will be interesting to see what sentence Manafort receives next week from Judge Jackson in DC for his felony conspiracy convictions.
Jackson has the discretion to sentence him up to 5 years each on the two convictions. She also has the discretion to make the time served concurrent with the Virginia sentence or consecutive. So, Manafort could end up being sentenced up to 14 years.
Personally, I don't think it's likely that Manafort is going to walk out of prison without serving at least 5 years behind bars given the seriousness and volume of his crimes.
