Manafort Federal Sentencing Finalized; New State Indictment Released
Judge Amy Berman Jackson sentenced him to 60 months on the first count, running concurrently to 30 months of the 47-month sentence imposed in his Virginia case last week.
She also sentenced him to 13 months on the witness tampering count to be served consecutively with the count one sentence and his Virginia sentence.
The combined sentences of 90 months amount to seven-and-a-half years.
The judge also ordered Manafort to pay one-time restitution of $6.16 million to the Internal Revenue Service, the same amount he was sentenced to pay in the Virginia case.
After he was sentenced in DC for the last of his federal convictions, The New York state District Attorney's office unsealed an indictment of Paul Manafort, charging him with residential mortgage fraud and other New York state crimes "which strike at the heart of New York's sovereign interests."
