Paul Manafort will face Second Trial next month and Prosecutors Have Double The Evidence
Christal Hayes, USA TODAY
Aug. 19, 2018



A jury is still deliberating Paul Manafort's future, but even if he's acquitted, his legal battle will be only halfway over.

The former campaign chairman for President Donald Trump is due back in court in Washington next month for a second trial centered on allegations of lying to the FBI, money laundering and foreign lobbying.

This time prosecutors say they have even more evidence – more than double the amount they showed jurors in Virginia.

In a court filing Thursday, Manafort's attorney said special counsel Robert Mueller's office has supplied "well over 1,000" exhibits for the trial. In the Virginia case, his office had about 400 exhibits.

The trial is set to begin in front of U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson on Sept. 17.

nlightn, prosecutors dismiss (highly unlikely), plea deal/bargain (more likely now), or another criminal
trial on the 10 (possible), are the options after the mistrial on the other 10 where jury couldn't decide.
