Paul Manafort Convicted on 8 Counts

After four days of deliberation, the jury convicted Paul Manafort on 8 of 18 felony counts: 5 counts of tax fraud, 2 counts of bank fraud, and 1 count of failure to report foreign bank accounts. Judge Ellis declared a mistrial on the remaining 10 counts. The conviction represented the first trial victory for Special Counsel Mueller's team and exposed Manafort's elaborate scheme to hide millions in income from Ukraine political consulting.
