Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort pleaded not guilty to conspiracy, tax and bank fraud charges in an Alexandria, Va., federal courtroom Thursday afternoon.
Judge T.S. Ellis set a trial date for July 10.
Manafort faces a separate federal trial on Sept. 17 on other charges also brought by special counsel Robert Mueller's office in a Washington, D.C., case.
For the Virginia case, Manafort will be fitted with a second electronic monitoring bracelet (he is already wearing one related to the D.C. case) and will be allowed to meet with lawyers, attend church services and make emergency medical trips as needed.
Two, count them TWO, ankle monitors.
I guess that is in case Manafort goes all feral coyote and chews off one of his legs.
The prosecution has between 20 to 25 witnesses ready to testify against Manafort, not to mention all of that evidence that the Mueller team was able to dig up.
I think if you look up the word "fucked" right now there is a picture of Paul Manafort right next to it.
