Judge Amy Berman Jackson is outlining how she will sentence Paul Manafort. President Trump's former campaign chairman faces a maximum of 10 years in prison. Follow live updates
— who can sentence Paul Manafort to a maximum of 10 years today — just outlined how she is sentencing Manafort for two charges today.
Manafort's lawyers asked that his sentence in DC run alongside his sentence in Virginia, instead of stacking the two sentences consecutively. Manafort pleaded guilty to his crimes as a part of a cooperation agreement. He is again in a wheelchair, but he's wearing a suit this time, unlike his last sentencing last week. Manafort isn't under the same condition that Judge T.S. Ellis set, where he was forced to keep the inmate scrubs on when there was no jury around.
"I love him very much," she wrote. She attended nearly all of his major court hearings and his three-week criminal trial in summer 2018 for financial fraud, in which he was first convicted.
