Summary
“That is not a basis for a lower sentence, but rather a more severe one.”It’s now up to Ellis to decide how much time Manafort will spend in prison, and legal experts say he’s likely to impose a sentence that’s below the guidelines.Gene Rossi, who worked as a federal prosecutor in the Eastern District of Virginia and tried seven cases before Ellis, expects Manafort to get seven to 10 years in prison."If I'm going to engage in tasseography, the Victorian-era practice of reading tea leaves, I think Judge Ellis will show a relative amount of compassion for Paul Manafort,” he said.
