Grand Jury Friday: Rackin' 'em up against Manafort

Special counsel Robert Mueller’s team has secured an indictment against a Russian-Ukrainian political consultant who worked with Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort.

Konstantin Kilimnik was named in a superseding indictment on Friday along with Manafort. The new indictment replaces the old one against Manafort and adds charges of witness tampering and obstruction of justice to the slew of charges he already faces.

I believe this is the second superseding indictment.

The indictment alleges that Manafort and Kilimnik “knowingly and intentionally attempted to corruptly persuade” two people “with intent to influence, delay, and prevent the testimony of any person in an official proceeding.”

Mueller’s team, which is investigating potential ties between the presidential campaign of Donald Trump and Russia, has now secured indictments against 20 people. Those include Manafort, Manafort’s aide Rick Gates, Trump’s former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn and Trump campaign aide George Papadopoulos.

The hearing to determine whether Manafort goes to jail to await his trial (as opposed to staying near home with two ankle bracelets that he's been doing) is scheduled for June 15.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
