Oh the horror that a crime is prosecuted. And its because Manafort committed those crimes in that state. Or are people free to go if they commit crimes only in states where they do not live? Except he also has a residence in NY.
Or is your argument that since he is involved in politics we should ignore his criminal activity? Please. And he stole MILLIONS in evaded taxes alone. But sure, a stolen car is SOOOOO much more important.
Given that he's locked up, his threat to public safety is nil. I don't think we should be squandering taxpayer's money on vendettas.

How much money do you think we're talking about? This is open and shut for the state, the feds did all the hard work. State will spend less then 50K prosecuting. And I believe Manafort still has a few million left rattling around.
And is your argument that we should ONLY charge public safety crimes? What nonsense.
Looks like the state of NY thought his newest sentence was too light, and that he might be pardoned.
More importantly.....if you are going to do time the Federal jails are MUCH nicer. You do not want to be in a state prison. And this should be a wakeup call for those thinking Trump will just pardon them.
GREAT! Go after all the lying, cheating SOB's!!! I don't care!!!

Why would Trump want to pardon him?
