Prosecutors suspect Paul Manafort might be trying to secretly claw back about a million dollars he agreed to hand over to the government for his financial crimes — and he could be using the same type of shell company at the core of his legal problems to fake a loan.

A mysterious shell company named Woodlawn LLC — which formed in the middle of special cousel Robert Mueller's investigation into Manafort in August 2017 — claimed in court that it deserves $1 million from Manafort's forfeiture proceeding. The company says Manafort, who was Donald Trump's presidential campaign chairman, still owes that amount to pay back a 2017 mortgage loan.

Woodlawn has only been affiliated with"a manager who apparently resigned shortly after verifying the initial petition and the company's lawyer who subsequently took over that function." The company has no address of its own.11 looming questions now that Mueller's investigation is overThe Justice Department says it needs to seek evidence about Woodlawn before it can determine what the company may be owed.

*o*

Same as it ever was!!!

Send him to real prison! He no good and doesn’t deserve the prison he going to.

I heard from a fella who lived next door to this dude who used to watch all sorts of stuff on telly and read all the news about all that diff that this guy did and he said it was probably not real because he heard it from a friend of a friend of a CNN follower Toss toss splat

AltSpockResists This is what happens when a defendant is given the proverbial white man’s privilege, slap on the wrist. These people give the middle finge to the law. Consequences anyone? Oh, that’s right whitemaleprivilege nothing. sickofthisshit

Something about a leopard and his spots....?

He needs to be poor for the rest of his life.

Corn fakers !!

Once you've lived a blameless life, you'll always remain blameless.

Some people just think they are so very smart.

let s get mastermind as well.

Leave him alone! He's trying to continue his 'Blameless life'! :p lol

Where is Trump? It’s been about 19 hours. Will he make a remark about tonight’s rerun of SNL?

The man never learns if this is true. Lock him up forever.

Whats wrong with Manafort trying to get his million back? You and I would be doing the same thing...

Give him life!

Precision Collision Russian collusion Asian Collision potato Collision Russian collusion Russian collusion here Russian collusion there CNN Russian collusion everywhere Russian collusion Russian collusion Russia Russia collusion collusion Russian collusion Russia collusion

Maybe he was Russian collusion

washingtonpost nytimes maddow NicolleDWallace wolfblitzer Manafort could get more time if it is proven that he was trying to get back 1 million from the government that he forfeited for his financial crimes. At his core Manafort is crook!

Sh1thole network never quotes any sources. There are none. Destroys the narrative. That's why highest rated show is at no 23. Fake news doesn't rate well.

Swalwell and schiff now need to tell the American people what the information in plain sight is. If not they are unfit to sit in Congress and should resign. Both are serial liars and have done it on air repeatedly for the last two years. It's called accountability.

Anyone check to see if he’s using a shell company to repay the Judge Ellis?

Got to say this is such a bad ass move 😃

Formam in avaritia

Might be isn’t news worthy!

MuellerReport MuellersReport INVESTIGATIONS (( OKAY NO RUSSIAN COLLUSION )) BUT WHY CAN'T THEY INDICT THE REAL GUILTY PARTY CNN ABC CBS NBC MSNBC **NAMES HILLARY CLINTON & OBAMA ALONG WITH COMEY=LORETTA LYNCH & SO ON!!! THAT SET ALL OF THE HOAX IN MOTION!!!

Takes big go-nads to do that but..no surprise here!

Smh ...

Lol....I think this is more funny 😄 then that!!!! Still pathetic

Whomp, Whomp, Whomp...and fake news trying g really hard to keep ratings up. LOL

He’s the best freemanafort

Mohammed Gharib: ( And kill them wherever you find them ) ...

We should find what really goes with Islamic radicals. CNN should report and investigate that incident -

Exorcism

😂

Since Mueller report was a bust...now back to Manafort...the gift that keeps on giving.

Thing is, what good is it going to do him?

lies.

CNN Execs and On Air Talking Heads are meeting to figure out what they do now that Mueller is done and Trump is cleared of their invented crimes. They will have new focus for destroying America since they have no chance of ever being considered a true news agency - Enquirer ?

From jail? He’s doing this from solitary? Or is he free. The judges really screwed up.

Money its a hell of a drug

Incorrigible. A molecular criminal.A true sociopath.

AND just how would CNN know any of this? Ohh--Ohh 'expert, un-named source' A text from a girlfriends - girlfriend who heard her lover on the phone with some one in a Russian Tea room?

Is this “the Beginning of the end” AGAIN?

Does his jail cell have internet access?

But “blameless life”😑

Is he a genius or a genie?

My Pardon should be right around the Corner!

I'm beyond sick of this snake. This is why the judges made mistakes not hammering him. He will die as a no good criminal. There is no redemption arc for this scumbag

Probably has tons of money hidden away.

Try should make the judge he had pay it off

Wut?

If he was... I guess it ain't a secret anymore...

Manafort is the white crime equivalent of a serial killer.

Boston1775 Did you know: Russia donated over $145,000,000 to the Clinton Foundation Hillary Clinton sold 20% America’s Uranium to Vladimir Putin And Robert Mueller has spent 2 years and millions of dollars investigating Donald Trump for colluding with Russia during the 2016 election? 🤔

No worries, he lived a blameless life!

You guys are too funny. cnnhatingamerica

HE'S JUST PREPARING FOR HIS PARDON!!😎😎😎

In the meantime, CNN has been lying to the public for two years about Russia

Gosh, it never ends.

FAKE NEWS 😎🇺🇸

Some people never learn. Incorrigible criminal.

yawn

I don't believe Bob Mueller officially finished his Investigation, William Barr forced him to shut it, hence, the rushed to conclude. The fact will soon come out.

This cat deserves EVERY single additional charge they can put on him. EVERY one! He should rot in prison.

He will never change.

*might be* cool, cool.

🤣

Why are silent about mass killings of Christians in NIgeria?!

Not a surprise

Blameless Life Continues?

I would to if i was a crook and got a nice jail break of 4 years..

Once a crook, always a crook. Manafort should get more time.

😂😂😂 I mean I have no other reaction at this point..

But is he not the one who led ‘ an otherwise blameless life’?🤔

This guy never quits...he should have gotten a much harsher sentence.

“Blameless life” was it?

Of course.... He does not know how to do it the right way! This is the only way he knows how to conduct himself.... he will not change either...Ever!

He just can’t stop being a crook.

Is there such thing as a crime addiction?

What did the judge say, something about how he had led a blameless life, wasn't it? Hmmm, sounds legit.

I don't know anything about this story, but I know you're probably lying about it.

Once he successful criminal, always one.

A zebra doesn't change it's stripes because it doesn't know it has them.

He will soon be pardoned by president trump when the Russian Trump hoax is shared.

Jeezus he just can’t stop breaking the law!

Prosecutors say Paul Manafort might be trying to secretly get back about $1 million he agreed to give the justice league for his financial crimes and could be using the same type of shell company at the core of his legal problems to do it

It that a toupee? Oh and he wont get it.

Wth? Really?Ughhh!!

The more you learn about this guy...

Why wouldn't he..if he got away with it before..CraftyCriminal...😔😟

He knows he’s going to be pardoned & he knows this fascist regime is above the law.

If you guys did not use might, may, or probably , there would be no cnn.

Yeah because that worked so well for Pauly Walnuts the first time around.

NO

Seems like the type of person that should’ve gotten a lenient sentencing

More propaganda and fake news. CNN is desperate to keep this hoax going or else they are going to lose their last 100 viewers.

sounds just like trump.

Keep deflecting CNN

Good.

A “blameless life”

But 🍄rump is innocent🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

This guy's a piece of work.

Tell that to the judge who gave him the least time cause he is a first time criminal

Zucker has nosedived this network into Earth’s core

CNN is fake news.

Why not? What's he got to lose at this point?

He is obviously expecting a pardon then.

Throw the book at him.

Put that MFer in jail

🤦‍♂️

Crooks never stop crooking...

What’s a con man always a conman 🔥🔥

Ya gotta give him credit.

Oh, but he’s soooooooooooooo sorry 🙄🙄🤦‍♀️
