Donald Trump's former campaign chairman pleads not guilty to 16 new felony fraud charges after he is led past a throng of press and onlookers.
President Donald Trump’s former campaign chairman Paul Manafort was led shuffling into a Manhattan courtroom Thursday before a drove of reporters and bystanders, including a person who shouted “traitor.”
It was the first time he has been seen in public since his last sentencing in March. He is already serving more than seven years in prison for a variety of federal charges, including tax and bank fraud, and for hiding his foreign lobbying connections. Manafort pleaded not guilty in his appearance Thursday in New York State Supreme Court to the charges brought by the Manhattan district attorney’s office. Even if Trump pardons his former campaign chairman on federal charges, any state convictions will remain. His attorneys are arguing that the charges mirror earlier convictions, amounting to a violation of double jeopardy protections.
