That's on top of the roughly four-year sentence he received last week in a separate case in Virginia. He was convicted of bank and tax fraud in Virginia, where a judge last week sentenced him to 47 months in prison for tax evasion and other financial crimes. Manafort, centre, in a wheelchair, was also sentenced last week in Alexandria, Va., to four years in prison for bank and tax fraud. Unlike at his sentencing hearing last week, Manafort said he was sorry for his actions, but Jackson then told him his expression of remorse rang hollow. That's a total of 7.5 years in prison, minus credit he is expected to get for nine months already served.
