    I know Mueller has one other trial scheduled and another one planned for Manafort, but hope to hell they make Ellis retry on the 10 charges fucked up with his tampering.

        Judge Ellis was outrageous & out of line...biasing jurors against Ukrainian victims of #manafort by telling them that his Jewish ancestors were "hated by Ukraians." 1. Untrue 2. WHY tell jurors his distorted version of history?

        Ellis needs to be replaced. Didn't let jurors read piles of docs for one thing. Then he interjected way too much. Who is in charge of judicial oversight?

        Exactly my thoughts. Plus, Judge rushed this through and jury didn't completely understand exhibits. He should have let the prosecution publish the documents during the trial.

        I swear it seems like Judge Ellis was pushing for a mistrial & got it Prioritizing Expediency over Justice is Injustice

        HOW did he let the jury just roam free to be exposed to Trump's mad ravings?

        My impulse is to agree with you, but won't change sentence for Pauly. But you are right. The verdicts make no sense, and Ellis is responsible. Not allowing govt. to publish exhibits contemporaneously with testimony caused longer delibration and mistrial on 10 counts.

        I'd like to hear from the jurors where they were on the 10 charges, and why they couldn't reach consensus, before making a decision on whether to re-try. As for Judge Ellis, would like to see him retire - he deserves no further opportunities to adversely impact trials.

        And actually let the prosecution publish the evidence with their arguments rather than making the jury play Memory

        I’m not sure he didn’t ultimately help the prosecution. The reason I say this is the defense obviously cannot ever complain about Manafort not getting a fair trial. Not when the judge favored the defense so obviously.
