Well, there's certainly a lot of 'nuance' to your characterizations here.

From what I read briefly, 31 months is average for the type of crimes Manafort was being sentenced for.  If so, fair dinkum, I guess.  He may not get similar treatment from Jackson.

Would I be right in thinking you do not have the great good fortune to be an Australian? Just a feeling.

I don't understand the US legal system.

Here in Oz,  sentences are set, such as:  36 months, with say a non parole period of  24 months. That sentence is then further reduced by 1/3, unless the person has been very naughty while inside.


How does it work in the US?  I'm no admirer of the Trump administration. However, I thought 47 months was pretty severe..

How long will Manafort be most likely to spend in prison.?.

Being a Trump supporter I thought he got off easy.

The I think a death penalty for Trumpsters is too lenient.
Dying to live, living to die.
