Tough call. One the one hand, Manafort did all of his crooked tax evasion when he was connected to Hillary and the DNC.
On the other hand, Mueller is a traitor and a crook and anything he succeeds at makes him stronger.
I guess on balance its not guilty.
No I got it. Yours was just the one I posted too.

Yep.
Gee wiz your honor, thanks. That is as clear as mud.

Reasonable doubt is self-explanatory, but if it seems vague, then a dictionary ought to be sufficient.
Yeah, all those used to be called shell companies, which are similar.
Not guilty!!!!!
I am an Enrolled Agent. I have several clients that are required to file the FBAR (Foreign Bank Account Report - also called FinCEN) and form 8938 (Statement of Foreign Financial Assets). The FBAR is filed separate from the personal tax return (1040 series) and is due on the tax return due date (including extensions). Form 8938 is included with the personal tax return. Willful errors on these forms can be serious.
FBAR related penalties:
Failing to file an FBAR can carry a civil penalty of $10,000 for each non-willful violation. But if your violation is found to be willful, the penalty is the greater of $100,000 or 50 percent of the amount in the account for each violation—and each year you didn’t file is a separate violation

I don’t think this is great for the defense. Remember they charged him with over a dozen things. Federal juries have a high conviction rate precisely because the feds like to overcharge to get compromised verdicts.
They could be wanted to convict but one or two are holding out on and the rest are trying to convince them there definition is reasonable doubt is wrong.

Hope the judge said that You just expressed it.

Of the ostrich suit don’t fit, you must acquit ...
REASONABLE DOUBT
n. not being sure of a criminal defendant’s guilt to a moral certainty. Thus, a juror (or judge sitting without a jury) must be convinced of guilt of a crime (or the degree of crime, as murder instead of manslaughter) “beyond a reasonable doubt,” and the jury will be told so by the judge in the jury instructions. However, it is a subjective test since each juror will have to decide if his/her doubt is reasonable.
I once got as far in jury duty as jury selection. The case was an eminent domain case and I could see boxes of rolled up documents in the courtroom. When they failed to call me back I felt as if I had dodged a bullet of boredom.
