The federal investigation of Russia’s interference in the 2016 presidential election went public in a new way Monday, as Paul Manafort, formerly the Donald Trump campaign chairman, was indicted on conspiracy charges and surrendered to the authorities in Washington.
Manafort was seen walking into an FBI office on Monday morning accompanied by a lawyer. Manafort is represented by Kevin Downing, formerly of Miller & Chevalier. Richard Gates III, Manafort’s business partner and protege, was also charged Monday.
