Judge denies Manafort attempt to dismiss money laundering charge

A federal judge on Friday rejected former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort's motion to dismiss a money laundering charge against him.
U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson denied the motion in a court filing.
Manafort, who is facing numerous charges related to financial crimes, was sent to jail earlier this month after Special Counsel Robert Mueller accused him of witness tampering.
One of the charges against Manafort is that he violated the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) in connection to his work for the government of Ukraine. Anyone advocating on behalf — or to the benefit of — a foreign government or official must register with the Justice Department. Manafort did not register at the time, but did so retroactively last year.

LOL! Money Laundering can be state charges as well.
LOL. Keep sending them folks. Add a little monopoly money in the box.
