Manafort trial Day 14: Jury 'scared' as it heads home without a verdict
Paul Manafort's trial will stretch into a fourth week, as jurors headed home Friday without reaching a verdict for the second straight day and the judge overseeing the case alluded to "threats" the jury may be receiving.
“I had no idea this case would incite this emotion,” U.S. District Court Judge T.S. Ellis III said in an open court hearing, responding to a motion from seven news organizations, including POLITICO, seeking access to sealed materials related to the trial that would have publicly identified the jurors.
Ellis denied the motion, telling the courtroom that jurors were "scared” and “afraid.” As a result, Ellis said, he didn’t “feel right” releasing the names of the 12-person jury.

The far left is very concerned about a 2005 tax evasion case.
This was so predictable. The far left has gone absolutely apoplectic.
Threatening jurors? Really?
Left wing totalitarianism in action for all to see.
They want the addresses of jurors so they can fuck with the jurors should the left not approve of the verdict.
Wow.
