Most likely true! Instead of 25 tax infringements sticking with 15-30 years each, he'll only get 10 charges at 7 years each.
I've never seen cops not charge someone for other crimes they find as part of an investigation, often there more criminal than the original charge/ crime being investigated. I don't see why people are saying this is special in the Manafort case.. its normal procedure. Hopefully the jury is smart enough to work only with the information presented in the court room, not right of left wing spin in the media.
