Mueller's end around on further obstruction: Filing details on Manafort breach 1 week from today

He's doing the same with Cohen's sentencing report. Both will (at the same time, likely) provide major details on Trump's criminality in a publicly available format.

1. Paul Manafort Sells Florida Mansion To His Wife For The Price Of Two Lattes

Paul Manafort, President Trump’s former campaign chairman, signed a deed on Oct. 25 in his Virginia prison that transferred his five-bedroom mansion in Florida’s Palm Beach Gardens to his wife for $10. The document, witnessed by two members of his legal team and stamped with the seal of a Virginia notary, was filed five days later with the Palm Beach County Clerk.

Manafort and his wife, Kathleen, bought the Florida mansion in 2007 for $1.5 million and renovated it in 2011, according to real estate records. The house, located 15 miles north of Mar-a-Lago where President Trump and his family vacation, was not included in the list of five luxury properties Manafort agreed to forfeit in his September plea deal.

Transferring the property to his wife may not put it beyond the reach of federal prosecutors, said David Pelligrinelli, an expert in real estate transactions. If Mueller’s team doesn’t like it, they could attempt to void the deed, Pelligrinelli said.

“This is a conveyance that’s not arms-length -- in other words, it’s to a relative -- and the deed does not indicate full-value consideration, so they could try to claw it back if they wanted to,” said Pelligrinelli, founder of AFX Corp., a title search company, and president of Active Intel Investigations LLC in Palm Beach, Florida.
