CNN: Manaforts Son-In-Law Gave Info, Documents To DOJ Investigators

Paul Manafort’s son-in-law Jeffrey Yohai, who has partnered with Manafort on real estate deals, met with Justice Department investigators more than two months ago, CNN reported late Thursday.

CNN reported, citing two unnamed sources familiar with the matter, that Yohai met with federal investigators recently. According to one of the sources CNN cited, Yohai gave the investigators information and documents.

According to the report, investigators were “seeking cooperation related to the federal investigation into Manafort for possible money laundering or tax violations in his business dealings with pro-Russia parties in Ukraine.”

Jason Maloni, a spokesman for Manafort, declined to comment to CNN, as did an attorney for Yohai, the FBI and the office of Robert Mueller, the special counsel overseeing the federal investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.
