Prosecutors argue documents prove that Manafort willfully committed bank and tax fraud.

The trial against former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort was filled with detailed accounting records and a star witness whose credibility is in question. Prosecutors argue documents prove that Manafort willfully committed bank and tax fraud. The defense never called a witness, claiming the evidence points to clerical mistakes. William Brangham joins Amna Nawaz to break it down.
