Manafort expresses remorse while awaiting second round of sentencing

Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort on Wednesday expressed remorse for his criminal conduct and apologized to loved ones and others who have been hurt by his actions.

“I am sorry for what I have done and for all of the activities that have gotten us here today,” Manafort said in remarks to a federal judge in Washington, D.C., who is weighing whether he should face more time in prison.

“I know that it was my conduct that brought me here today,” Manafort, wearing a suit and seated in a wheelchair, said in the packed and quiet courtroom. “For that, I am remorseful.”

Manafort is in federal court to be sentenced for two conspiracy charges he pleaded guilty to in connection with special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation.
