Paul Manafort’s former son-in-law has reportedly pleaded guilty to federal conspiracy charges and is cooperating with special counsel Robert Mueller.
The Wall Street Journal reported[1] Thursday evening that Jeffrey Yohai admitted to charges relating to real-estate loans.
Citing “people familiar with the matter,” the Journal reported that the plea was made in January and is still under seal with a federal court in California.
According to one of the Journal’s sources, investigators with Mr. Mueller’s team have met with Mr. Yohai....
Mr. Mueller already has charged Mr. Manafort, a former 2016 campaign chairman for President Trump, with tax fraud and bank fraud as part of his wide-ranging probe of Russian attempts to influence the presidential election.
