BREAKING: The Special Counsel's Office notified a Federal Court In Virginia that they will seek immunity for up to 5 people to testify under conditions of immunity in the upcoming trial against Paul Manafort

(These people have not been publicly named before in the case.)
"The Special Counsel's Office says they aren't sure if they will call any of the witnesses so they want to file the requests for immunity under seal."
A salient point to be sure. Immunized witnesses for Manafort's trial might simply be there to lay a foundation to prove that Manafort's actions now correspond to his prior bad acts to indicate a pattern of behavior. The other options are tantalizing though
