JUST IN —> Mueller's office files its list of potential witnesses in Paul Manafort's Virginia trial:
Here's the full court filing (was having a delay in uploading): documentcloud.org/documents/4620…
Of course, Rick Gates is on the list, as is Tad Devine (see: buzzfeednews.com/article/rubycr…). So are, obviously, the five people who are getting use immunity:
One interesting name on the list: Irfan Kirimca. Per his LinkedIn, he is the senior director of ticket operations for the New York Yankees. There are several items in the government's exhibit list relating to Yankees' tickets.
Another name: Darin Evenson. Per his LinkedIn, he's director of customer experience, North America, at Airbnb. Remember that charges against Manafort include allegations relating to one of his properties being listed on Airbnb. businessinsider.com/paul-manafort-…
Another name: Maximillian Katzman. There is a Maximillian Katzman associated with high-end clothing stores in New York. mr-mag.com/alan-katzman-l… ... Recall that Manafort's charges include information about extensive purchases of expensive suits in New York.
Check out this 1996 news brief on the new business being opened by Alan Katzman, Maximillian's father —> nytimes.com/1996/09/17/sty…
Another name on Mueller's list of potential witnesses in the Manafort trial: Joel Maxwell. A Joel Maxwell at Big Picture Solutions in Florida previously featured a Manafort testimonial on the BPS website. His company's abilities appear to match work referenced in the indictment.
Another name: Daniel Opsut. Per his LinkedIn bio, a Daniel Opsut is the longtime controller/CFO at Mercedes-Benz of Alexandria, VA. One of the purchases referenced in Manafort's indictment is the purchase of a Mercedes Benz.
Another name: Michael Regolizio. A Mike Regolizio is the president of New Leaf Landscape Maintenance ("It's time to turn over a new leaf"), and his company's abilities appear to match work referenced in the Manafort indictment.
Alex Trusko, Manafort's former assistant and the person who gave the FBI access to the storage locker, is on Mueller's witness list.
Another name: Michael Welch. I am hoping it's this guy, but I doubt it.
Seriously, though, most of the other names appear to be bankers, CPAs, and real estate industry people in companies associated with Manafort loans, accounts, purchases, or sales.
Among those is Gary Seferian. Per LinkedIn, a Gary Seferian is the SVP / Group Loan Manager - Private Bank at Banc of California. @BuzzFeedNews previously reported on Banc of California, Manafort, and Yohai (his now ex-son-in-law) here: buzzfeednews.com/article/chrisg…
We've known since May that Yohai is cooperating with federal authorities —> buzzfeednews.com/article/chrisg…
OK, that's it for my Manfort Virginia trial prosecution witness list thread. Enjoy! </fin>
