Political consultant and lobbyist Paul Manafort has been sentenced to an additional 43 months in prison, bringing his total sentence up to seven and a half years. Additionally, he was indicted in New York on new charges of residential mortgage fraud.

The last sentence was handed down by District Judge Amy Berman Jackson in Washington on March 13, adding to one given by a different judge in Virginia last week. Manafort will be credited for nine months already spent behind bars with six years and nine months to go.
