in alexandria, virginia, and the jury is back for a third day. they are poring over the 18-count indictment. federal prosecutors say manafort failed to pay taxes on millions of dollars in hidden foreign income and he lied on loan applications to obtain millions more to obtain a lavish lifestyle. the criminal trial is the first courtroom test of the russia probe led by the special counsel robert mueller. the case does not involve allegation of russian election interference. peter doocy has more from outside the courthouse in alexandria. peter? >> reporter: the safety of the jury was top of mind for judge ellis who reiterated even at the end of the trial, "the name of the jurors will remain under seal." that is because judge ellis believes jurors would be subjected to threats and he has already been threatened because of his role presiding over the case. the reason that the issue bubbled up to the surface a handful of news outlets, cnn the a.p. and "new york times" filed a motion asking for everything from the trial that is sealed to be unsealed. i

get in last night and could not but i was able to get in this morning and visit her so she is in alexandria detention facility at least for now for this weekend it's a smaller facility than the d.c. jail as respected facility but it's hard to know why the move was made where there was made for medical or other reasons or in response to complaints about the conditions in d.c. she does have arthritis in one of her legs kind of a history of problems with that leg so she sought treatment for that and so far has just received tylenol and nothing else and i think she has also been a little bit frustrated by policy when people are in protective custody they do bad checks every fifteen minutes at night to check on detainee safety and i think sometimes depending on who the guard is you know the lights are turned on every time there's a check and so it's very hard to get proper sleep when you're being woken up every fifteen minutes she's segregated from the general population of the prison facility you know no contact really with outside people besides her lawyers and occasional phone calls and when

now this sudden delay today, peter doocy is live at the federal courthouse in alexandria, virginia with the latest. what is it all about, peter? >> we have no idea why, but the judge delayed the start of today's proceedings by four hours. and this is a judge that is such a stickler for a speedy trial that he often snaps at the mueller team if he thinks they are dragging things out. the mueller team complained about the judge with emotion, protesting a comment that he made yesterday, where he urged the special counsel's lawyers not to focus so much on loans that paul manafort was denied, he wanted them to focus on loans that he got. the mueller team didn't think it was fair, they wrote in the motion, the court's suggestion that the government was unnecessarily spending time on a loan that manafort did not receive undermines the well-established law on conspiracy, undercuts the charge in count 28, and is likely to confuse and mislead the jury. the mueller team wants the judge to do the same thing yesterday, explain that he may have made a mistake to the jury. but they wanted to it happen

to get in last night and could not but is able to get in this morning and visit her so she is in alexandria detention facility. at least for now for this weekend and but i'm unaware of what the reasons were for the transfer and i'm trying to find that out right now i could be possible that is a different category of prison. it's really not the united states federal government uses local jails to house their pretrial detainees and so the marshal service has the ability to move people around if they want i would expect to have been notified but it's a it's a smaller facility than the d.c. jail is and it's a you know it's a respected facility but it's it's hard to know why the move was made whether was made for medical or other reasons or in response to complaints about the conditions in d.c. he let's talk about maria's house the house being concerns about her health conditions what kind of conditions has has been facing in prison. well i mean i think her main complaint from my visits with her is that she does have arthritis in one of her legs kind of a history of problems with that leg and i

first, live in alexandria, virginia, for the verdict of paul manafort. >>

peter doocy is live outside the courtroom in alexandria, virginia.airs, far afield from where they started in this. >> right, harris. manafort defense team got robert gates to admit to one extramarital affair on the stand yesterday. and today during cross-examination, they asked him if he ever told the special counsel's office about four extramarital affairs. well, when manafort lawyer said that, the mueller team mead jumpeimmediately jumped upd objected. took responsibility for many mistakes he made he said it wasn't the time for that the manafort team was trying to catch him in a lie after the mueller team worked hard this morning to establish that they never promised rick gates anything for his cooperation and that if he lies they will rip up his plea agreement which could mean more than 100 years in jail. the manafort defense team got rick gates to testify back in 2014 when the fbi interviewed him about a probe they were doing concerning the former ukrainian president, gates told them all about accounts that he opened up in cyprus that are now at

let's go to peter doocy in alexandria, virginia. >> paul manafort's bookkeeper has been on the stands most of the day. she testified that not only did she not know about any foreign accounts controlled by manafort that he's accounts in the u.s. were drying up. she was asked did there come a time in 2016 when mr. manafort had trouble paying his bills. she replied yes. so as the mueller team argues that manafort bank rolled a lavish lifestyle using accounts in cypress that were hidden from the irs, his booker said she never saw money that indicated that he had enough to cover expenses in the states. the special counsel says they still plan to call rick gates to testify by the end of next week. he's the star because he's the only one that can speak as to how and why manafort's business operated the way that they did. he flipped and agreed to cooperate with the mueller team after pleading guilty to lying to the fbi at the end of last year. that is something that the manafort defense lawyers says makes him untrustworthy to a jury. trish?
