By Josh Delk - 02/17/18 10:14 AM EST
Special counsel Robert Mueller has reported a new criminal accusation against President Trump's former campaign chairman Paul Manafort.
Mueller's team said in a court filing Friday that it learned of "additional criminal conduct" claims against Manafort, including "a series of bank frauds and bank fraud conspiracies" relating to a mortgage on Manafort's property in Fairfax, Va.
The new criminal accusation came in response to a request from Manafort to reconsider the conditions of his bail. Mueller rejected Manafort's proposed bail package in part over the new criminal conduct claims.
