I'm skeptical that they retry...Manafort has one conviction

in the books, that he'll probably get 5-10 years for; the 2nd trial is looming & some of those charges should be slam dunks.
The DC court likely won't be as favorable as the VA (judge) - that's why manafort wanted the tax & bank fraud trial separated & held in that state...
My guess is the prosecution takes their VA convictions and moves on.
