which brings his combined sentence so far to about 7 1/2 years. in court today manafort did what he had failed to do last week. he expressed regret for his actions. and we quote. "i want to say to you now that i am sorry for what i've done. i accept the responsibility for the acts that have caused me to be here today. i will be 70 years old in a few weeks. my wife is 66 years old. i am her primary caregiver. please let my wife and i be together." before pronouncing her sentence judge amy berman jackson noted the magnitude of his crimes, his lies to investigators in violation of his plea deal and his apparent lack of remorse. "saying i'm sorry i got caught is not an inspiring plea for leniency." she also criticized his legal team adding, "the no-collusion refrain that runs through the entire defense memorandum is, similarly, unrelated to the matters at hand. the no-collusion mantra is simply a non sequitur that doesn't bear on the question of the appropriate sentence." again, that didn't stop
