The left knows the jury is probably gonna find Manafort not guilty so they want the names of the jurors so they can threaten them and their families like they are doing to the judge. The Russia conspiracy theory is falling apart and they are getting desperate. Wonder what their next move will be when Manafort walks.

Antifa is standing by to correct those misguided jurors. As soon as they can identify them and find their families to threaten...I mean persuade them to do the right thing.

Yeah I have been reading up on it and it seems like the prosecution's whole argument was that he was being paid for by rich "oglirachs" so there must be something wrong going on. They were throwing the word "Oglirach" around so much that the judge finally had them put a sock in it.

 The headline seems a bit misleading, I thought most federal judges were under US Marshall protection.  Regardless, the fact that this trial is garnering threats to the judge certainly justifies the judge not revealing the names of the jurors.

The other hurdle the prosecution faces is having Gates as their star witness.  Considering the prosecution is saying Gates testimony was not that important, doesn’t square with the sweetheart deal they offered him outside of DOJ guidelines.
