(Bloomberg) -- Rick Gates, a former Trump campaign aide indicted in October with Paul Manafort on charges of money laundering and illegal foreign lobbying, has agreed to plead guilty and cooperate with U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller, the Los Angeles Times reported. Gates will admit to fraud-related charges in the next few days and agree to testify against Manafort, who worked for several months as Donald Trump’s campaign chairman in the 2016 presidential election, the paper reported, citing people familiar with the case whom it didn’t identify. Two of Mueller’s prosecutors, Andrew Weissmann and Greg Andres, negotiated the Gates’ deal in recent weeks with Washington defense attorney Thomas C. Green, according to the newspaper.
