Another day, another significant development in the ongoing legal saga involving Manhattan D.A. Alvin Bragg, this time unfolding on Capitol Hill. During a recent testimony, Bob Costello, a lawyer who had provided unofficial advice to Michael Cohen, revealed details of their initial meeting in 2018. Typically protected by attorney-client privilege, Cohen had waived this privilege, allowing Costello to disclose their conversation. Costello recounted Cohen's repeated denial of possessing any incriminating information about Donald Trump, despite Costello's persistent inquiries during their two-hour discussion.
Costello also probed Cohen about the payments to Stormy Daniels, a crucial aspect of Bragg's case against Trump. Cohen claimed to have handled the matter independently, denying any involvement or financial support from Trump or his affiliates. Additionally, Costello mentioned Cohen's desire to regain favor with Trump by addressing the Stormy Daniels issue.
