US EditionMichael Cohen, Who Turned on Trump with Glee, Now Claims He Was ‘Coerced’ to Cooperate
Michael Cohen says prosecutors pressured his testimony to secure convictions against Trump in a New York fraud case, with motivations for his claims remaining unclear.
- On Friday, Michael Cohen, former Trump Organization counsel, alleged Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg and New York Attorney General Letitia James pressured his testimony against President Donald Trump, which Trump amplified by reposting a Fox News story on Truth Social Monday.
- By April 2021 Michael Cohen had clocked at least 300 hours of interviews and later provided over 400 hours of testimony that fed 18 investigations, with New York Attorney General Letitia James crediting his testimony for sparking her probe.
- Having built a Substack audience and media presence, Michael Cohen profited from memoirs and the 'Mea Culpa' podcast, but analysts and critics note his past praise of prosecutors complicates his coercion claims.
- Fans of Trump's MAGA movement lashed out on social media, while Lanny Davis, defense attorney, declined to comment Monday and said he no longer represents Cohen.
- Observers say Cohen's reversal clouds witness credibility and prosecutors' motives, noting his testimony helped prompt prosecutions and indictments led by Letitia James.
