Gap In Chain Of Custody Of Michael Cohen's Cell Phones

Former attorney for former U.S. President Donald Trump Michael Cohen to be deposed by Trump lawyers in New York

During a recent hearing, Trump attorney Emil Bove questioned Douglas Daus regarding the chain of custody of Michael Cohen's two cell phones when they were turned over to the Manhattan district attorney's office in January 2023. The inquiry revealed a notable gap in the timeline, raising concerns about the handling of the evidence.

According to the transcript, there was a discrepancy between the date Cohen signed a form to surrender his cell phone (January 19) and the date it was officially taken into custody (January 23). This four-day gap has prompted further scrutiny into the procedures followed during the transfer of the devices.
