During the trial, Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger resumed questioning key witness Michael Cohen. Hoffinger inquired about Cohen's acquaintance with attorney Robert Costello. Cohen revealed that he was introduced to Costello by lawyer Jeffrey Citron, who described Costello as a criminal defense attorney with close ties to Rudy Giuliani.
The atmosphere in the courtroom was tense as Cohen audibly sighed before the interrogation continued. The mention of Costello and his association with Giuliani added a layer of intrigue to the proceedings, hinting at potential connections and implications yet to be fully explored.
