During the recent trial involving Michael Cohen, his former attorney and current legal advisor, Lanny Davis, provided insights into the defense's strategy and the importance of corroborating evidence. Davis highlighted that the defense effectively challenged Cohen's credibility regarding a phone call to Keith Schiller, emphasizing the need for a focus on documents, testimony, and corroboration.
Davis emphasized the significance of corroborating evidence, such as a document attributed to Allen Weisselberg, which indicated payments made to Cohen were not legal fees but reimbursements, potentially constituting a crime. He stressed that the jury should prioritize factual evidence over dramatic courtroom moments.
