Michael Cohen, the former attorney and fixer for former president Donald Trump, claims the ex-president’s son-in-law and former adviser is one of the witnesses who has given evidence about him to the prosecutors who will seek to convict and imprison him next year.
Cohen, who spent several years in prison and on home confinement after being convicted for crimes stemming from his participation in the hush-money scheme for which Mr Trump is facing trial for falsifying business records in his former home state of New York, told CNN on Wednesday that numerous figures in Mr Trump’s inner circle are likely to give evidence against him rather than engage in the stonewalling tactics that were the norm when he was in office and able to shield them from consequences.
