During the recent court proceedings, Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger revisited the joint defense agreement involving Michael Cohen and inquired about President Trump's involvement in it. Cohen confirmed that Trump was indeed part of the agreement. However, when Hoffinger asked who would benefit from the agreement, the defense objected, and the objection was upheld.
Undeterred, Hoffinger rephrased her question to inquire about the potential beneficiaries of the joint defense agreement. Cohen responded by stating that he believed several individuals would benefit, with President Trump being a notable beneficiary.
Continuing her line of questioning, Hoffinger asked Cohen directly if he understood that he would also benefit from the agreement. Cohen's response was affirmative, acknowledging that he perceived personal benefits from the arrangement.
The exchange sheds light on the intricate legal dynamics surrounding joint defense agreements and their implications for the parties involved. The revelation of President Trump's connection to the agreement adds a significant dimension to the ongoing legal saga.
