During a recent court session, former Trump attorney Michael Cohen was questioned by Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger regarding the tax and false statement charges he pleaded guilty to in 2018. Cohen acknowledged the charges but expressed his belief that he should not have been prosecuted for these crimes.
Cohen stated, 'I have constantly maintained that I do not dispute the fact. There was an error in the taxable amount and the tax that was due.' He emphasized that while he accepts the factual basis of the charges, he disagrees with the decision to pursue criminal charges against him as a first-time offender with a history of timely tax payments and no prior audits.
