During the recent legal proceedings, Trump attorney Todd Blanche raised questions about a business associate of Michael Cohen who had cooperated in a federal investigation. Cohen revealed that the associate was involved in managing a taxi company and had leased taxi medallions from him.
Blanche referenced Cohen's guilty plea on August 21, 2018, highlighting the moment when Judge Pauley had Cohen sworn in during the hearing. This event mirrored a similar occurrence that took place on a Monday morning.
The tax evasion charges that Cohen admitted to in 2018 were connected to his income from taxi medallions. Cohen acknowledged in court that he was aware of his associate's cooperation with federal investigators before entering his guilty plea.
Blanche proceeded to question Cohen about the statements he had made to Judge William Pauley during the aforementioned hearing, delving into the details of the case.
