During the ongoing trial, the jury has been presented with a series of emails exchanged between Michael Cohen and Keith Davidson. In these emails, Davidson informs Cohen that the deal is off due to Cohen's failure to wire funds as agreed upon.
On October 17, 2016, Cohen admitted that he had intentionally delayed the process, following a demand from Mr. Trump. He also acknowledged that he had not sent the funds to Davidson's lawyers as required on that specific date.
Cohen expressed his concern about losing control over the settlement agreement, emphasizing the importance of preventing the story from being exposed. When questioned about his level of worry, Cohen responded with a definitive 'very'.
