During a recent hearing, Trump attorney Emil Bove questioned Douglas Daus about a 'factory wipe' that occurred on Michael Cohen's first phone on October 1, 2016. This action took place after an audio recording dated September 6, 2016, between Cohen and Donald Trump was made on the phone.
Bove probed Daus about whether the wipe could potentially cast doubt on the authenticity or integrity of the aforementioned audio file. In response, Daus emphasized the importance of examining the origin of the file in question.
