United States|Cohen has previously admitted to paying bribes.
of the United States of the former president Donald Trump’s a former lawyer Michael Cohen testified on Monday in the so-called racketeering trial in New York. Cohen is a key witness in the case.
Cohen has previously admitted to paying bribes. Porn actress to Stormy Daniels was paid $130,000 during the 2016 presidential election to keep quiet about an alleged sexual relationship between her and Trump at Lake Tahoe in 2006.
Prosecutor alleges that Trump falsified business documents that prosecutors say related to embezzlement money. The settlement was drawn up by Trump’s lawyer, Cohen, who has since become a vocal critic of Trump.
Prosecutors say Trump was desperate to silence Daniels before the Lake Tahoe events could ruin his chances of winning a close presidential race.
Trump has denied both having sex with Daniels and paying her to keep quiet for the sake of the presidential election.
