Description

Famed New York Attorney Bob Costello discusses his conversation with Michael Cohen back in 2018 that directly contradicts Cohen’s testimony he recently gave in the New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s investigation into Donald Trump. Costello testified yesterday as a witness in the Alvin Bragg case saying that, “after listening to Michael Cohen making statements on TV that were directly contrary to what he had told myself and my partner Jeff Citron, back in 2018, I decided that I couldn't sit on the sidelines and that I had to bring these statements to the attention of [The District Attorney’s office and Trump’s legal team].” Costello says that he testified to the court that Michael Cohen back in 2018, “at his most desperate moment,” as he was looking for an “escape hatch” to not spend anytime in jail, repeatedly told him and his parter Jeff Citron, that he didn’t have “anything on Donald Trump.” Costello said that during this conversation Cohen was “paranoid” and “manic,” and kept saying repeatedly, ‘I don't give an F what I have to do, I will never spend a day in jail’ and [Cohen] occasionally would pound the table.” Saying, “As if the message wasn't clear enough, right? Basically, Michael Cohen was saying, ‘I'm willing to lie, cheat, steal, even shoot my mother in order to stay out of jail.’” Costello comments, “do you think that a man with a mindset like that, who is contemplating suicide to escape his legal problems wouldn't give up Donald Trump if he actually had information on him at that point in time? Of course he would. Because he was desperate.” See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
