Prosecution rests in Trump’s hush money trial; defense now gets its turn to call witnesses

LA Times  

Michael Cohen heads to Manhattan criminal court in New York on Monday. Cohen testified Monday that he stole tens of thousands of dollars from Trump’s company — an admission defense lawyers hope to use to undermine Cohen’s credibility as a key prosecution witness. Before Costello took the stand, Judge Juan M. Merchan ruled that he would allow the defense to question the attorney about two allegedly inconsistent statements in Cohen’s testimony and “offer some rebuttal” to the testimony. However, Costello said, Cohen told him Trump “knew nothing” about the hush money paid to the porn actor. “Michael Cohen said numerous times that President Trump knew nothing about those payments, that he did this on his own, and he repeated that numerous times,” Costello testified.
