Michael Cohen's Attorney Robert Costello Testifies to Congress: Cohen Paid Stormy Daniels Without Trump's Knowledge
May 15, 2024, 05:25 PM
Michael Cohen’s former attorney, Robert Costello, has testified that Cohen did not believe the Stormy Daniels allegations and paid her off on his own without President Trump's knowledge. Costello's testimony asserts that Cohen acted independently to prevent embarrassment to Trump and his family. This revelation challenges the narrative that Trump was involved in the payment to Daniels. A former federal prosecutor also testified that Cohen had no truthful evidence implicating Trump. DA Bragg is aware of these facts. Costello’s testimony was presented to Congress.
