As the final witness to testify in the trial, Cohen's testimony will be 'important' to the jury, legal expert Harry Litman said.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg seems 'very satisfied' with Michael Cohen's testimony in Donald Trump's criminal trial, a legal analyst has said.Cohen, the former president's one-time lawyer and fixer, is set to continue testifying in the former president's hush money trial on Thursday, which centers around allegations that Trump falsified business records in an alleged scheme to cover up hush money payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels.
He added that the decision not to call another witness after Cohen could signal that prosecutors are 'satisfied' with his testimony.'Lots of social science, not to mention trial lawyer folklore, holds that the final witness is particularly important and salient to the audience, here the jury,' Litman wrote on X.
