Michael Cohen's evidence may work in Trump's favor
Donald Trump's hush money trial could end in a hung jury because of the evidence of Trump's former lawyer, a New York attorney has said.Lawyer Colleen Kerwick made her comments as prosecutors and Trump's attorneys prepared to make closing statements to the jury on Tuesday.'I would hazard a guess that at least one juror will refuse to convict Trump, the jury will hang, and there will be a mistrial,' Kerwick said.
Kerwick told Newsweek that Cohen admitted to the jury that he had stolen from Trump and covered it up with fraudulent paperwork. She said that some of the jury may accept that Cohen acted alone in creating false records to hide hush money payments to Daniels.Cohen admitted during his testimony that he stole from Trump's parent company, the Trump Organization.During Cohen's testimony, Trump attorney Todd Blanche questioned him about a payment to tech company Red Finch.
