Michael Cohen, Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer, has admitted in a recent Substack post that he felt “pressured and coerced” by Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg and New York AG Letitia James to provide testimony aimed at securing convictions against Trump.
- Cohen claims this pressure began from his very first meetings with prosecutors from both offices, who focused solely on gathering information to build cases against Trump.
- He accuses Letitia James of making it clear she wanted testimony to “go after” Trump, referencing her 2018 campaign promise to target him.
- Regarding Alvin Bragg, Cohen says prosecutors asked leading questions and pushed for answers that fit their narrative when his statements didn’t align sufficiently.
- Cohen cooperated starting in 2019 while in prison, motivated largely by hopes of reducing his sentence and returning home to his family sooner.
- His testimony was key in James’s civil fraud case (involving inflated asset values) and Bragg’s criminal hush money case, both of which resulted in findings against Trump.
- Cohen now says he feels complicit in allowing a one-sided record and is speaking out amid ongoing appeals, including a federal court’s revival of efforts to undo the hush money conviction.
- He criticizes Bragg and James for sharing the same “playbook” of blending politics with prosecution to target Trump.
- Cohen warns that when politics and prosecution become indistinguishable, it erodes public trust in the entire justice system.
