Subject: Re: Turley on Mike Cohen testifying.
hclasvegas: Cohen nearly comprises the prosecution’s entire case against former President Donald Trump...

"Nearly" is one of those lawyerly wiggle words, right? I mean, otherwise why not just say "Cohen alone comprises the prosecution's entire case"?

Well, here's why: this morning Jeffrey McConney, the former Trump Organization controller, identified the handwritten notes -- documentary evidence -- of Allen Weisselberg, specifying the precise amounts Cohen was to be reimbursed, including the $130,000 hush money payment.

So McConney is a witness independent of Cohen plus his testimony refutes the defense's position that Cohen was working as some sort of a rogue agent.

Well, that and evidence that Cohen was asking the Trump Organization how much he was supposed to bill them (attorneys generally don't ask their clients how much they should bill them).
