Special counsel Robert Mueller's office began investigating Michael Cohen as early as July 2017, according to newly unsealed court filings
Special counsel Robert Mueller's office began investigating Michael Cohen — President Donald Trump's longtime personal attorney and fixer — as early as July 2017, according to newly unsealed court filings.
The documents, supporting search warrants used to seize Cohen's devices and records kept in four locations, suggest Cohen was one of Mueller's earliest targets. The newly unsealed files show Mueller began forwarding evidence of crimes to federal prosecutors in New York in February of 2018.
Cohen has pleaded guilty to tax and bank fraud charges, as well as to charges that he illegally steered hush money payments to two women who have accused Trump of extramarital affairs. Cohen also admitted to lying to Congress about his efforts to secure a Trump Tower Moscow deal during the 2016 campaign. He is slated to report to prison in May.
