Judge Forces Michael Cohen to Disclose Name of Client Who Had Instructed Him to Keep It Secret
Cohen has multiple clients, but some wish to not be known.
Cohen was in court protesting the FBI raid into his confidential exchanges with clients. The judge demanded he reveal the name of his client, despite the client's instructions to keep it secret.
And of course the leftwing is now attacking Hannity for not disclosing his secret relationship with Cohen:
Hannity had specifically directed Cohen to not reveal his status as a client.
Cohen declined to identify the third client in a filing in Manhattan federal court, where he will appear Monday at a hearing to determine whether federal prosecutors can review materials seized in an FBI raid on his office, home and hotel room last week.
"The third legal client directed Mr. Cohen to not to reveal the identity publicly," Cohen’s lawyers wrote.
And then the FBI raids Cohen's offices and bang! It's in the HuffPo.
It's almost as if this raid were a political hit intended to embarrass Trump and his supporters and score points for the Democrat/Socialist coalition.
Correction: I initially wrote that this was a leak from the FBI. I was wrong. Cohen was forced to disclose this in court. Why it wasn't disclosed in the judge's private chambers and kept secret, I don't know.
I suspect because #TheResistance.
