Mr. Cohen, who is Donald J. Trump's former fixer, pleaded guilty in August 2018 to a variety of federal crimes, including campaign finance violations for his role in two hush-money deals with women who said they had sex with Mr. Trump.
Mr. Cohen is now the star witness in Mr. Trump's criminal trial in Manhattan, which centers on a hush-money deal. A judge sentenced Mr. Cohen to three years in prison for all the charges, and in May 2019, he reported to the medium-security federal prison and detention center in Otisville, N.Y.
Ever since gaining his freedom, Mr. Cohen has fashioned himself as a standard-bearer of the anti-Trump resistance, seeking what he once called a way to right some of the many wrongs I committed at his behest.
Mr. Cohen took the stand to say that Mr. Trump had directed him to manipulate internal records to inflate the former president's net worth. He also likened Mr. Trump to a mob boss.
