I'm worth seven. In fact, I think it's actually now worth eight, with everything that's going on,'" Cohen said in a portion of his deposition that was played during the state's opening statement.
Cohen began working with Trump in 2007, eventually serving as a Trump Organization executive vice president, special counsel, and self-described legal "pit bull" for Trump. By August 2018, Cohen had pleaded guilty to eight criminal counts including tax evasion, campaign finance violations, and making false statements. Cohen also pleaded guilty to one count of making false statements to the United States Congress in November 2018.As part of his guilty plea, Cohen said he made illegal campaign contributions "in coordination and at the direction of a candidate for federal office" who his lawyer later identified as Trump.
Since his guilty pleas, Cohen has also written two books about his work with Trump, who briefly sued Cohen for $500 million before"Over the years he had screwed people over, manipulated them and used them, and I helped him do it," Cohen wrote in his book "Revenge."Cohen's testimony at the fraud trial is likely to focus on Cohen's time in Trump's inner circle between 2011 and 2018, based on the timeframe of conduct alleged in state's case.
Along with three other Trump Organization executives, Cohen served as a part of a "Team of Four" to review Trump's insurance policies in 2013, according to an email already entered into evidence."The Trump Organization has created a 'Team of Four' to review The Trump Organization's insurance program, insurance policy buying decisions, claims management and risk protection protocols," the email said.
