President Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen heads to prison to begin a three-year prison sentence for crimes including campaign finance violations related to hush-money payments made on Trump's behalf.
Michael Cohen, the former personal attorney to President Trump, departs his Manhattan apartment for prison on Monday.
In a shot at Trump, he said he hoped when he was released, the country would “be in a place without xenophobia, injustice and lies at the helm.” His legal team asked House Democrats last month to intercede after Cohen testified on Capitol Hill, but they were reticent to do so. Federal prosecutors in New York were also no help, Cohen's lawyers said.
Federal prosecutors said Trump directed Cohen to arrange the payments to buy the silence of porn actress Stormy Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal in the run-up to the 2016 election. Trump denies that he had trysts with either woman. At the prison camp, about 115 inmates sleep in bunks lined up in barrack-style halls, instead of individual or two-man cells like in higher-security facilities. Recreational amenities include tennis courts, horseshoes and bocce ball.
