“I stand by my testimony and the evidence that I provided to the district attorney of New York,” Cohen said on Thursday during an interview on MSNBC. After the prosecutors’ departure, Bragg hired a former colleague at the New York Attorney General’s Office — Matthew Colangelo, who helped lead a lawsuit against the Trump Foundation that led to its demise — and the district attorney’s probe appeared to kick into higher gear. Bragg inherited the Trump case from his predecessor, Cy Vance, and both district attorneys initially indicated there wasn’t enough evidence to bring a case against the former president. And both Cohen and federal prosecutors have said that he acted “in coordination with and at the direction of” the former president. The former president is also facing potential criminal charges on three other fronts — over allegations of trying to undermine the 2020 election results in Georgia, taking classified documents from the White House (and obstructing efforts to recover them) and for his involvement in the Jan.

And while the case could stretch beyond November 2024, a conviction before then would spark a host of constitutional issues. The district attorney’s office requested that Trump surrender on Friday, but Trump’s lawyers replied that the timeline was too tight, saying the U.S. He did not commit any crime,” the attorneys Joe Tacopina and Susan Necheles said in a statement.
