Amid an absolute mob scene of reporters and camera operators, Michael Cohen made one last statement before reporting to prison for three years on Monday morning.

“I hope when I rejoin my family and friends that the country will be in a place without xenophobia, injustice and lies at the helm of our country,” he said. “There still remains much to be told, and I look forward to the day that I can share the truth. And thank you all very much.”

He then pushed his way through the ocean of bodies and cameras, being buffeted by people trying to get a final question in. He was loaded into a black Escalade and zipped down the midtown Manhattan street on his way to incarceration.

    In a book. For a large guaranteed advance. Because secret impediments known only to me prevent revealing those truths beforehand.
  2. Seemingly, he is afraid for his family should he tell all. Maybe it’s time to set up a fund for their protection in the federal witness program.Once assured they are safe, and that Cohen will be safe when he gets out, he might tell more. The truth will out. Beyond that, could Congress call him in to testify at this point?

    Cohan belongs in jail, along with his accomplices. I am looking ay you Little Donnie Short Fingers.

  4. That is assuming he survives Prison.

    There are a lot of very powerful people (US, Russian, and Israeli) who would rather that Micheal Cohen never walks out of prison alive, since: “Dead Men Tell No Tales.”

    I HOPE his lawyers have requested he be sequestered from the general population, for his own safety.

  5. Cohen has no doubt already written it all up, and recorded videos to be released if something happens to him. Think John Grisham.
