Michael Cohen Prosecutors Get 12 Audio Recordings To Review

[edpc]

U.S. prosecutors probing Michael Cohen are reviewing 12 audio recordings seized in an April raid of the home, office and hotel room of President Donald Trump’s former lawyer and fixer.

The retired judge who is deciding whether prosecutors may review the seized material said in a Monday filing that “the parties” -- presumably Trump and perhaps Cohen -- no longer object to the government listening to “12 audio items.” The parties had previously claimed that the 12 items were “privileged” and couldn’t be seen by the government.

On Friday, Trump’s lawyer, Rudolph Giuliani, confirmed that Cohen had secretly recorded a conversation in which he and Trump discussed payments to a former Playboy model who claimed she’d had an affair with Trump. The disclosure spurred speculation that Cohen had made other recordings of Trump.

 Of the 12 audio recordings referenced in today’s court filing, only one is between Cohen and Trump, according to a source familiar with the files. That file is the recording of Cohen and Trump discussing the Karen McDougal payment, the source added. @KaraScannell
