Trump cheers news of ‘most important witness’ in New York hush-money probe
by Lauren Sforza - 03/19/23 11:09 PM ETFormer President Trump applauded the news on Sunday that Robert Costello, who once served as a legal advisor to former Trump attorney Michael Cohen, will testify on Monday before the New York grand jury investigating Trump’s alleged involvement in a hush-money scheme.
“Just reported that the most important witness to go before the New York City grand jury, a highly respected lawyer who once represented convicted felon, jailbird, and serial fake storyteller and liar, Michael Cohen, will be doing so tomorrow afternoon,” Trump wrote in an all-caps Truth Social post Sunday.
“The information he will present will supposedly be conclusive and irrefutable! Witch hunt!!!,” he added.
Costello, who has fallen out with Cohen in recent years, confirmed to The Hill that he will be appearing before the grand jury on Monday.
Cohen, a key witness in the investigation, said on Sunday he was asked to appear as a “rebuttal witness” at the Manhattan District Attorney’s office and signaled that another witness would appear on Monday.
