Michael Cohen admitted on the witness stand Monday that he stole from the Trump Organization, according to multiple reports.
Cohen testified Monday that he lied to former Trump Organization Chief Financial Officer Allen Weisselberg in 2017 about how much he needed to be reimbursed for a payment to the tech company RedFinch. While he asked for $50,000, Cohen testified that he only gave the company $20,000.
“You stole from the Trump Organization, correct?” Trump’s defense attorney Todd Blanche asked, according to ABC News.
