NEW YORK (AP) — Michael Cohen, President Don-
ald Trump’s one-time fixer, was sentenced Wednesday to
three years in prison for crimes that included arranging
the payment of hush money to conceal his boss’ alleged
sexual affairs, telling a judge that he agreed time and again
to cover up Trump’s “dirty deeds” out of “blind loyalty.”
Separately, the legal and political peril surrounding
Trump appeared to deepen when prosecutors announced
that another major piece of the investigation had fallen
into place: The parent company of the National Enquir-
er acknowledged dispensing some of the hush money in
concert with the Trump campaign to fend off a scandal
that could have damaged his bid for the White House.
Cohen, 52, shook his head slightly and closed his eyes
as a judge pronounced his sentence for evading $1.4 mil-
lion in taxes, lying about Trump’s business dealings in
Russia and violating campaign-finance laws in buying the
silence of porn star Stormy Daniels and Playboy center-
fold Karen McDougal, who claimed they had sex with
the candidate. Cohen and federal prosecutors have said
the payments were made at Trump’s direction to influence
the election.
“Time and time again, I felt it was my duty to cover
up his dirty deeds rather than to listen to my own inner
voice and my moral compass,” said a choked-up Cohen,
a lawyer who once boasted he would “take a bullet” for
Trump. “My weakness can be characterized as a blind
loyalty to Donald Trump, and I was weak for not having
the strength to question and to refuse his demands.”
The twin developments represented a double dose of
bad news for the president, who ignored reporters’ ques-
tions about Cohen during an appearance at the White
House later in the day.
Cohen is the first and, so far, only member of Trump’s
circle during two years of investigations to go into open
court and implicate him in a crime, though whether a
president can be prosecuted under the Constitution is an
open question.
In a possible sign of further trouble for the president,
Cohen said he will continue cooperating with prosecu-
tors.
At the sentencing, defense attorney Guy Petrillo plead-
ed for leniency for Cohen, saying, “He came forward to
offer evidence against the most powerful person in our
country.”
U.S. District Judge William H. Pauley III said the de-
fendant deserved modest credit, but his assistance “does
not wipe the slate clean.”
The judge also ordered Cohen to pay $1.39 million in
restitution to the IRS, forfeit $500,000 and pay $100,000
in fines. He was ordered to report to prison March 6 and
left court without comment.
