President Donald Trump's former personal lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen is seeking to delay his surrender to prison — and get a reduced sentence — by citing his recent ability to access a computer hard drive containing more than 14 million files, some of which could help congressional committees investigating Trump.
The letter comes a month before Cohen is scheduled to begin serving a three-year prison term, and two weeks after Mueller's report found there was not evidence Trump's campaign colluded with Russia to interfere with the election. Cohen last month testified before several congressional committees and testified about his work for Trump, and about evidence of possible crimes by the president. Trump has denied having sex with Daniels and McDougal, and also has denied any criminal wrongdoing.
"To date, Mr. Cohen has located several documents that we believe have significant value to the various congressional oversight and investigation committees," the attorneys wrote."Working alone, Mr. Cohen has only had the time to go through less than 1 percent of the drive, or approximately 3,500 files."
