Ex-lawyer Cohen reports to prison, blasts Trump for 'injustice and lies'

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer, took a parting shot at his former boss - denouncing “xenophobia, injustice and lies” - before reporting to a U.S. federal prison on Monday to begin a three-year sentence.

Cohen, who once vowed to “take a bullet” for Trump but now calls him a “con man,” checked into the Federal Correctional Institution in Otisville, New York, about 70 miles (110 km) northwest of New York City, to serve his sentence for arranging hush payments to two women who said they had sexual encounters with Trump, financial crimes and lying to Congress.

 

Cohen, 52, hinted he had more secrets to divulge as he made brief remarks to a crush of camera crews and reporters gathered on the sidewalk outside his Manhattan residence - the Trump Park Avenue apartment building - before being driven to the prison.

“I hope that when I rejoin my family and friends that the country will be in a place without xenophobia, injustice and lies at the helm of our country,” Cohen said, without uttering Trump’s name. “There still remains much to be told, and I look forward to the day that I can share the truth.”

 

Cohen was driven to the prison in a black SUV, arriving shortly after 11:30 a.m. (1530 GMT), some 2-1/2 hours before his deadline to report. Aerial TV news video showed Cohen stepping out of the SUV, then removing his jacket and leaving it inside the vehicle before walking with two men, apparently prison officials, into a building entrance.

 

The U.S. Bureau of Prisons, which runs the facility, confirmed by email Cohen was in its custody. Cohen is expected to stay at the prison’s minimum security camp.
