Judge Refuses to Punish Michael Cohen for Alleged Perjury and AI-Generated Legal Filing

A federal judge refused to shorten Michael Cohen's post-prison monitoring, criticizing him for "perjury" during Trump's bank fraud trial and undermining his credibility as a witness. The judge's order raises questions about Cohen's trustworthiness as the lead witness for the Manhattan District Attorney just weeks before Trump's first criminal trial in New York City. Cohen's attempt to distance himself from past crimes backfired, leading the judge to conclude that he either lied at his guilty plea hearing or during the recent trial. The judge's decision is likely to be used by Trump's legal team to challenge Cohen's reliability as a witness in the upcoming trial.
