‘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’: Michael Cohen, Trump’s former lawyer, heads to prison to begin three-year sentence
NEW YORK - Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer, took a parting shot at his former boss - denouncing “xenophobia, injustice and lies” - before arriving at a U.S. federal prison on Monday to begin serving a three-year sentence.
“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. “There still remains much to be told, and I look forward to the day that I can share the truth.” Cohen’s prison term completes a stunning fall for the native of New York’s Long Island whose career was tethered to Trump as he evolved from wealthy real estate developer to reality TV personality to politician. For more than a decade, Cohen served as Trump’s personal lawyer and self-described “fixer.”
Davis also said Cohen “will continue to be accessible to Congress and to federal, state and local law enforcement.” Michael Cohen, U.S. President Donald Trump's former lawyer, speaks to the media as he leaves his apartment to report to prison in the Manhattan borough of New York City, New York, U.S., May 6, 2019.

I am ashamed because I know what Mr. Trump is. He is a racist. He is a con man.
Trump, for this part, has blasted Cohen on Twitter, calling him a “weak person” as well as a “bad lawyer and fraudster.”
