Michael Cohen’s texts and recordings on hush money go under the microscope
Trump lawyer Emil Bove is back to examine Doug Daus of the DAâs office, who has admitted to a four-day gap between Michael Cohenâs delivery of the phones to former DA investigator Jeremy Rosenberg and their arrival in Dausâ unit.
Daus has acknowledged a gap like that is ânot idealâ because you cannot confirm that the phone was secured.Â
âDo you know what a factory reset is?â Bove asked Daus, who says it is equivalent to wiping the phone clean of all data.
Bove established that there was a factory reset of the first phone on Oct. 15, 2016, which suggests that there should be âfurther analysisâ to determine how the Sept. 6, 2016, recording got onto the phone.
Bove also established that on Jan. 25, 2017, Cohen synced the phone with his laptop and loaded files onto his phone.
