The jury is currently reviewing the general ledger of the trust account from 2017, which reveals three payments made to Michel Cohen under the category of 'legal expenses.' These payments, totaling $105,000, were disbursed in January, February, and March of that year.
Further examination of the general ledger of Trump's personal account for 2017 shows a series of nine payments made to Cohen between April and December, amounting to $315,000. These payments are also labeled as 'legal expenses,' as confirmed by the investigation.
It has been noted that each entry in the general ledger, marked as a retainer agreement payment to Cohen, corresponds to specific charges of falsifying business records outlined in the indictment against Donald Trump.
