I'm afraid it's not that easy.
The prosecution did put Jeffrey McConney the Trump controller on the stand so they were probably pretty aware of what he would say.
They are going to use McConney to try to corroborate. Michael Cohen. The prosecution is saying there were hush money payments and then later business records. The people who knew about the hush money payments were Trump, Pecker, and Cohen. Possibly Alan Weisselberg knew. The people who knew what the business records were for were Trump, Cohen and Weisselberg.
Mcconnie said a couple things that the Trump lawyers will have to deal with somehow.
He never saw a legal retainer for Michael Cohen.
He was told by Alan Weisselberg the money was for reimbursing Cohen and he was going to be reimbursed for $420,000 not just the $130,000 paid to Daniels.
Both he and Weisselberg took notes that explained how they got to this number.
So yes, McConney directly told the accounting department what to write on the records, but he basically was doing his Alan Weisselberg told him.
OK. This is Robert Gouveia. I've seen him on Twitter.
The discussion of the reimbursement and the notes starts about 33:00 minutes in
51:22 is where Trump's lawyer gets to ask him about the notes.
(This guy's acting is killing me.)
