Cohen serves a linchpin role in the state's case as the only witness present during some of the discussions that prosecutors say tie Trump to a scheme to falsify business records in an effort to influence the 2016 election.

From Trump's 'attack dog' to star witness: Michael Cohen set to testify in hush money trial
For nearly a decade, Michael Cohen was Donald Trump's trusted adviser, personal attorney, and self-described "attack dog with a law license." Prosecutors hope his testimony will support their allegations of criminal conduct against Trump in front of a jury that has already heard from 19 different witnesses and seen 200 pieces of evidence. While the jury has seen Trump's signatures on the allegedly fraudulent checks at the center of the case, some witnesses have seemingly distanced Trump from the alleged unlawful conduct -- leaving Cohen with the burden of pinning Trump to the crime.
