Donald Trump’s Manhattan grand jury is no longer meeting Wednesday.
The jury might not meet again until next week.
This comes after testimony from Robert Costello.
The Manhattan ‘hush-money’ grand jury has been told not to come in on Wednesday, a cancellation that comes on the brink of a possible historic indictment vote of former President Donald Trump, according to two law enforcement officers.
And while nothing beyond Wednesday is set in stone, it is unlikely that the grand jury will meet at all this week, said one of the law enforcement sources, who spoke to Insider on condition of anonymity.
The pause comes after unexpected testimony Monday by Robert Costello, who was allowed to address the grand jurors at the defense’s request.
Costello blasted Michael Cohen in his testimony.
While discussing Trump’s potential indictment on Monday, Robert Costello, former legal advisor to Michael Cohen, referred to Cohen as a “convicted perjurer” and suggested that his testimony may not be reliable in any case.
Recently, a grand jury has been investigating Trump’s business practices, including his alleged involvement in hush-money payments made to a woman who claimed to have had an affair with him before the 2016 presidential election. As part of this investigation, Robert Costello, former legal advisor to Michael Cohen, testified before the grand jury.
Costello stated that he made the decision to testify despite warnings from others that he had nothing to gain. He wanted to tell the truth to the grand jurors and counter the lies being promoted in the media. Costello suggested that if there is solid evidence to go after Trump, that’s alright – but he believes that Cohen is far from solid evidence.
Costello said, “If you see the full picture, you know, listen, if they want to go after Donald Trump and they have solid evidence, so be it. But Michael Cohn is far from solid evidence.
Stop the witch hunt!
