NBC10 Philadelphia: “President Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer was returned to prison because he refused to sign an agreement over terms of his home confinement, not because he planned to publish a book critical of Trump, prosecutors said Wednesday.”
“The written arguments came in advance of a court hearing Thursday before a judge who will decide whether Michael Cohen’s constitutional rights were violated when he was returned to prison July 9.”
“Prosecutors said the home confinement agreement was not created by anyone at the Bureau of Prisons or in the executive branch, ‘let alone a high-level official with any motive to prevent the release of Petitioner’s book.'”
“Instead, they said, it was drafted by a probation officer who did not know Cohen was writing a book.”
