DIRTY COP STEPS FORWARD – Admits Leaking Michael Cohen’s Bank Records
The Gateway Pundit ^ | May 16, 2018 | Cristina Laila

Posted on 05/16/2018 9:47:23 PM PDT by Texas Fossil

On April 9, 2018 FBI agents raided the office of one of Trump’s personal lawyers Michael Cohen at the request of Special Counsel Robert Mueller. Michael Cohen is President Trump’s personal attorney. The Mueller mob took all of his records and emails.

One month later — Cohen’s financial documents are leaked to the porn star’s shady attorney.

The Treasury Department’s inspector general is investigating how Stormy Daniels’s lawyer Michael Avenatti obtained confidential banking records concerning a company controlled by President Trump’s personal attorney Michael Cohen.

Now this…

A law enforcement official has admitted to leaking Cohen’s bank records.

The name of the leaker is being withheld from the public.

The New Yorker reported:

--

Trial lawyer Robert Barnes weighed in with his prediction:

As forecast, Avenatti obtained his information through an illegal, CRIMINAL LEAK by someone now identified as a “law enforcement official.” Given this source both knew about bank transactions and had access to a government database, this is highly likely either #SDNY or #Mueller. https://t.co/cuReeYc2qn

>>Trial lawyer Robert Barnes

Keep an eye on this guy, he is doing some good, interesting work. I can see him joining the Trump team in some manner to fight the Deep State.

He recently did an AMA on r/The_Donald. It is worth reading, he’s an interesting guy.

https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/8jq2zz/barnes_law_ask_me_anything/

He opened with this statement and then answered over 100 questions:

A few proverbs: Michael Avenatti is a fraud; Comey is a keystone criminal; Mueller is Hoover without the IQ; always bet on black or bet on Trump; Wesley Snipes only crime was asking the government a question they didn’t want to answer; the power of social media to privatize the public square is the greatest threat to free speech and open democracy in our lifetimes; yes I am suing Twitter for Charles Johnson, with plans in place to sue other social media monopolies; almost all of my cases feature underdogs, even when the underdog might be a millionaire or billionaire; want a legal education? watch Billions, Bosch & Damages; want to foresee political history? read Ellroy, Grisham & LeCarre; want to make money betting on politics? then, as bloomberg says, “bet with Barnes.” www.barneslawllp.com @Barnes_Law

“A law enforcement official has admitted to leaking Cohen’s bank records.

Why not leak? It’s just a movie and no one is actually going to get hurt. The farce of the American justice “system”.

“More interested in why he “stepped forward.””

Rat on Avenatti for lighter sentence?

Those Weiner emails have probably been packaged, securitized and repackaged as blackmail material all over the dark web—sort of like what the investment bankers did (and still do?) with high risk home mortgages. ;-)

I hear speculation as to who it is. There may be more than 1.

Some of it may be outside the US. But this leak is very likely within the US. But appears to feel protected.

“The gullible liberal media” = The complicit liberal media

“suppose the “sar” documents were not in the database because they did not exist”

That is credible. I read some time ago about Cohen's business operation. It was on reddit, but it was believeable. It hinted about his methods of hiding financial transactions. He is not a dummy. And you are correct, the Special Prosecutor is capable of fabricating and the plotters at the DOJ and FBI have clearly already done that with the Dossier.

Thumbs Up!!!

And, of course all the foreign intel agencies that have them( at least 5, I think) were probably drooling over the chance that she would win and be able to use all that leverage.

So this is likely a CYA leak from within the SC’s group of attorney’s?

Now the question? Who is paying the porn actress’s attorney fees? I’m sure that is being examined. I read he was under investigation. From what we know about his past, that should be very interesting.

It seems that all they need do is simply resign. For some nonsensical reason, prosecution stops upon a resignation.

Is he stepping forward out of guilt, or to try to stop investigations from looking any deeper - like who’s behind/above him in the motive for the leak?

I cannot see stepping forward will stop anything unless he has immunity or is a foreign agent.
