Bookkeepers get to know who is a regular on the Accounts Payable system.
IF COHEN had cleaned a building for Trump, after many years of submitting LEGAL FEES invoices, the bookkeeper would just about automatically record it as legal fees.
IF Cohen’s invoice said LEGAL FEES-—CANNOT blame the bookkeepers.
The biggest criminal in this “trial” is COHEN.
I do contracts with my clients....I tell them what I will do (which is a broad statement) and that they will pay me in three installments.
Cohen says he will provide legal services...and a contract with Stormy is a legal service.
If they want to know what's up...they have to search Cohen's files...which they obviously did and that's how Cohen wound up in jail...nothing to do with Trump.
