Former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen released from prison again

Michael Cohen Prison

Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer has been released after a judge ruled that he had been sent back to prison from home confinement as retaliation for his plan to release a book critical of the president before November’s election.

Michael Cohen walked out of a federal prison in New York on Friday afternoon, a day after US District Judge Alvin K Hellerstein ruled that his First Amendment rights were violated when he was ordered back to prison on July 9.
