The heat is already turned up pretty high on Trump’s personal lawyer Michael Cohen, but Tuesday it got just a little bit hotter when the New York Times reported that Cohen’s longtime business partner Evgeny “the Taxi King” Freidman had agreed to assist prosecutors in return for a reduced sentence on the four felony counts of tax fraud and a single charge of felony grand larceny for failing to pay more than $5 million in taxes to the MTA. Under the terms of the agreement, Freidman, an immigrant from Russia, pleaded guilty to a lesser tax crime and will not do any time in jail return for his cooperation.
