Trump’s att’y pleading Fifth in Stormy suit

WARY HE might incriminate himself, embattled Trump attorney Michael Cohen announced Wednesday he will refuse to testify under oath in a lawsuit filed against him by porn star Stormy Daniels.

Cohen, who is facing a criminal investigation in New York, said in a California court filing that he will invoke his Fifth Amendment rights if he is asked to testify about a $130,000 payment he made to Daniels 11 days before the 2016 election.

Daniels says she took the money in exchange for signing a “hush agreement” that bars her from speaking publicly about having sex with President Trump in 2006.

“I first realized that my Fifth Amendment rights would be implicated in this case after I considered the events of April 9,” Cohen said in the filing, referencing the high-profile FBI raids at his Manhattan office and hotel room, during which a cache of records relating to the Daniels payment were confiscated, including communications with Trump.

Cohen’s lawyer did not respond to a request for comment.

Daniels’ attorney, Michael Avenatti, called Cohen’s latest filing a “stunning development.”

Avenatti has filed multiple motions to get Cohen and Trump to testify under oath, hoping they might implicate themselves by doing so.
