According to The New York Times, federal prosecutors, allegedly acting on a tip from the Mueller investigation, raided the offices of Donald Trump's lawyer Michael D. Cohen.
"Today the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York executed a series of search warrants and seized the privileged communications between my client, Michael Cohen, and his clients,” said Stephen Ryan, his lawyer. “I have been advised by federal prosecutors that the New York action is, in part, a referral by the Office of Special Counsel, Robert Mueller.”
From the Times:
"The seized records include communications between Mr. Trump and Mr. Cohen, which would likely require a special team of agents to review because conversations between lawyers and clients are protected from scrutiny in most instances."
Of course, Cohen described the raid as unnecessary.
At least we don't have to deal with her emails.
