    Having scumbags rat out larger scumbags is something these people do all the time with mob and gang cases. And prosecutors have a high success rate with those cases in this court.

      Right, but the problem is that if Cohen is such a shitty scumbag, some jurors might doubt his testimony, even if he just so happens to be telling the truth, just this once.

      And he’s a really shitty scumbag.
