While particulars are still scare on what is unexpectedly breaking badly news©, in exchange for pleading guilty and continuing to cooperate with Mr. Mueller, Cohen is surely angling for a lighter sentence than he otherwise would. 

 

That and perhaps so also carve out a few pounds of payback.

 

 

The moves comes just two weeks before Mr. Cohen, 52, is scheduled to be sentenced for his earlier guilty plea.  That case, which also included bank and tax crimes, was brought by federal prosecutors in Manhattan.
