Unsealed documents shed new light on depth of the Cohen probe

A trove of newly released documents from the federal raids on Michael Cohen’s home and office are offering new insight on how investigators built their case against President Trump's former "fixer."

The nearly 900 pages of redacted documents show that investigators examined nearly all aspects of Cohen’s life, first as part of special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe and then as federal prosecutors in New York took hold of the case.

They also reveal allegations the FBI looked into but did not charge Cohen with having committed, including concerns that President Trump's former lawyer could be acting as an unregistered foreign lobbyist.

Former prosecutors with the Manhattan attorney’s office told The Hill that the documents outline a typical investigation for the office.
