[This report was produced live during a court hearing with a lot going on. There will be typos. Please don't email us about typos that you find.] After lunch session. Continuing Jane Doe 2's testimony. Mueller: After this incident, who were some of the first people you disclosed to what had happened.
WTF was the pumpkin BS from Cohen? It makes my skin crawl. As for this witness, just by reading it she seems kind of scattered. I do understand that she was nervous when she spoke to the detective and that there was some miscommunication there. There were times it seemed Cohen was badgering the witness. However, this was probably Cohen's best showing thus far. That is NOT saying a lot for such "high powered" legal representation. I'm looking forward to re-direct.
This cross reads like something from a different decade. Just because she kissed him, or was "into it" (though I'm not sure she was), or said yes (or didn't say no) at one point doesn't mean that she consented to intercourse. Just because she had a couple of drinks doesn't mean she consented.
