On April 13, instead of attending the federal hearing over what of the materials seized in the recent FBI raid of his home and office might be covered by attorney-client privilege, Michael Cohen decided to have a little sit-down with a few of his friends outside of his hotel.
Most of the attendees have at this point been identified. Aside from Cohen (plaid jacket) they are:
Rotem Rosen (sitting on the right). Among other things, the right-hand man of USSR-born, Putin-connected billionaire Lev Leviev. Rosen accompanied Donald Trump to Moscow for the 2013 Miss Universe pageant.
Dan Elituv (left in grey t-shirt), head of Gottex Models Ltd, which he purchased in 2009 from Lev Leviev.
Jerry Rotonda (back left in suit). Former CFO of Deutsche Bank America.
