Former Trump attorney Michael Cohen said Sunday that he believes former FBI Director James Comey may have committed a crime, though he acknowledged he does not know what the alleged offense would be.

Cohen made the remarks while appearing on MSNBC’s The Weekend during a panel discussion.

Cohen began by questioning the lack of public access to Department of Justice records in its ongoing investigations.

“Who’s seen a single document that’s in the possession right now of the DOJ? The answer is nobody. Who has the crystal ball? Still nobody,” he said.

He then speculated on the scope of evidence, adding, “Chances are, this DOJ has every single email, every text message, every communication. I believe likely he will be found guilty.”

Co-host Elise Jordan responded, “Well, that’s interesting.”

Cohen then repeated his assertion, saying, “I believe likely he committed a crime.”

Panelist Molly Jong-Fast expressed surprise at the comment and asked for clarification.

Cohen replied, “I believe likely he committed a crime. I don’t know what that crime is, but there are hundreds of thousands of documents, and the government has each and every one of them.”

Cohen drew on his own experience with federal prosecutors, saying, “I’ve been through this system. I know better than anybody what a weaponized DOJ looks like and feels like. It is insurmountable.”

Jordan then pressed Cohen on his own legal troubles, asking, “Didn’t you actually break the law, though, with Stormy Daniels and the payment?”

Cohen responded, “Well, it was a campaign finance violation.”

Jordan countered, “Isn’t that what the law is supposed to do?”

Cohen elaborated further on the circumstances of his case, stating, “Pled under some very extreme circumstances. My entire case didn’t last like everyone else’s. It was 48 hours. From a Friday to a Monday, either I plead guilty or Southern District of New York was filing an 80-page indictment that included my wife. We could re-litigate the whole thing, but I believe that Comey likely will be found guilty.”

The exchange marked one of Cohen’s strongest public statements against James Comey since leaving his role as President Trump’s attorney.

While Cohen stopped short of identifying any specific crime, he repeatedly asserted that federal investigators hold extensive documentation that could lead to charges against the former FBI director.

Comey, who led the bureau from 2013 until his dismissal by President Trump in 2017, has faced years of political controversy over his handling of the Clinton email investigation and the FBI’s role in the early stages of the Russia probe.

The Department of Justice has not announced any new charges or findings related to Comey, and Cohen provided no direct evidence to support his claims.

The comments are expected to draw attention from both critics and supporters of Comey as oversight of the Justice Department remains a central issue in Washington.
