Cohen released the tape. Attorney client privilege doesn't exist when they're discussing a committing a crime or committing fraud.
Nothing in this sentence is factual.
We don't know who leaked the tape. I think we can safely ignore the Alex Jones theory that Trump leaked it. Just a hunch. It seems like Cohen would be digging himself an even deeper hole if he leaked it, but who knows.
Nothing was criminal.
Cohen very well could be in trouble for releasing privileged, as deemed by the court, information.
"If it fact this material was originally leaked by Cohen when it was still privileged ... remember, a judicial officer found it to be privileged, it then was leaked only after it was leaked did [Rudy] Giuliani waive the privilege as to this in order to protect the privilege as to any other possible conversations ... if Cohen is the source of the leak, he has a serious problem," Dershowitz said on Fox News, indicating that Cohen may have violated attorney-client privilege.
"This was a conversation between a lawyer and a client that should never have been heard," he said.
