Michael Cohen, Trump's former lawyer, reached a deal to release a memoir with unflattering details about Trump. While serving a three-year sentence, Cohen was allowed media interviews during home confinement. A legal dispute over a gag order led to his reincarceration, but a judge later re-released him, suspecting the imprisonment was punishment for his book.
