REVEALED: Cohen’s Family Loaned $20M To Taxi Mogul Named In Warrant For FBI’s Raid On Cohen’s Office

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:

The ties between President Donald Trump’s embattled personal lawyer Michael D. Cohen and Chicago’s taxicab industry go deeper than previously known. Over the past eight months, Cohen’s father-in-law has given at least $20 million in loans to Yasya Shtayner, records examined by the Chicago Sun-Times show. Her family owns Chicago Medallion Management Corp., which manages 368 taxicabs, including 22 owned by Cohen.

Shtayner and her husband Semyon Shtayner — Chicago Medallion Management’s corporate secretary — were identified in a warrant the FBI used to raid Cohen’s law office and home, looking for documents relating to his business interests as well as his $130,000 payment to porn star Stormy Daniels to keep her from discussing her alleged dalliance with Trump, according to a CNN report.

The Hill reports:

Shtayner, her husband and their sons are also facing a separate lawsuit from a federal credit union operated by the League of Mutual Taxi Owners in New York. The federal credit union sued in an effort to collect a loan of about $3.5 million. Shusterman, who owns a condo in Trump World Tower in New York, in 1993 pleaded guilty to federal income-tax fraud regarding the taxicab business he owns in New York.
