#25: Real Attorney Breaks Down Roy Cohn, Vicious Mob & Celebrity Lawyer

In this episode, we discuss Roy Marcus Cohn (1927-1986) with professional attorney, Tony Taouk of Magna Carta Lawyers in Sydney, Australia. Tony and I walk through Roy Cohn's history, and Tony brings an attorney's perspective to some of Cohn's vicious tactics, personal life, as well as areas where he displayed both pure brilliance and borderline diabolical evil. We cover:

  • Cohn's upbringing and early life
  • Cohn's involvement in the Julius and Ethel Rosenberg trial in the early 1950's
  • Cohn's involvement in the McCarthy investigations of the 1950's during the Cold War and Communism scares
  • Cohn's eventual fall from grace after his misconduct was discovered and re-emergence as a private practice attorney
  • Cohn's legal representation of various mobsters including John Gotti, Tony Salerno, and Carmine Galante
  • Cohn's representation of various celebrities including Donald Trump
  • Some of Cohn's brilliant and vicious tactics
  • We debate Cohn's legacy and a top mob lawyer
