Michael Cohen, former personal lawyer and fixer for President Donald Trump, was ordered imprisoned Wednesday for three years for a range of crimes, including ones which helped cover up Trump's "dirty deeds" and put the president in legal peril.
"I take full responsibility for each act that I pled guilty to — the personal ones to me and those involving the president of the United States of America," an emotional Cohen said in federal court in Manhattan.
"It was my own weakness and a blind loyalty to this man that led me to choose a path of darkness over light, Cohen said.
"Time and time again I felt it was my duty to cover up his dirty deeds."
The 52-year-old attorney also was ordered by Judge William Pauley to pay $1.39 million in restitution, $500,000 in forfeiture and $100,000 in fines.
Trump later Wednesday refused to answer reporters when asked about his former personal lawyer.

Tanzania last week licensed a second Chinese commercial bank as President John Magufuli’s administration looks East for funds for mega infrastructure projects.
The licensing of the China Dasheng Bank Ltd, and its subsequent injection of $40 million capital, heralded changing fortunes for the Chinese in Tanzania, amid growing apathy among Dar’s traditional lenders.
Speaking in South Africa last week, the World Bank President Jim Yong Kim said he was perturbed by the recent happenings in Tanzania, giving the clearest signal that all was not well.
“Let me just be very blunt, we are very upset about what's happening in Tanzania,” Mr Kim said at a lecture at Wits University in Johannesburg.
“There are some things that are happening that we are upset with, and we have made ourselves clear, that we cannot tolerate that,” he added.
Mr Kim’s statement seems to throw a cloud of doubt around funding for Tanzanian projects.

Twenty months ago, the World Bank announced a $1.15 billion four-year facility comprising loans and grants.
The projects under this programme are in the transport sector (railways, roads), water, education and energy sectors.
The funding included $425 million for the second and third phases of the Dar es Salaam Bus Rapid Transit, $305 million for expansion of the port of Dar es Salaam, $60 million for the Ubungo interchange and $100 million for Dar es Salaam water supply upgrade.
At the time, Tanzania President John Magufuli had shunned China, and cancelled their $7.6 billion funding offer for his country’s standard gauge railway citing “ethical irregularities” that had been “conveniently ignored.”
Now, President Magufuli has changed tune, praising China’s financing role of his country’s infrastructure modernisation drive, and the subsequent announcement of China Dasheng Bank Ltd’s entry, which is raising the stakes as Tanzania weighs its financing options.
“We prefer assistance from China, as Beijing imposes fewer conditions,” President Magufuli said last week, after facing threats in recent weeks from Western donors to cut off aid in response to human rights concerns.
“The thing that makes you happy about their aid is that it is not tied to any conditions. When they decide to give you assistance, they just give you. As it is, my government will continue to develop and cultivate its good relationship with China. They have helped us in a lot of other areas of development.”
Tanzania is a significant beneficiary of EU development co-operation, mainly financed by the European Development Fund, with the current cycle of 2014/2020 budget for $709.38 million, for Dar’s energy, agriculture, health, governance and security sectors now at stake.
The licensing of China Dasheng Bank Ltd makes it the second Chinese Bank to operate out of Dar es Salaam.
Policies
Earlier this month, Denmark froze funding to Tanzania, announced it was withholding $10 million worth of aid money over concerns about policies that threaten gay people.
The European Union on the other hand has also launched a comprehensive review of its policies towards Tanzania over concerns about rights abuses.
It announced that Dar government pressure had led to the “forced departure” of its ambassador.
The World Bank, on the other hand, put a planned $300 million loan for an education project on hold, later announcing that a cautious agreement had been reached to get the loan process back on track after Tanzania agreed to reconsider the legislation, which prohibits criticism of official statistics. Statistics Acts, which was passed by parliament in September, imposes heavy fines on people who challenge the accuracy of official data released by the government. The World Bank argued that the law was counterproductive.
China Dasheng Bank Ltd entry is now seen as Dar attempt to lure more capital from Beijing and also make it easy for funding and Foreign Direct Investment from China as the new bank seeks to become a big player in Renmbi clearance.

“The thing that makes you happy about their aid is that it is not tied to any conditions. When they decide to give you (assistance), they just give you,” Magufuli said, according to a statement posted on State House’s website.
He delivered the comments at the launch of a new library at the University of Dar es Salaam built at a cost of 93.6 billion Tanzanian shillings ($40.61 million) with the help of the Chinese government, the president’s office said.
In recent weeks, Western donors have increasingly put pressure on Tanzania over what they say is the declining human rights situation there.

Earlier this month, Denmark froze funding to Tanzania, saying it was withholding $10 million worth of aid money over concerns about policies that threaten gay people.
The European Union has also launched a comprehensive review of its policies towards Tanzania over concerns about rights abuses. The EU announced the decision saying that government pressure had led to the “forced departure” of its ambassador.
Meanwhile, the World Bank put a planned $300 million loan for an education project on hold, partly in response to a law preventing pregnant girls from returning to school.
The lender later said a cautious agreement had been reached to get the loan process back on track after Tanzania agreed to reconsider the legislation.
Magufuli said on Tuesday his government will continue to develop and cultivate its good relationship with China.

“They have helped us in a lot of other areas of development,” he said.
China has dramatically increased its involvement in Africa in the past decade, funding major infrastructure projects across the continent. Beijing’s critics say its projects have pushed some African countries too deeply into debt.

Wewe ni pumbavu ya mwaka!. What does trumps lawyer & his personal legal issues have to do with US Foreign Policy? Hehehe sit down somewhere & take notes 📝
Whether Trump or The next USA in president 2020,...USA’s main foreign Agenda for the next 10years is to counter China’s influence in Africa.
US Congress has already allocated $60 billion dollars for that. The next phase sasa ni kupanga where the money will go. Ndio unaskia powerhouses, hapo ndio mambo inaanza.
