The raid took place on Monday, with one source telling CNN that documents confiscated might include evidence regarding porn star Stephanie Clifford, commonly known by her stage name Stormy Daniels.

Daniels has recently claimed that in 2006 she and current President Donald Trump had an affair, with the porn star saying that Cohen gave her approximately $130,000 in hush money.
