Perhaps this sounds chauvinistic, but I’m going to put it out there: I don’t know how she does it.
I’m talking about Carrie Cohen, the prosecutor who nailed New York Assembly speaker Sheldon Silver, one of the most powerful political figures in the state. An assistant U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Cohen convinced a jury last fall to find Silverman guilty of seven charges relating to fraud, extortion and money laundering that could put him away for 20 years. (He is scheduled to be sentenced in April.)
