THE ROY COHN I KNEW WAS A SMALL, SAD MANTHE ORIGAL WCH HUNTER‘I’LL FEND THE MOB ANY DAY,’ HE TOLD ME. ‘THEY’RE GOOD AMERINS.’RONALD RADOSHUPDATED MAY 07, 2018 9:04PM EDT / PUBLISHED MAY 06, 2018 5:24PM EDT OPNNANCY MORAN/SPORTS ILLTRATED/GETTYDONALD TMP HAS OFTEN SAID HE NEEDS SOMEONE LIKE THE LATE ROY COHN TO REPRENT HIM TODAY. AS FRANK RICH WR, WAS COHN WHO TGHT TMP TO “UNTERPUNCH VICLY, NY EVERYTHG, STIFF YOUR CREDORS, MANIPULATE THE TABLOIDS.” I SAW FIRSTHAND HIS DISREGARD FOR THE LE OF LAW, AND PROPENSY TO LIE WH A STRAIGHT FACE THE ’70S AND ’80S WHILE DOG REARCH ON THE TRIAL OF ETHEL AND JULI ROSENBERG FOR WHAT BEME A BOOK I WROTE WH THE LATE JOYCE MILTON, THE ROSENBERG FILE. I HAD BEGUN THE PROJECT AS AN ARTICLE WH JOURNALIST SOL STERN. IN 1978, WE WENT TO SEE COHN—WHO HAD FIRST E TO ATTENTN HIS EARLY TWENTI WHILE SERVG AS ONE OF THE ROSENBERGS’ PROSECUTORS— THE EAST SI MANHATTAN TOWNHOE THAT SERVED AS BOTH HIS OFFICE AND HIS HOME. WHEN WE WALKED TO THE WAG AREA, WE FOUND MEMBERS OF THE GAMBO CRIME FAY AND THEIR BODYGUARDS WAG TO SEE HIM. WE EXPECTED THAT SCE THEY WERE THERE BEFORE AND HAD ALREADY BEEN WAG FOR SOME TIME TO GO OVER LEGAL ISSU WH COHN, WE WOULD HAVE QUE A LENGTHY WA.WHEN COHN EMERGED, THE GAMBO GROUP GOT UP OM THEIR SEATS, READY TO GO TO COHN’S OFFICE. COHN, HOWEVER, MOTNED WH HIS HANDS THAT THEY SHOULD S DOWN. POTG TO STERN AND ME, COHN SAID: “THE GENTLEMEN ARE OM THE NEW YORK TIM, AND THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT. YOU’LL HAVE TO WA. THE PRS FIRST.” WHEN WE SAT DOWN, COHN IMMEDIATELY BRAGGED TO THAT “EVEN IF I HAD CID TO BE A FENSE ATTORNEY FOR THE ROSENBERGS, THEY WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET OFF.” HE ADD: “NOT THAT I EVER WOULD HAVE THOUGHT TO FEND THEM. I’LL FEND THE MOB ANY DAY. THEY’RE GOOD AMERINS.”BEHD HIM WAS A MENAGERIE OF STUFFED ANIMALS, AND WALLS LED WH PHOTOS OF HIM WH J. EDGAR HOOVER AND SEN. JOSEPH MCCARTHY, WHO HAD CHOSEN THE 24-YEAR-OLD LAWYER—H OM HIS ROSENBERG TRIAL W—TO JO THE SENATE PERMANENT SUBMTEE ON INVTIGATNS AND HIS CSA AGAST COMMUNISTS, REAL AND IMAGED.COHN’S AIS WERE ALL YOUNG, GAY MEN. AS ROGER STONE LATER RELLED, COHN BELIEVED “GAYS WERE WEAK, EFFEMATE. HE ALWAYS SEEMED TO HAVE THE YOUNG BLOND BOYS AROUND. IT JT WASN’T DISCSED.” COHN, WHO EVENTUALLY DIED OF AIDS WHILE SISTG HE HAD LIVER NCER, WAS A FIERCE OPPONENT OF GAY RIGHTS WHO REGULARLY ENGAGED VIC GAY-BAG AND HIMSELF ED EVERY ROGATORY TERM WHEN SPEAKG OF GAY MEN.WHEN WE BEGAN OUR TERVIEW WH COHN, HE PRENTED HIMSELF AS HE OFTEN DID, AS THE LEAD ATTORNEY FOR THE ROSENBERG PROSECUTN. THAT WAS NOT TE. THE SENR PROSECUTOR WAS SOUTHERN DISTRICT U.S. ATTORNEY IRVG SAYPOL, WHO TIME LLED “THE NATN’S NUMBER ONE LEGAL HUNTER OF TOP COMMUNISTS.” SAYPOL, THOUGH, HAD HIS OWN “PROCLIVI FOR PUBLICY,” AS THE FBI PUT , SO WAS WILLG TO LET THE YOUNG COHN TALK UP HIS ROLE SCE THE BOSS KNEW HIS ASSISTANT U.S. ATTORNEY MOVED Fé SOCIETY CIRCL AND WAS IENDLY WH GOSSIP LUMNIST LEONARD LYONS.COHN’S NDUCT DURG THE ROSENBERG TRIAL WAS, IF NOT ILLEGAL, HIGHLY UHIL. THE FBI BELIEVED HE HAD ENGAGED EX PARTE MUNITN WH THE TRIAL JUDGE TO MAKE CLEAR HE FAVORED PAL SENTENC FOR BOTH ROSENBERGS AND -FENDANT MORTON SOBELL. COHN, WHO OFTEN POTED TO FBI REPORTS RELEASED ABOUT THE SE AS PROOF OF PNAGE ACTIVY BY ROSENBERG AND HIS ACPLIC, LLED THE BURE’S REPORTS ABOUT HIS OWN UHIL ACTS “HEARSAY” AND “UNSUPPORTED SPECULATN.”AND WHILE THE JUDGE HAD ALSO TALKED TO OTHER ATTORNEYS, COHN WANTED TO BE KNOWN THAT, WHILE HE DIDN’T DO , HE ALSO WANTED CRED FOR THE THG HE SAYS HE DIDN’T DO. “I… WAS THE ONLY ONE,” HE TOLD , “WHO ULD THEORETILLY HAVE HAD SUCH [EX PARTE] NTACT.” THIS IS THE EPISO THAT PLAYWRIGHT TONY KHNER REFERS TO THE PLAY ANGELS AMERI WHEN HE HAS HIS COHN CHARACTER SAY: “WAS LEGAL? FUCK LEGAL. AM I A NICE MAN. FUCK NICE… YOU WANT TO BE NICE, OR DO YOU WANT TO BE EFFECTIVE?” IN 1983, THE ROSENBERG FILE WAS PUBLISHED AND I WAS SENT ON A BOOK TOUR. MUCH TO MY SURPRISE, AT LEAST THE FIRST UPLE TIM, I WALKED TO SEVERAL RAD AND TV STUDS TO FD ROY COHN THERE, WAG TO OFFER HIS TAKE ON OUR BOOK.COHN WAS ADAMANT THAT WE GOT ONE THG WRONG. OUR BOOK SCRIBED HOW JULI ROSENBERG HAD PUT TOGETHER A MAJOR SPY WORK FOR SOVIET TELLIGENCE, ONE THAT WAS SUCCSFUL GIVG THE SOVIETS TOP-LEVEL ARY SECRETS, AS WELL AS WHATEVER THEY ULD GET REGARDG THE MANHATTAN PROJECT OM ETHEL’S BROTHER, DAVID GREENGLASS. ETHEL, AS HAS BEEN SHOWN SCE THEN, FULLY KNEW OF HER HBAND’S ACTIVY AS A SPY, AND HAD REMEND TO HER SISTER--LAW RUTH GREENGLASS THAT SHE URGE HER HBAND DAVID TO BEE A SPY. ETHEL HAD ALSO REMEND POTENTIAL RECS TO JULI’ SOVIET HANDLER AND WAS PRENT WHEN MATERIAL GATHERED BY JULI’ RG WAS PREPARED FOR TRANSMISSN TO THE SOVIETS. ALTHOUGH GUILTY OF “NSPIRACY TO M PNAGE,” SHE WAS A PERIPHERAL FIGURE, WHO WAS DICTED THE HOPE THAT HER ARRT WOULD SERVE AS A LEVER THAT MIGHT PRSURE JULI TO NFS. COHN DID NOT SEE THAT WAY. HE SISTED, DISREGARDG EVINCE ENTIRELY, THAT THE WHOLE ROSENBERG SPY OPERATN WAS PUT TOGETHER AND N BY ETHEL ROSENBERG. “THERE IS SIMPLY NO EVINCE FOR THAT,” I WOULD RPOND. COHN’S RETORT: “I SAT THAT URTROOM EVERY DAY AND LOOKED AT ETHEL’S EY. LOOKG AT HER, WAS MORE THAN CLEAR THAT SHE ALONE WAS THE RGLEAR, WHO LED JULI AROUND BY A LEASH.” COHN WOULD REPEAT THIS AT EVERY APPEARANCE I HAD WH HIM, AS IF THE FACTS AND EVINCE WERE TOTALLY IRRELEVANT. PERHAPS HE NEED TO SAY THAT TO ASSUAGE HIS NSCIENCE, SCE HE WAS ADAMANT HIS REMENDATN TO JUDGE KFMAN THAT SHE TOO BE GIVEN A ATH SENTENCE. REPEATG A BLATANT LIE, EVINTLY, WAS SUFFICIENT FOR COHN TO BELIEVE THE PUBLIC WOULD SEE HIS WAY AND THAT THE WAY HE SAW WAS AT LEAST SOME SIGNIFINT SENSE THE TTH. FALLY, AT ONE SUCH RAD TERVIEW NEW YORK CY, COHN ME TO THE STUD A STATE OF SPAIR. “WHAT’S BOTHERG YOU, ROY?” I ASKED. COHN REFERRED TO THE LARGE GLASS STANDS AT NEW YORK CY B STOPS, WHICH AT THE TIME WERE PLASTERED ON THE OUTSI WH FULL SIZE PHOTOS OF FAMO PEOPLE PRENT AND PAST. THAT WEEK, ONE OF THEM WAS ROY COHN, WHO TOLD ME THAT “I’VE JT E OM STANDG AT A SHELTER WH MY PHOTO FOR FIVE HOURS, AND NOT ONE PERSON REGNIZED ME OR ME UP TO SAY ANYTHG.” RONALD RADOSH
