Trump's lawyers send subpoena to the WRONG person in hunt for evidence in former President's hush money case prompting Brooklyn man to toy with dumbfounded attorneys

A Brooklyn man appears to be having fun with former President Donald Trump's lawyers incorrectly subpoenaing him in his trial in the Stormy Daniels 'hush' money case.

Trump, 77, has denied a 34-count indictment related to him falsifying business records over a $130,000 payment to porn star Stormy Daniels over their alleged affair.

Attorney Todd Blanche, representing the ex-president in this case, sent a subpoena to a man they thought was Manhattan investigator Jeremy Rosenberg in March to get files related to former Trump confidant and fixer Michael Cohen. 

Rosenberg used to investigate financial crimes for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.

However, the Trump defense team appears to have sent the subpoena to Brooklyn man Jeremy Rosenberg, who emphasized that he is a different person by e-mailing them back: 'I don't have any files for you.'

However, the Trump defense team appears to have sent the subpoena to Brooklyn man Jeremy Rosenberg, who emphasized that he is a different person by e-mailing them back: 'I don't have any files for you' 

According to a filing by the attorneys released on Monday, he appears to have taken the cheekiness one step further.

He wrote: 'PS - The phone number you provided was disconnected' before adding 'PPS - I'm keeping the fifteen dollars' in reference to the amount the lawyers sent him so that he could mail them the documents.

Blanche has complained that the Rosenberg they've been trying to reach has shown a 'flippant' attitude toward the proceedings.

However, prosecutor Matthew Colangelo says his team believes they've got the wrong guy.

'The people spoke with Mr. Rosenberg's counsel, who informed the People that Mr. Rosenberg was not, in fact, served with the subpoena, that Mr. Rosenberg had not corresponded with defense counsel, and that Mr. Rosenberg does not have any connection to the Brooklyn address where the subpoena purportedly was served,' Colangelo said in the filing.

The Rosenberg the Trump team want to speak to want to ask him about his suspension in 2023 over sharing his communications on Cohen with Bragg's office, according to the New York Post. 

He worked in the past on the office's prosecution of Trump ally Steve Bannon.

A 20-year detective for the NYPD prior to joining the DA's office, he left at the end of 2023, according to his LinkedIn page.

Monday will put pieces of Donald Trump's real estate empire on the line. Jury selection is also set to begin in the Stormy Daniels 'hush' money case

The payment to Daniels was made just days before the 2016 election and prosecutors claim it amounted to an illegal campaign contribution.

The trial was supposed to begin on March 25th but was delayed until at least mid-April after the US Attorney’s Office in Manhattan released more than 200,000 pages of evidence from its inquiry into Michael Cohen, Trump’s former personal lawyer.

Trump and his lawyers have also torn into Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who brought the case, for trying to bury information that would damage Cohen's credibility. 

Should the trial go ahead it will be the first of four criminal cases that Trump faces.

He is accused of election interference at a court in Washington over his role in the January 6th insurrection but the case is on hold pending a Supreme Court ruling on whether he has immunity.

Trump faces a trial in Florida for mishandling classified documents but it is mired in delays and a tentative date for the trial this summer appears unlikely.

He is also accused of election interference in Georgia, however there is no date yet set and prosecutors have been ensnared in allegations of improper behaviour.

Trump has said that he does not have the money to pay despite claiming to be worth billions of dollars.

Former President Donald Trump appears in Manhattan Supreme Court for a hearing in his upcoming hush money trial brought on by DA Alvin Bragg 

The former president's attorneys called for a delay after the US Attorney's Office released more than 100,000 pages of new evidence, saying they needed an extended time to review the material

The New York State Attorney General, Letitia James, has already moved to start seizing Seven Springs, Trump’s golf course and private estate just north of Manhattan.

Trump could receive a massive boost when his social media company Truth Social floats on the stock market which could net him $3.5 billion.

But the windfall would be on paper only for at least six months due to laws which forbid him from selling too soon.
