Federal prosecutors confirmed on Thursday that investigations into longtime Donald Trump lawyer and "fixer" Michael Cohen is ongoing, Buzzfeed News reports.
Cohen entered into a plea agreement with Cohen in August, but the investigation and grand jury remain active.
Prosecutors for the Southern District of New York made the admission in a filing opposing media organization requests to unseal the search warrants executed against Cohen.
"This request encompasses materials that, if disclosed, would reveal a substantial amount of non-public, sensitive detail about an ongoing grand jury investigation, as well as information about numerous uncharged third parties," prosecutors wrote.
SDNY prosecutors added, "there is a significant interest in maintaining the materials under seal, because disclosure could prejudice an ongoing investigation in concrete, identifiable ways."
