No. He's an unindicted co-conspirator in the Cohen case though he is not personally named.

If not personally named I fail to see how he can be an unidicted co-conspirator.

unindicted is what I went to say...so I did hear it correctly. Isn't that one thing what helped bring Nixon down?

guilty plea at court.
Cohen admitted that he committed a crime at the behest of Trump (although Trump wasn't actually named by name) and the fact that a guilty plea was entered means that Trump is a co-conspirator but not yet indicted.
