		</div><p>Donald Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen has been sentenced to three years in prison for crimes including hush-money payments that US prosecutors say Mr Trump ordered.</p>
<p>US District Judge William H Pauley III said that Michael Cohen deserved a harsh punishment for crimes including tax evasion, lying to Congress and arranging illicit payments to silence women who posed a risk to Mr Trump&#8217;s presidential campaign.</p>
<p>The judge rejected arguments by Cohen&#8217;s lawyers that he should be spared jail time because he cooperated in multiple federal investigations involving Mr Trump.</p>
<p>Cohen said his &#8220;blind loyalty&#8221; to Mr Trump made him feel a duty to &#8220;cover up&#8221; the president&#8217;s &#8220;dirty deeds&#8221;.</p>
<p>Cohen&#8217;s crimes included evading $1.4m in taxes and misleading Congress about his talks with Russians about a Trump skyscraper project in Moscow.</p>
<p>Mr Trump had called for a tough sentence for Cohen, whom he labelled a liar.</p>
