Necheles had pulled up the wrong transcript and audio snippet to try to illustrate that Daniels had called her lawyer weak-willed — she used another impolite term — in the negotiations over the 2016 deal with Michael Cohen. When the right tape and transcript is found, her voice is not on the tape; it is Cohen and Keith Davidson, her lawyer at the time.
