There was no deal made with the SDNY for Cohen's cooperation, which would have opened the door for Trump's team to discredit Cohen's claims. Cohen made his plea with no guarantee of a lighter sentence which is kinda huge.
That directly contradicts what I've read about his plea deal, that he accepted it under the condition he serve no more than 56 months, iirc.
