Barbara Jones is the special master appointed to review all of the documents seized from Cohen — including his communications with Trump — to determine if they contained confidential attorney-client privilege.

Jones has deemed more than 1 million “items” seized to not be “privileged or highly personal” after they were taken from three of Cohen’s phones, according to the Post on Wednesday.
