“What many of you may not be aware of is the fact that I can personally confirm that the ONLY reason Michael Cohen ‘turned on’ the President of the United States is because Mueller threatened to throw his wife in jail for up to 30 years. Period,” Patton posted on Jan. 18.

“She is the co-guarantor of a $20M personal loan that Mueller discovered Michael secured back in 2015 by falsely inflating the value of his taxi medallions—effectively making her part & parcel to the federal charge of ‘Making False Statements to a Financial Institution,’ to which Cohen ultimately plead guilty,” she continued, adding that was also the reason a “longtime taxi medallion partner” was granted immunity.


So, basically, her crime was that she consigned her husband's loan.

As far as I recall, in 2015 NYC taxi medallions were still very expensive. I'm not sure how it was possible to "falsely inflate" their value. Everyone more or less knew their current market value - whoever gave them the 20 mil loan could have found out recent prices in one NY minute. Strange story.
