	Roy Cohn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cohn's cross-examination of Ethel's brother produced the testimony (later found to be perjured) that was mostly responsible for the Rosenbergs' conviction and execution.
		Cohn, although sometimes thought to have been chosen in part to avoid accusations of an anti-semitic motivation for the investigations, was given free rein in pursuit of investigations.
		Cohn is portrayed in an episode of The X-Files, in which an elderly former FBI agent (Darren McGavin) speaks to Agent Mulder about the early years of the McCarthy era and the beginning of the X-Files.

	Judge Kaufman and the Rosenbergs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-06)
		Cohn was a member of the prosecution team in the Rosenberg case.
		Cohn's posthumous confirmation of those charges, if accepted at face value, would deal a final, crushing blow to the reputation of Judge Kaufman, who Rosenberg case aside, has been a renowned judicial advocate of free speech and civil liberties.
		The conclusion that Roy Cohn was one of the small number of lawyer-criminals providing the mob "life support services" outlined by the Kaufman Commission is a conclusion a reasonable mind could make.

	Dangerous Obsessions - New York Times
		McCarthy and his cause were soon dead, but Cohn, propelled by a peculiar monomania, lived on as before, sitting shank-to-flank with the movers and the shakers, on through the 1950's, 1960's, 1970's and the 1980's, whispering to them sotto voce, behind the hand, brokering their dreams of power.
		By age 23 Cohn was at center stage for the so-called Trial of the Century, the prosecution of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg for delivering atomic secrets to the Soviet Union.
		Cohn says he went straight to the clerk in charge of assigning judges to criminal cases, pulled the right strings, and Judge Kaufman was in.

	Cohn and Schine in the Libraries
		By the time Cohn and Schine got to the libraries, most of them had been thoroughly bowdlerized; what remained to be done scarcely required their attentions.
		Cohn and Schine were a pair to be laughed at, but they made a bitter jest, for they moved about under a crazy-quilted panoply that unmistakably bore, among other devices, the Great Seal of the United States.
		He might have survived these scandals if he had not described Cohn and Schine as "junketeering gumshoes" to a newspaperman during the tour, and he might have survived even this if the State Department had not been in such a panic to get rid of him.

		Cadden explains that when Roy Cohn is subjected to the pinklisting phenomenon, it is not by gay writers of community pride, but "in what passes for the liberal press in the United States"(79).
		Kushner too recognizes that Cohn's death pushed the limits of pinklisting, and pinklisting as fllisting, in that it sparked both homophobic commentary and introspection by the gay community.
		Roy Cohn's experience took place in the center of American politics and moved AIDs from the fate of the gay community to the fate of the country.

	AmericanHeritage.com / Roy Cohn
		Roy Marcus Cohn was born in 1927, the sole, adored offspring of an otherwise loveless marriage between Al Cohn, a soft-spoken Democratic judge, and Dora Marcus, a millionaire’s noisy daughter whose dowry may have included enough of her father’s money to buy her husband his seat on the bench.
		Despite his reputation, she said, Cohn was never really a great lawyer: “I think he was a great bully, who had connections and who frightened … people, and who was … the greatest scrapper and fighter who ever lived.
		Roy Cohn seems to have relished the special loathing his enemies reserved for him, and as these two disappointing books imply, it seems more than likely that on some level he shared fully in it.

	Definition of Roy Cohn
		Cohn's cross-examination of Ethel's brother produced the testimony that was mostly responsible for the Rosenbergs' conviction and execution.
		Cohn and McCarthy targeted many government officials and cultural figures not only for communist sympathies but for homosexual tendencies, sometimes using sexual secrets as a flmail tool to gain informants.
		His denial not only of his sexual identity but of the disease that killed him made Cohn an emblem of conservative hypocrisy to some AIDS activists, such as journalist Randy Shilts and playwright Tony Kushner.
