Cohn’s "bulletproof" reputation eventually
shattered in the mid-1980s:
Disbarment:In 1986, the New York Supreme Court disbarred him
for unethical and "reprehensible" conduct, specifically for
attempting to defraud a dying client by forcing him to sign a will
amendment in a hospital room.
Death:He
died five weeks later, on August 2, 1986, at the age of 59. While
he publicly insisted he was suffering from liver cancer, he
actually died of
AIDS-related
complications
