Michael Avenatti Tag

Michael Avenatti, the Stormy Daniels lawyer, held up as a hero by the media under Trump, is now facing real prison time following his conviction for extorting Nike. Prosecutors are asking for a 'substantial' sentence in the case. Let us never forget that this guy was seriously considered a contender for the Democratic nomination at one point.

Federal agents arrested Michael Avenatti on Tuesday evening or violating the terms of his release:
The arrest occurred outside the disciplinary hearing in which the State Bar of California has accused the hard-charging, tough-talking attorney of using a doctored document to scam a client out of nearly $840,000, funneling money from a lawsuit settlement fund to his own personal use.
