Michael Avenatti Found Guilty of Defrauding Stormy Daniels
Joshua Caplan 4 Feb 2022
Michael Avenatti, the befallen lawyer who became a Democrat hero for representing pornographic actress Stormy Daniels in her lawsuit against former President Donald Trump, was found guilt by jury on Friday of cheating his former client out of money owed for her book about an alleged affair with Trump.
Avenatti was convicted on charges of wire fraud and aggravated identity in connection with cheating Daniels out of nearly $300,000 in proceeds for her book, Full Disclosure. The disgraced attorney faces a maximum prison penalty of 20 years for the wire fraud charge, while the aggravated identity theft charge carries a two-year jail term.
The AP reports:
Avenatti dumped his lawyers and decided to represent himself shortly after the trial began, setting up a face-to-face showdown with Daniels, his former client, who appeared in a new role as star witness.
Prosecutors portrayed Avenatti as a common thief and serial liar. He countered by seeking to cast himself as a white knight who came to the rescue of Daniels until he turned on her.
Over two days of cross-examination, he questioned her about the allegations that he’d swindled her out of book proceeds — and about ghost stories she’d told for a possible show about the supernatural world.
