Michael Avenatti American attorney and entrepreneur
Stormy Daniels American pornographic actress and director Nuccio DiNuzzo/Getty Images Nuccio DiNuzzo/Getty Images California litigator Michael Avenatti, who in 2018 earned stardom as President Donald Trump’s legal foil, was convicted on Friday of stealing funds from adult film actress Stormy Daniels, the client who made him famous.
A Manhattan federal jury found Avenatti guilty of single counts of wire fraud and aggravated identity theft related to his pocketing nearly $300,000 of Daniels’ advance for her memoir, Full Disclosure. He now faces up to 22 years in prison.
Jurors began deliberating Wednesday afternoon and announced they had a verdict just before 3 p.m. on Friday. The decision arrived hours after the jury sent a note to the judge saying one of the 12 panelists was “refusing to look at evidence” and “acting on a feeling.”
Avenatti’s sentencing is scheduled for May 24. On Monday, he must surrender to the U.S. Marshals in the Central District of California, where he faces a retrial on charges that he stole millions of dollars from several clients.

Already, during the Avenatti time of fame, I have read analysis somewhere, that he was using Stormy for his own goals, which were not aligned to hers. The lawyers are supposed to put the interest of the client first, he never did. Later, it was found that we was stealing form clients.
Obviously a total crook!
News media should apologize to ever giving him any time!
Helps. Biden pardons him and then Avanatti comes out with a resume enhancer and “street cred.”
I've always thought that the book deal was a payoff from the Democrats for her to tell her crazy story. They weren't concerned about selling any books.
By Hook or by Crook!
Even better Karma would be if the 'Sistas,' decided to introduce rising prison laundry room star Mikey Avenatti in their next porno.
SO Avenatti took actually a few %age points more than would’ve been his 1/3 fee from a settlement, He used the advance as if it were the adjudicated award from the court. I will bet that was his thinking.
When he was seen as a balls-to-the-wall Trump antagonist he was talked about gushingly by some of the CNN Chickie-poos as already a possible Presidential candidate against Trump, believe it or not. I will try to find the footage. COulda been MSNBC though.
Wondering of someone was paid to ‘throw’ the trial.
She spit him out.
In many ways this has been a good week.
“We lost money on the book,” she said.”
So you got sc***** again!?
Karma’s a bitch. Discovery is her evil twin. Hey, chrome dome! Tell us what a sleaze Pres Trump is, hypocrite. Wonder what his Ferrari would go for if it turned up at a Barrett Jackson auction? He’s gonna need that $$$$
If my memory cells are still working, I believe the media and the leftists were touting Michael Avenatti as the next President of the USA in 2020.
My what a disappointment Michael Avenatti has become to his loyalists.
It’s funny, all the small bit players like this get charged and prosecuted, but the real corrupt, like Biden, Obama, Clinton’s, Comey and many others in D.C., all smugly wink and nod at the notion.
Can he execute the office of president from prison?
Two whores with CNN propping them up. One had to win, didn’t someone? My hands are just dirty.
