I can personally attest that there was a rat in his cell. A really creepy one.
p.s. Rats can't take showers. They have no opposable thumbs.
Or do they?

NEW YORK - Michael Avenatti was stuck in a "rat-infested" jail cell for a 10-day stretch during a recent lockdown at a federal detention center and was able to shower only twice in about two weeks, his attorney said in a letter to a judge Wednesday.
The details of Avenatti's recent experience at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Lower Manhattan were discussed in a letter sent by his attorney Scott Srebnick to U.S. District Court Judge Paul Gardephe seeking a postponement to a probation background interview Avenatti is supposed to complete. The lockdown in recent weeks was due to a report of a firearm in the federal lockup that was being investigated. As a result, inmates were put under stricter conditions than usual at the troubled facility where notorious accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein killed himself in August.
"The MCC lockdown led to even more cramped and unsanitary conditions at the jail," Srebnick wrote. Avenatti's mandatory presentencing probation interview was scheduled for Thursday and had a deadline for completion by March 17 following his conviction last month in a Nike company blackmail case. He's set to be sentenced in June. Avenatti was convicted on Feb. 14 of transmission of interstate communications with intent to extort, attempted extortion, and honest services wire fraud for demanding as much as $25 million from the sports apparel giant while threatening to expose an alleged corporate scandal. His bail was revoked and Avenatti was at MCC before the start of the trial because he was found to have committed a bail violation in his California case. Avenatti still stands charged in a separate case with defrauding clients in New York, including adult-film star Stormy Daniels when she faced off publicly against President Donald Trump over an alleged hush-money payment.

Man when you commit crimes you gotta first think “can i survive in possibly horrible conditions with an inmate population in which more than half are psychotic? And for how long can I survive that?
Then you either do the crime, do a crime that has a sentence you can live with or do no crime.
It’s pretty simple.
Who is driving his Avanti these days?
He didn’t want to drop the soap
Poor widdle baby. Tiny violins are playing.

Steely Dan should have made a song out of this.
Fake news.
Jeffrey Epstein didn’t kill himself.
any time you try a decent crime, you got fifty ways you’re gonna screw up. If you think of twenty-five of them, then you’re a genius... and you ain’t no genius.
That’s cruel and demeaning. To the rats.
There were rats there?
The judge let him have conjugal visits?
I’m sure the rats didn’t have it too easy either.
Aw, poor CPL. I haz a sad for him.
Maybe CPL can plead that he was taken "temporary unsanitary"...
Where is the problem??
Welcome to prison.
Prison is for criminals.
Criminals in prison do not live the high life.
the Metropolitan Correctional Center doesn’t have a CNN Green Room?
Have the rats started complaining yet?
Wasn’t that the same place that they kept Paul Mannafort during his trial as a torture technique to get him to plead to the second set of charges?
How does he rate conjugal visits?
