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 His bail was revoked and Avenatti was at MCC before the start of the trial because he was found to have committed a bail violation in his California case.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.

As Sam Kinison might scream: “IT’S A JAIL! IT’S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE NICE! THAT’S WHY THEY CALL IT JAIL! IF JAIL WAS NICE, THEN EVERYONE WOULD WANT TO BE IN ONE BECAUSE THEY TAKE CARE OF YOU AND EVERYTHING IS FREE!JEEZ ...”
Lucky for CPL, there are cell mates who will find his unwashed life style on the hot matrix.
Even if Avenatti had a shower or a dozen showers, he’d still stink!
I’m glad someone is looking out for the rats’ welfare.
Ewwwww. Even Stormy Daniels wouldn’t touch that.
