Michael Avenatti is suing the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) alleging that he was mistreated during his time in federal custody and was given only one book in confinement - Donald Trump's 'The Art of the Deal'.

Avenatti, the disgraced lawyer known for his representation of adult film star Stormy Daniels in lawsuits against Trump, is seeking $94 million, or $1 million for each day he says he spent in solitary confinement or lockdown while he was in custody at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan in 2020.

Maybe the new soft-on-crime DAs will look at his case and elt him off easy. But, he’s white and was once well-off, so, doubtful that anyone will let him off easy.
