The ex-lawyer once represented Stormy Daniels against the former president. 
Disgraced lawyer Michael Avenatti has been sentenced to 14 years in federal prison for defrauding his clients and for obstructing IRS efforts to collect payroll taxes from his coffee business. 
He was also ordered to pay $7 million in restitution. 
The sentence will run consecutively with his combined five-year sentence in New York for stealing from Stormy Daniels and for extorting Nike.

    So he’ll be spending the next 19 years behind bars. There is justice after all.

    I saw how bitter he was towards Trump. I hope he enjoys his vacation courtesy of the federal department of prisons.

Kid should have gotten the jet.
Go figure, another corrupt NY judge.
