CNN Darling Michael Avenatti Convicted Of Stealing Stormy Daniels' Book Proceeds, Faces 22 Years Jail

Jumping way ahead in the timeline..



December, Daniels's manager, acting on her behalf, sent an email to the publisher and agent stating that she had not received the third payment. The publisher and agent were confused; they thought perhaps Daniels was asking to receive the fourth payment early. The agent called Avenatti, and Avenatti said to relax, that he was dealing with Daniels and that the agent and publisher should not respond to the inquiry from Daniels's manager. So the publisher and agent stayed out of it and did not respond. Meanwhile, Avenatti continued to tell Daniels that the publisher was "resisting" making the third payment but that he, Avenatti, was fighting for her.

The hustle fell apart in February 2019. A frustrated Daniels got in touch with a representative of the publisher, who told Daniels that the third payment had been made long ago. Then Daniels got in touch with the agent, who showed her documentation that the third payment had indeed been made on Sept. 17, 2018. The agent also showed Daniels Avenatti's wiring instructions, complete with Daniels's forged signature, directing that the money be sent to the Avenatti account. The instructions, according to the indictment, "were fraudulently created by Avenatti in order to carry out his scheme to steal funds rightfully owed to his client."

Thus began this particular criminal case against Avenatti. And at some point, presumably, CNN's Brian Stelter stopped taking Avenatti seriously as a contender for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination.

There were many other developments that revealed Avenatti's true character. There was the extortion scheme against Nike, for which Avenatti was found guilty and sentenced to 30 months in prison. There is an upcoming trial on charges that Avenatti also stole from other clients. Given it all, there is simply no doubt what kind of man Michael Avenatti is.

But as the current trial progresses, keep in mind those journalists who gave Avenatti the world — millions of dollars in free publicity — because they fell into a swoon over his Hero of the Resistance act. They abandoned their standards, and loved Avenatti, because they were so consumed by resisting Trump. And they are as much a part of the story as Avenatti himself.

Why did CNN's Brian Stelter stopped taking Avenatti seriously as a contender for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination.  He sounds as good as the others.

While I am happy when any of these dirtballs go to prison...I don't care if they are convicted of jay-walking...I long to see ONE creep being convicted of Treason or Sedition.  Let's get the ball rolling.

Punishment is too light. That's why criminals attempt the crimes to begin with. In my book, forging signature is the same as stealing identity. And, that needs to have a super serious punishment.

I can make an argument for death penalty. But, 22 years (minus good behavior) is not good enough.

Stormy Daniel learned first hand what it's like sleeping with the devil first hand. She got screwed twice..........

After being in the courtroom with Stormy and Avenatti for several days I suspect the jurors went home and took a long hot shower to remove the sleaze they picked up during the trial.
