The lowlight of this scumbag’s charges is this one–>
The most glaring example of deception and fraud was described in the indictment as scheming Avenatti allegedly did to deprive clients of money they were due from legal settlements or sales of stock and the actions he took to cover his tracks.
In a case involving one client, Avenatti allegedly funneled a $2.75 million settlement into his bank accounts and spent $2.5 million on a private airplane, the indictment said.
Although Avenatti was due a portion of settlement funds for his work, the charges said he paid only a fraction of the money clients were due in some cases and strung them along while they waited to be paid.
Avenatti allegedly drained a $4 million settlement he negotiated in 2015 on behalf of Geoffrey Johnson, who was paralyzed after trying to kill himself in the Los Angeles County jail, the indictment said. Johnson was referred to as “Client 1” in the indictment, but was named at a recent court hearing involving the money Avenatti was ordered to pay his former partner.
Until last month, Avenatti had only provided $124,000 over 69 payments to Johnson, the indictment said.
Well I’m disappointed, to say the least. He seemed like an upstanding citizen…
of hell
I’m looking forward to an avalanche of Democrat indictments in the coming years. With each new one, my confidence in our survival nudges up just a wee bit.
…charges are nice, @Jimmy, but let’s see some actual prison time, too, and no shock probation by Obama judges, either…
This can’t be the end of the Creepy Porn Lawyer’s political career! New Hampshire and Iowa need you. The Socialist-Demographic-Reparations Party needs you! Come back, Creepy Porn Lawyer! The Clown Car won’t be the same without you. CNN and MSNBC are losing viewers without your wise commentary. Come back, Creepy Porn Lawyer!
Apologies to George Stevens and Brandon De Wilde and Alan Ladd.

And that, @Jimmy, is why we are doomed.
^ I’m not sure what that means, but it seems quite cynical. Plus, ‘our problem’ is not about me. So, I see your comment “as not even wrong.” It’s irrelevant.
Meer speed-bumps on the Route 666 road to Hell, America.
