Avenatti gained fame three years ago through his representation of porn star Stormy Daniels against then-President Donald Trump.

Prosecutors noted in a Manhattan federal court submission that Probation Office officials recommend an eight-year prison term for the California attorney who gained fame three years ago through his representation of porn star Stormy Daniels against then-President Donald Trump.

 

“The defendant, a prominent attorney and media personality with a large public following, betrayed his client and sought to enrich himself by weaponizing his public profile in an attempt to extort a publicly-traded company out of tens of millions of dollars. This was an egregious abuse of trust, and it warrants real and serious punishment,” prosecutors wrote.

In his victim impact statement, Franklin said Avenatti's actions “devastated me financially, professionally, and emotionally” and he asked the sentencing judge to consider that in deciding punishment for a man who never apologized to him.

 

“The actions of Mr. Avenatti have destroyed my reputation in my community. Enrollment in my club is at a record low. I no longer feel welcome in places I once felt comfortable. I have struggled with my mental health. My family has suffered. Because of Mr. Avenatti's actions, this ‘scandal’ is now the first result when you Google my name,” he wrote.

Later this year, Avenatti faces trial in Los Angeles federal court on charges alleging he cheated clients and others out of millions of dollars.

Remember, if not for all the rank cowards in the Democratic party Avenatti wouldn't have been able to gain so much traction.

How is THIS the one fucking instance in the entire debacle where people finally get to climax?

 

Between this and the penalty in New York, he'll be in jail for almost twenty years, even with good behavior. I'm no expect but that seems like a fucking eternity for white collar crime. I'm not mad, but yeah, weird that this is the thing that sticks.
