Mistrial declared in Michael Avenatti’s California embezzlement case

08/24/2021 03:47 PM EDTSANTA ANA, Calif. — A California judge declared a mistrial Tuesday in the embezzlement trial of attorney Michael Avenatti, who is charged with stealing millions in settlement money from his clients.

U.S. District Judge James V. Selna ruled on technical grounds that federal prosecutors failed to turn over relevant financial evidence to Avenatti. Another hearing in the case was set for Sept. 2, and Selna scheduled a tentative new trial date for Oct. 12. It was the second trial in recent months for the 50-year-old lawyer who once represented porn actress Stormy Daniels in her lawsuit against then-President Donald Trump.Federal prosecutors in Southern California have accused Avenatti of cheating five of his clients out of nearly $10 million by negotiating and collecting settlements on their behalf and funneling the payments to accounts he controlled while lying to them about what happened to the money.

Of course who didn’t see this coming? He’s a democrat he will be let go just like Cosby and cuomo

You have to really fuck up to lose this case. Avenatti is clearly guilty...but he knows the Feds have a good chance to fuck things up so he rolled the dice.
