New York: California Lawyer Michael Avenatti was sentenced Friday the accusation that he cheated his valuable client, Stormy Daniels porn actor out nearly $ 300,000 he was supposed to get to write a book about the alleged trump on the former Donald Trump.
The verdict was the defeat of other destruction for California lawyers who had faced a number of legal issues after increasing briefly for fame as one of the leading antagonists of Trump on cable news at the beginning of the Republican government.
Jury, while considering Avenatti’s fate, said that one jury refused to see the evidence and decide on the case based on his feelings and emotions.
In that note, the Jury Fonerson told us the District Judge Jesse M Furman that the Juror “refused to see the evidence and acted in feelings”.
“He did not believe he needed to prove his party used evidence and refused to show us how he came to his conclusion,” said the note.
“There is no proof, all emotions and do not understand this jury work.” At one point in that note, Fanperson jury underlined the first word, saying: “Please help us move forward.” The note comes early in a day full of consideration.
Furman rejected the request by Avenatti, who represented himself, that he called a direct screening.
Instead, Furman told the jury that it had to follow his promises to base the decision about evidence.
The prosecutor was debated that the record, which followed the record a day claiming deadlocked judges on the first charge of wire fraud, was the reason to ask more about the judges and might make him move from the jury if he refused to consider evidence.
The judge said he would follow the “intentional and gradual approach” where the judges were encouraged to follow evidence in a conclusion.
He said if the deadlock persisted, the trial “might be in the court area, but I haven’t thought we were there”.
The judge also warned lawyers on both parties to refrain from the public statement about the evidence after Avenatti complained in a letter to Furman that Daniels appeared in a Friday broadcast interview to complain the jury could punish him for testimony about testimony.
During the two days of testimony, Daniels, whose real name was Stephanie Clifford, said that she sometimes communicated with the dead.
The jury decided whether the prosecutor proved that Avenatti committed wire fraud and aggravating theft of identity by taking nearly $ 300,000 of the $ 800,000 advance payment received by his client for his autobiography.
Avenatti insisted that he had a good reason to pocket a portion of money.
Avenatti often appeared in the cable television news program in 2018 when he represents Daniels in lawsuits against Trump.
The demands of the demands were intended to free Daniels from the terms of payment of the $ 130,000 he received for days before the 2016 presidential election to silence him about the claim that he experienced a sexual meeting with Trump a decade earlier.
Avenatti, 50, is considering running for the president himself when the increase in popularity in a democratic circle was disturbed by his arrest in March 2019 on charges that he tried to squeeze up to $ 25 million from Nike with a threat to damage his reputation if the sports giant did not meet his demands.
On the same day, he was charged in a federal court in California with cheating clients and others from millions of dollars.
Daniels case was carried out later weeks.
In early 2020, Avenatti was punished in the Nike case and sentenced to two and a half years in prison.
He has not served the punishment.
Last year, the experiment at the cost of California ended with a provider.
