Quite a change of fortune for the former cable news darling and wannabe presidential candidate Michael Avenatti. The dude is in federal custody.
Jason McGahan of The Daily Beast tweeted tonight, “Just moments ago ex-Stormy Daniels attorney Michael Avenatti was taken out of the California State Bar Court in LA the custody of federal agents.”
“Avenatti was taken into federal custody around 6pm PST during a break in testimony in a disciplinary case in which he was testifying to accusations he stole hundreds of thousands of dollars from a client,” adds McGahan.
