Michael Avenatti — the former lawyer of Donald Trump-accuser Stormy Daniels and Brett Kavanaugh-accuser Julie Swetnick who reportedly appeared on CNN and MSNBC over a hundred times over a period of just two months — has gone from “Trump slayer” to defendant in a federal investigation involving an alleged attempt to extort one of the most powerful companies in the world.
According to a legal filing submitted to the Manhattan Federal Court Tuesday, Avenatti was at least $15 million in debt when he allegedly attempted to wring over $20 million from Nike, the trial over which is set to begin next month.
