Michael Avenatti: Celebrity lawyer and former Trump foe gets 14 more years in prison
Tuesday 6 December 2022 04:42, UK
US lawyer Michael Avenatti, who rose to fame representing porn actor Stormy Daniels during her legal battles with Donald Trump, has been sentenced to 14 years in prison.
Already in jail for separate convictions, Avenatti admitted cheating four of his clients out of millions of dollars.
[...]
In one incident, Avenatti collected a $4m (£3.3m) settlement from Los Angeles County for a man who suffered injuries while in custody, and was left paraplegic after a suicide attempt, but Avenatti never told him the money was received.
Instead, authorities said Avenatti used the funds to finance his coffee business and pay personal expenses, and gave the man smaller amounts ranging from $1,000 to $1,900 that he called advances on the broader settlement.
The man, Geoffrey Johnson, told the court: "I am not sure I ever can trust anyone else again."

Harlow allotment owner overwhelmed as donations rise to £160k
17 minutes ago
A woman whose allotment was sabotaged said she was "overwhelmed" after celebrities and members of the public donated more than £160k to her initiative.
Carly Burd helps to feed struggling households in Harlow, Essex.
She was "heartbroken" to find the soil covered in salt just after 300 onions had been planted by local disadvantaged children.
As donations rose she said she was "so grateful and literally lost for words".
The mother-of-three has supplied more than 1,600 people with food parcels since September, through a mixture of crops grown in her garden and donations.
