Michael Avenatti Accused of Attempting to Extort Millions From Nike
By Marc Tracy
March 25, 2019
Federal prosecutors have accused Michael Avenatti, the attorney known for representing Stormy Daniels in her lawsuits against President Trump, of attempting to extort millions of dollars from Nike by threatening negative publicity on the eve of an earnings call and the N.C.A.A. men’s basketball tournament.
In court documents filed Monday, prosecutors in the United States District for the Southern District of New York said that Mr. Avenatti and a client, a former A.A.U. basketball coach, said they had evidence that Nike employees had funneled money to recruits in exchange for their commitments to college teams sponsored by Nike and that they would release them in order to damage Nike’s reputation and market capitalization unless Nike paid them at least $22.5 million.
Mr. Avenatti attempted to extract the money “by threatening to use his ability to garner publicity to inflict substantial financial and reputational harm on the company if his demands were not met,” prosecutors said in a statement.
In a tweet on Monday, Mr. Avenatti had announced that he would hold a news conference on Tuesday to accuse Nike of “a major high school/college basketball scandal.”

Except he was smart enough to avoid toll booths. (His personality is much more Santino than Michael.)
Best part is this came from SDNY.

I remember when this ambulance chaser was seriously putting moves together to run for President.
It was funny then and is even more hilarious now.
