After jury said "we're unable to reach a consensus" (and more deliberation) Avenatti guilty of wire fraud and identity theft

 





Michael Avenatti was found guilty in the SDNY of wire fraud and aggravated identity theft, the charges arising out of his representation of Stephanie Clifford a/k/a Stormy Daniels.

Avenatti to surrender by Monday; sentencing on May 24, 2022.

The jury, after 4-hours of celebration deliberation, announced to the court they were deadlocked but were sent back to deliberate yesterday. Yesterday afternoon, they requested a transcript of "everything Stormy Daniels ever said in court", as well as a clarification of "good faith".

Today (Friday) they reached a verdict on both counts as a redfaced Avenatti listened and a supporter cried softly.

Two trials down, 2-to go.
