Michael Avenatti, a Trump critic and the attorney for adult film star Stormy Daniels, was reportedly arrested Wednesday on domestic violence charges.

A report against Avenatti regarding an alleged encounter on Tuesday was filed by his estranged wife, TMZ reported, citing law enforcement sources.

An LAPD public information officer confirmed to Fox News that an individual had been arrested on domestic violence charges. The officer did not confirm that the individual was Avenatti, saying that the ID would be released after booking.

The individual was arrested Wednesday following an incident reported Tuesday, the LAPD said.

Avenatti did not immediately respond to Fox News’ request for comment.

No. We should insist upon the presumption of innocence.

Or be worse than the hypocrites of which we complain.

Hannity: Avenatti ‘Deserves Presumption of Innocence,’ I Wonder if He’ll Want Treatment He Gave to Kavanaugh
by WILLIAM HANCHETT 14 Nov 2018

https://www.breitbart.com/video/201...-if-hell-want-treatment-he-gave-to-kavanaugh/


On Wednesday, Fox News Channel host Sean Hannity stated that Michael Avenatti should receive due process and the presumption of innocence and wondered if Avenatti would apply the same standard to himself that he applied to then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh or prefer due process and the presumption of innocence.

Hannity said, “I will be consistent on the issues of due process and the presumption of innocence. But one can only wonder if now maybe Michael Avenatti would apply the same standard to himself that he applied to Justice Kavanaugh, or maybe tonight he would prefer that the country give him due process and the presumption of innocence. Or will you lock yourself up and just throw away the key? I believe he deserves presumption of innocence, due process. Let the legal system do their job, and hope and pray that the right justice and answer comes through.”

Alyssa Milano Disavows Michael Avenatti After Domestic Violence Arrest: ‘Totally Disgusting’

Actress and far-left activist Alyssa Milano disavowed left-wing lawyer and 2020 presidential hopeful Michael Avenatti on Wednesday, after his arrest over allegations of domestic violence.
Avenatti, who has become a darling within various left-wing circles for his work representing porn actress Stormy Daniels in her case against her President Donald Trump, was arrested by the LAPD on Wednesday on charges of domestic violence after he allegedly left a woman “swollen and bruised.”

“Totally disgusting,” Milano tweeted. “And before anyone asks me, yes, I’m disavowing Avenatti. I do not care what side he’s on. #Basta.”

Milano’s use of the word #basta was also a reference to Avenatti, who frequently ends his Twitter posts with the word, meaning “enough” in Spanish. The pair recently appeared together for a protest outside the White House against the Trump administration.

After posting $50,000 in bail, Avenatti publicly denied the charges and vowed to clear his name.

“I have never struck a woman. I never will strike a woman,” he told reporters. “I am looking forward to a full investigation, at which point I am confident that I will be fully exonerated.”

The case will likely deal a fatal blow to Avenatti’s presidential ambitions, with the 47-year-old previously claiming that he would “absolutely” beat Donald Trump in a 2020 run-off. According to polling data released this week before the allegations emerged, zero percent of Democrats said they want him as their nominee.

It is not the first time that Milano, who has become one of Hollywood’s leading anti-Trump activists, has chosen to disavow figures on the left. Just last week, Milano distanced herself from the Women’s March over its close connections to the anti-Semitic activist Louis Farrakhan.

“Any time that there is any bigotry or anti-Semitism in that respect, it needs to be called out and addressed,” she said in an interview with The Advocate. “I’m disappointed in the leadership of the Women’s March that they haven’t done it adequately.”

My post was ambiguous so I edited it for clarity.

We should insist upon the presumption of innocence or pure principles.
Yes, Avanatti is an Asshole. But our Constitution doesn't exempt assholes or fools from equal application of the law.

Agree, Franc, CNN needs to have a new clown act with him and Acosta as the stars!!

But, but, but the left tells us, no they insist that we all believe the woman. So, old TR, for once, chooses to listen to the left's own advice and do so. No, they tell me not to do so. Jeez, Franc, I am so confused here. What should I do?

TR, the left always says: "________(fill in the blank) for me but not for thee".
