important statement from wife of Avenatti, via her attorneys

[Grasswire2]

Lawyers for Lisa Storie-Avenatti, his wife, also provided a statement on Wednesday, responding to earlier reports that she was involved in the alleged incident: "Ms. Storie-Avenatti was not subject to any such incident on Tuesday night. Further, she was not at Mr. Avenatti’s apartment on the date that this alleged incident occurred. My client states that there has never been domestic violence in her relationship with Michael and that she has never known Michael to be physically violent toward anyone. My client requests that the media respect her privacy and that of the parties young son."

Finally, Avenatti's first wife, Christine Avenatti-Carlin, also gave a statement on Wednesday, saying, "I’ve known Michael for the last 26 years, we met when he was 21 years old and we were married for 13 years. Michael has always been a loving kind father to our two daughters and husband. He has never been abusive to me or anyone else. He is a very good man.”

1. Thanks for posting.

Sounds like SOMEONE's concerned about Mr. Avenatti!

[Grasswire2]

2. yep

....and discovery in this matter will be a bitch as well.

They could just as easily have tried to kill him at some point.

[yardwork]

3. So both his wife and ex-wife come out in full support of him.

Who accused him?

[Roland99]

7. Current gf apparently

[yardwork]

8. Is he separated from his current wife?

[Roland99]

9. Yes. For several months

They’ve been going thru a divorce. His second

Second wife said he was emotionally abusive

[brush]

11. You'd better read the OP again. Second wife didn't say that in her statment backing him.

[Roland99]

13. Yes. She did. In court papers for their divorce

Multiple affidavits of his temper

[blueinredohio]

15. Where could I read these papers?

[Roland99]

16. ...

For one. Google has more links

4. It was another (3rd) woman allegedly involved. Who knows at this point? Set up or Alan Grayson again

[Grasswire2]

6. means, motive, and opportunity

Aren't those the guiding matters when assessing a crime?

There's certainly PLENTY of motive to set up Michael.

[Hoyt]

10. Possibly. He's been separated from his wife, he owes his law partner millions, his clients are

questionable, he has been on the media circuit, he has delusions of running for Prez, and likely more. Sounds like he's living on the edge and maybe stressed out. I was big on Alan Grayson, even contributed to him from another state, but he too screwed up in the limelight.

I hope you guys are right, but he wouldn't be the first one to screw up like this.

[brush]

12. Best to reserve judgment. Sounds Frankenesque to me, or maybe Ellisonesque...

judging from how his ex and current wife backed him.

Let's see how this turns out.

[Hoyt]

14. We'll find out more about the alleged victim. If she's not the "setup" type, it'll be clearer.

[global1]

17. Sounds Like Someone Was Trying To Get Trump Out Of His Funk.....

they set up Michael to give Trump something to take his mind off the drubbing he got last Tuesday.

[LiberalFighter]

21. Maybe like Gary Hart?

[Cha]

5. Wow.. wtf!

[Liberal In Texas]

18. The truth will eventally come out.

Of course what will be remembered is the lie.
