You would think celebrity porn star attorney Michael Avenatti would shut his trap after his arrest in NYC yesterday on charges he attempted to extort Nike. . .
I see Avenatti has shrewdly elected the “well maybe try talking more” strategy.

. . .but nah!
Here he is naming-names and accusing the shoe and apparel giant of paying the Phoenix Suns’ DeAndrew Ayton and the University of Oregon’s Bol Bol, son of NBA legend Manute Bol, before both players got to college:
Ask DeAndre Ayton and Nike about the cash payments to his mother and others. Nike’s attempt at diversion and cover-up will fail miserably once prosecutors realize they have been played by Nike and their lawyers at Boies. This reaches the highest levels of Nike.

Bol Bol and his handlers also received large sums from Nike. The receipts are clear as day. A lot of people at Nike will have to account for their criminal conduct, starting with Carlton DeBose & moving higher up. The diversion charade they orchestrated against me will be exposed

It’s rather nice of Avenatti to give prosecutors some additional evidence:
Wait, Avenatti is actually making good on his blackmail threats despite getting caught???

Can’t be blackmail if you’re not going to get any money from Nike because you’ve been arrested for trying to blackmail them.

Criminal defense attorney @beyondreasdoubt adds:
My god is he tweeting this info? How does he not understand those tweets will be evidence at his trial? They are now proof of what info he had in support of his extortion. I knew he was dumb, but just wow

He’s got spunk!
Avenatti later warned of SEC troubles for Nike:
The corruption at Nike was rampant with Merl Code and increased with his apprentice DeBose after Code left for Adiddas. Those above DeBose knew all about the payments. Nike conspired to route many of the payments through a convicted felon. Nike then lied to the government.

If Nike was cooperating with the government for over a year relating to this scandal (they weren’t - this is a lie), where are the disclosures in their SEC filings? There are none. Wait until the SEC begins their investigation & starts asking why Nike hid this info from investors

Good luck, dude.
