Update at the end
Creepy porn lawyer Michael Avenatti was arrested on charges of domestic violence on Wednesday. The alleged victim is an unnamed woman.
TMZ, the media outlet that had the original scoop, wrote of a second confrontation that seems to incriminate Avenatti (not that we need evidence or due process):
Our sources say the alleged incident occurred Tuesday night, but there was another confrontation Wednesday between the two at an exclusive apartment building in the Century City area of L.A.

We’re told Wednesday afternoon the woman was on the sidewalk on her cellphone with sunglasses covering her eyes, sobbing and screaming on the phone, “I can’t believe you did this to me. I’m going to get a restraining order against you.”
Also, Avenatti basically confessed. He said she hit him first. Anyway, we always have to believe the women.
We’re told security brought her inside the building, took her upstairs and Michael showed up 5 minutes later and ran into the building. He screamed repeatedly, “She hit me first.” We’re told he angrily added, “This is bulls***, this is f***ing bulls***.” We’re told he tried getting into the elevator but security denied him access.
Cops showed up and escorted Avenatti into a corner of the apartment lobby and spoke with him for 5 to 10 minutes and then took him into custody.
He’s out on $50,000 bail and held a press conference, promising that he would be “fully exonerated.”
Not necessarily! We don’t need evidence. If the woman sounds and looks credible, she is as credible as Julie Swetnick.

Here are a few more:
All that’s left is for him to do now is to admit he’s a misogynist and must be held to account. Avenatti doesn’t need to have a trial. We have enough evidence — his hearsay confession, a woman said he did it, and he himself wants the woman heard and powerful white men must be held to account. Go right to sentencing.
UPDATE
Avenatti said he hasn’t been charged. He’s very worried about TMZ’s standards. Given he has no standards, that’s rich.
There is a lot of inaccurate reporting out there. For example, (1) I have NOT been charged with anything, let alone a felony; (2) Lisa wasn't even with me Tues; etc. Numerous other "facts" being reported are completely bogus. Why is TMZ's news "standard" the new standard?
