Domestic Abuse Survivor here and I say leave Avenatti alone....

I have told you before my ex threw me down cement stairs, set my house on fire while I was sleeping, and once took an axe to my locked bedroom door when he was drunk.....I got out alive...

The ME2 deal goes too far at times. We lost Al Franken...both of Avenatti's spouses says this is nuts...The Republicans use ME2 as a tool to get rid of guys they are afraid of....handy, isn't it....

giving operatives like Wohl, Stone, O'Keefe and others the advantage to launch and propel "created scandals" (remember the recent Mueller sexual misbehavior "scandal" Wohl unsuccessfully tried to initiate, anyone?), I think it is only responsible for ALL OF US to take a step back AND LET THE FACTS COME OUT. Even if you really detest Avenatti, fellow Duers, let's not be (potentially) manipulated.

I neither defend nor accuse Avenatti, but I agree. It is too serious a matter to form opinions before the facts come out.

He does not fit the profile IMO.

If he went through 2 marriages and never assaulted his wives, he ain’t that kind of guy.

My mom used to be a family violence prosecutor and helped start a family violence task force in Houston and San Angelo a long time ago so I am not an expert but familiar with FV. If all of his ex-wives say he didn't abuse them then more likely than not I would go with the later that this doesn't seem like his character. Also, seeing as how it came out as well I am somewhat suspicious.
