NEW YORK - The government’s star witness in Michael Avenatti’s extortion trial conceded on Friday he wanted to expose Nike Inc’s alleged illegal payments to families of college basketball recruits long before he hired the celebrity lawyer.
“Do you have any doubt that the defendant did not mention any of those things at any time?” Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert Sobelman asked Franklin, following the coach’s cross-examination by Avenatti’s lawyer.The trial in Manhattan federal court will resume on Monday, the ninth day of testimony. The defense has maintained that Avenatti was simply acting as a lawyer, representing Franklin in negotiations.
He hired Avenatti after Nike stopped sponsoring California Supreme, the executives rebuffed his entreaties and Slusher referred him to the Beaverton, Oregon-based company’s law firm.
