Here’s more information on just why Michael Avenatti is in trouble over “his” plane.
Starr Aviation has filed a complaint against Avenatti, alleging that he took $2.5 million that was supposed to go to Alexis Gardner, who is the ex-wife or girlfriend of Miami Heat star and Gastonia native Hassan Whiteside (we haven’t been able to determine the nature of their relationship)
He apparently told Gardner that she would get monthly installments but she only got $194,000. The rest allegedly went to Avenatti’s private plane via his holding company.
Gardner is understandably trying to recover the money.
