Michael Cohen is a spectator at Michael Avanatti’s fraud trial.

Reporters in the courtroom witnessed a peculiar exchange as Avenatti greeted Cohen by inquiring about his “Donald Trump kneepads.” Cohen addressed Avenatti’s remark outside the federal courthouse, declaring, “[Avenatti’s] shown himself to be the dirtbag everybody expected him to be.” Cohen also claimed he didn’t know what Avenatti meant by the “prison humor” kneepad remark. Avenatti could face 22 years behind bars for wire fraud and identity theft if found guilty at trial.
