One of the alleged co-conspirators in the Michael Avenatti extortion case is a California lawyer and longtime CNN analyst “known for representation of celebrity and public figure clients” — including Colin Kaepernick, Michael Jackson and Jussie Smollett, a report says.

Attorney Mark Geragos, 61, was not actually named in the criminal complaint against Avenatti, but two sources familiar with the matter tell The Wall Street Journal that he is the “CC-1” that prosecutors referred to in the document.

According to his website, Geragos has represented “some of the most prominent figures in the world” over the last 30 years. His client list includes rap moguls Suge Knight and Sean “Diddy” Combs, actress Winona Ryder, boxer Mike Tyson, singer Chris Brown and convicted murderer Scott Peterson.

Michael Avenatti just got busted. Mark Geragos is also in trouble.

Geragos already got a sweetheart deal from Nike for Kaep (seriously, how many other long-unemployed athlete have gotten mega-bucks endorsement and signature product deals?!). Why did he, apparently, go back to the Nike well with Avenutti's shakedown? That goes beyond greed to stooooopid greed.

Does this mean he won't be running for President after all? Sad.
