The lawyer representing porn star Stormy Daniels said Wednesday he has found out the U.S. government obtained text messages, emails, and documents from his client’s former attorney, Keith Davidson.

Furthermore, Michael Avenatti said during an interview on MSNBC that he has “reason to believe” that Davidson was communicating with Michael Cohen, President Trump’s personal lawyer, “as recently as a few days before the FBI raid.”

Avenatti made the revelation while discussing the latest legal proceedings related to his client, Stormy Daniels, who has alleged she had an extramarital affair with President Trump more than a decade ago. Avenatti said there will be a hearing Thursday where he will make an appearance.

…….

Davidson was the lawyer who negotiated with Cohen the confidentiality agreement with which Stormy Daniels received $130,000. He also negotiated the $150,000 McDougal made in August 2016 with the National Enquirer’s parent company, American Media Inc., for the rights to her story, which was not published.

………

Davidson is cooperating with that investigation, the Washington Post reported last week.
