A judge has allowed Michael Avenatti to be temporarily freed from a federal jail in New York City and to ride out the coronavirus epidemic at a friend’s house in Los Angeles.

...

On Friday, U.S. District Judge James Selna said Avenatti may stay at the home of Jay Mannheimer, near Venice Beach, during the 90-day release period but he first must get tested for the coronavirus illness and be quarantined for 14 days at a Federal Bureau of Prisons facility. He must also post $1-million bond and wear an electronic monitoring bracelet. The judge forbade Avenatti to use any digital devices with internet access.

1. I cannot express how shocked I am about this.

mainly because he is charged with a non-violent offense. Imagine if Trump were to be arrested and forbidden to uae such devices.
