Stormy Daniels slapped with cease and desist order following ’60 Minutes’ interview
Adult film star Stormy Daniels sat down with “60 Minutes’” Anderson Cooper last night in a long awaited interview that covered a variety of potentially scandalous tidbits concerning her alleged sexual affair with Donald Trump in 2006. One of those tidbits – said to have raised the ire of now President Donald Trump and especially his personal legal team – is Daniels’ allegation that she was physically threatened with violence from someone in Trump’s camp and told not to go public with her story of an affair with Trump. During the “60 Minutes” interview, Daniels said the threat came to pass back in 2011 inside a Las Vegas parking garage while her infant daughter was present.
ABC News shared portions of the transcript from Daniels’ interview as she remembered the threat and the man who made it.
“And a guy walked up on me and said to me, ‘Leave Trump alone. Forget the story,'” Daniels said. “And then he leaned around and looked at my daughter and said, ‘That’s a beautiful little girl. It’d be a shame if something happened to her mom.’ And then he was gone,” she added.
The porn star went on to say that she took the man’s words as a direct threat and that she was rattled over the confrontation. When asked why she didn’t go to the police with the threat, Daniels said she was afraid.
Daniels said that she didn’t go to the police because she was scared and that she never again saw the man who threatened her, but she said she’d “100 percent” be able to recognize him if she ever saw him again. “Even now, all these years later. If he walked in this door right now, I would instantly know,” she said. ~ NBC News
And although the White House denies any sexual affair between Daniels and Trump ever took place, the porn star was slapped with a cease and desist order following her “60 Minutes” interview. The author of that order was the lawyer for Michael Cohen, Trump’s personal lawyer. During the interview, Daniels insuated that the man who threatened her came from Trump’s camp or was perhaps orchestrated by Cohen himself. Daniels’ lawyer, Michael Avenatti, has already come forward to confirm that it was not actually Cohen who personally made that threat against Daniels in 2011.
Brent Blakely, Cohen’s attorney, demanded that Daniels apologize for insinuating that his client was behind the threat she described that allegedly took place in a Las Vegas parking lot in 2011.
The letter, which was also sent to Daniel’s attorney, Michael Avenatti, demanded that the actress refrain from making “false and defamatory statements” about Cohen in the future. ~ Fox News
