General Hospital Spoilers: Ava Sinks Cates, Incriminating Recording Proves John’s Illegal Sonny Tactics?

General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveal that John “Jagger” Cates (Adam J. Harrington) has become consumed by his desire for revenge on Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). There may have been a time when John was genuinely focused on upholding the law, but those days are long gone.

Now all John can concentrate on is taking Sonny down by any means necessary. It’s clear that Agent Cates is willing to cross almost any line if it means satisfying his desire for Sonny revenge.

Even Ava Jerome (Maura West) is starting to see that it was a mistake to join forces with John, who’s out of control and not making smart decisions anymore.

That was obvious when John arrested Kristina Corinthos-Davis (Kate Mansi) without having any real evidence that the FBI could present to Judge Sullivan (Gita Reddy).

Agent Cates was given 48 hours to come up with the proof or else he could find himself sitting in a jail cell and ultimately be stripped of his badge.

John’s back is up against the wall, so this could pave the way for more blunders and his eventual GH exit.

Agent Cates pushed Ava to change her statement to one that better fits his case against Kristina.

We’re seeing John pressure Ava on things – and that pressure could come back to haunt him if he’s not careful.

Since Ava has a habit of making phone recordings, another one could come in handy here. Ava might secretly record John and use it to show he was coercing her into being his pawn.

If Ava plays this just right, she can look like John’s victim and claim she felt forced to lie, change the crime scene and so much more.

It may seem like big bad John was controlling Ava this whole time.

Since it appears Ava will strike a deal with Sonny soon, he may also be on board with that plan.

Sonny’s priority has become getting rid of “Jagger,” so that could mean negotiating with Ava and getting her help to make it happen.

Will Ava sink John with an incriminating recording at some point? Will Ava prove Agent Cates’ illegal Sonny tactics and make him the villain of the story?

General Hospital spoilers say John will face a downfall one way or another, so we’ll bring you more predictions on Ava’s next move and updates on the bad news that’s brewing.
