Speaker 1: George. I'm a homegirl that knows a little bit about
Speaker 1: everything and everybody. You don't know if you don't lie
Speaker 1: about that, right Lauren, Hey, y'all, this is Laura la
Speaker 1: Rosa for the Latest with Laura Rosa. I am here
Speaker 1: on the scene at the courthouse following Diddy being denied
Speaker 1: bond for now what a third time, but this time
Speaker 1: being after the verdict has come down. So we talked
Speaker 1: about earlier Diddy being found not guilty on three out
Speaker 1: of five charges, the Rico charge specifically not sticking. He
Speaker 1: was looking at up to life for that Rico conspiracy
Speaker 1: and it did not stick.
Speaker 2: He was convicted for engaging in transportation of individuals for prostitution,
Speaker 2: two accounts of that. Now there's a conversation happening around
Speaker 2: this bond being denied about you know this was this
Speaker 2: fair or not. As we prepare to talk about that,
Speaker 2: I want to take a look behind us, because what
Speaker 2: you see are Diddy's children and Diddy's family are loading
Speaker 2: into these sprinters. Now. When they left earlier from this
Speaker 2: exact scene, the vibe was a bit different. You heard
Speaker 2: people chancing free Diddy, you heard people cheering, You saw
Speaker 2: them dancing I don't know if this will be the
Speaker 2: same exact feeling when they are walking out this time,
Speaker 2: only because the bond has just been denied. And obviously
Speaker 2: that was a very emotional moment for his family who
Speaker 2: thought that their dad, you know, their child's father, their friend,
Speaker 2: their confidant may be coming home until his sentencing happened
Speaker 2: in October. Now let's get on into it. So as
Speaker 2: we came back up into court today, the judge went
Speaker 2: right into it. The judge said, listen, I hear what
Speaker 2: the defense is saying about him being allowed to be
Speaker 2: able to go home until the sentencing happens. The sentencing
Speaker 2: will be early October, right, And Diddy's team has actually
Speaker 2: act for a speedy sentencing because the judge has just
Speaker 2: heard and watched all of this information over the last
Speaker 2: eight weeks, and they're like, while it's fresh in your mind,
Speaker 2: we want to make sure that the sentencing happens soon
Speaker 2: because with their going is, they're gonna want a very
Speaker 2: They're gonna want a sentencing that has some empathy in it.
Speaker 2: They don't want the judge to lose that right. The
Speaker 2: judge made it very clear from the rip that the
Speaker 2: bomb was denied he went into the reasoning and he
Speaker 2: talked about the fact that there was additional violence with
Speaker 2: Jane Doe following the indictment, following the fact that Diddy
Speaker 2: knew that he was under a microscope. They talked about
Speaker 2: the fact that in all of the other cases, and
Speaker 2: Diddy's team argued this in their response, like they argued, down,
Speaker 2: I wish I had a recorder so that you guys
Speaker 2: could hear how Diddy's attorney pled and begged for him
Speaker 2: to be able to go home once the bomb was denied.
Speaker 2: But the judge that, listen, we're really talking about any
Speaker 2: previous case, law, right. They brought up a few other
Speaker 2: cases where a number one you know, Diddy team kept saying,
Speaker 2: this is very exceptional, right, because the circumstances are so
Speaker 2: different here, right, And they said it's exceptional because in
Speaker 2: previous cases pimps were involved. Diddy is not a pimps.
Speaker 2: And they made a point that like the you know,
Speaker 2: in this one per particular case, the pimp that was
Speaker 2: involved made over one point four million dollars did he
Speaker 2: did not make any money off of his acts. They
Speaker 2: also brought up the fact that normally in cases like this,
Speaker 2: there are businesses, business entities that make money off of
Speaker 2: the actions that happen in a ring like this or
Speaker 2: in whatever. This is his prostitution thing that the judge
Speaker 2: and the jury believe that Didd he is guilty of.
Speaker 2: And they made it very clear the only person being
Speaker 2: charged for this and that will serve time for this
Speaker 2: and as serving consequence for this. There's no business entity here.
Speaker 2: It is just Sean Colmes. So they tried to pose
Speaker 2: those two US arguments. Did these team? The judge listened
Speaker 2: and heard them out. Did He's attorney probably went for
Speaker 2: a good twenty thirty minutes. He talks about his kids
Speaker 2: being in the stands and you know his kids, you
Speaker 2: know some of their mothers not being here, talking about
Speaker 2: Kimporter and you know the tragic death of Keimporter and
Speaker 2: them needing their dad around, And even that emotional plea
Speaker 2: it did not work. The judge brought it right back
Speaker 2: around and said, let us not forget where we left
Speaker 2: off before you started this pleat his bond has been denied.
Speaker 2: We basically the court is saying they are afraid that
Speaker 2: Diddy is a danger to the community because of the
Speaker 2: Cassie video, because of his blatant disrespect for the law
Speaker 2: and the court and the government, and his actions following
Speaker 2: the indictment coming down, including his incident with Jane, including
Speaker 2: everything they found in the hotel room when he was arrested.
Speaker 2: After everything went down, They're like, listen, we can't trust it,
Speaker 2: and we won't. We will not. The craziest part of
Speaker 2: this all is that the judge was able to cite
Speaker 2: specific lines, specific lines from the defensive testimony where they
Speaker 2: conceded to the violence, domestic violence, but violence that did
Speaker 2: he did? I thought that that And even during that
Speaker 2: I remember like the third line in did he looked
Speaker 2: over his attorneys and there was one point where his
Speaker 2: attorneys mentioned that did he wanted to speak to the
Speaker 2: judge himself? And then Nicole Westmoreland, who is the black
Speaker 2: woman attorney on did He's team got up and began
Speaker 2: to go have a commerce with Diddy, and I'm assuming
Speaker 2: she was kind of advising him on that if that
Speaker 2: were to happen. It didn't happen. He didn't even get
Speaker 2: the chance. The prosecutors stood ten toes down on we
Speaker 2: will work with his team and the probation offices to
Speaker 2: make sure that he gets a speedy sentencing because we
Speaker 2: hear them, but it is a danger to the community
Speaker 2: to release him, and the judge agreed Diddy will not
Speaker 2: be released on bond. Tuesday, July eighth, there will be
Speaker 2: a virtual hearing where they'll get on and discuss some
Speaker 2: of the sentencing, just the logistics of everything and how
Speaker 2: all that will work. But no, Diddy is not walking
Speaker 2: free today. What's crazy about this? And just having conversations
Speaker 2: outside of the courtroom one of the biggest things, because
Speaker 2: I said it in my last video, I wouldn't have
Speaker 2: been surprised if the judge had given Diddy a bond,
Speaker 2: only because I felt like he had began to almost
Speaker 2: be able to see the full scope of everything, like, yes,
Speaker 2: these things happen. Yes he was caught right handed doing
Speaker 2: some of these things. But the drug addiction come into play?
Speaker 2: Did alcohol come into play? Bad decision making has been
Speaker 2: in play from the very beginning, right, But I began
Speaker 2: to weigh different things that the judge made wait because
Speaker 2: obviously a jury weided they did not convict him on
Speaker 2: some of the more serious charges, right the judge very
Speaker 2: different story, very different story, And I'm not surprised that
Speaker 2: it was denied. I've said in my earlier videos that
Speaker 2: you also like this was brought up earlier. The violence
Speaker 2: and the things that he did and his disregard for
Speaker 2: the law were brought up earlier. That is literally the
Speaker 2: reason and the judge ever brought this up the first
Speaker 2: multiple times that did he was denied bond was because
Speaker 2: of his violence that they saw on camera, and a
Speaker 2: judge did not want to give him a chance to
Speaker 2: endanger anybody else. So we will say lots. We will
Speaker 2: stay here, we will stay on the case physically not here,
Speaker 2: but y'all, I'm gonna keep yall updated with the latest
Speaker 2: because that is what we do. Unfortunately, for his family,
Speaker 2: they will not be celebrated on a holiday weekend with
Speaker 2: their dad, with their grandpa, with their is he a granddad?
Speaker 2: They ain't no granddad with their dad with their you know,
Speaker 2: their their friend with their confidant. But you know, they
Speaker 2: do still have sentencing to look forward to, and I
Speaker 2: think Diddy's team made a really, really good argument about
Speaker 2: making sure the sentencing happened fast while the judge has
Speaker 2: all of these memories and test someone that's fresh in
Speaker 2: his head, because what they're gonna want to hope to
Speaker 2: is is that the sentencing is not harsh. So I'll
Speaker 2: keep y'all updated. Make sure you guys check me out
Speaker 2: on the Breakfast Club. We will be there on Monday,
Speaker 2: July seventh. Back from the break of course, I'll have
