This is what 56 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 3: happened today, Okay. The update is both parties are going 57 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 3: to be tried separately. Okay. So Wendy and Eddie a 58 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 3: married couple where the Feds have a ledge that they 59 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 3: both committed insurance fraud. This married couple is now being 60 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 3: tried separately, Okay. Wendy and Eddie, Well, let me start 61 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 3: by saying this. Eddie waved his rights to a speedy trial, okay, 62 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 3: which is being tried within one hundred and eighty days 63 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 3: of being charged. So he waved his rights to a 64 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 3: speedy trial. There was extensive discovery and he wants to 65 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 3: take a deeper dive per the prosecut. 66 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 4: And he's a. 67 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 3: Lawyer, right he's a lawyer. 68 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 2: He's a lawyer. That's interesting. 69 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 3: On the other hand, his wife, Wendy, the housewife, she 70 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 3: wants her trial to start immediately. She did not waive 71 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 3: her right to a speedy trial. The defense and the 72 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:26,799 Speaker 3: prosecution were looking for dates in March this month. However, 73 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 3: they were none available for a jury trial, so Wendy 74 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 3: she would not be able to have a trial as 75 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 3: quickly as she wanted. The original trial day for her 76 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 3: would have been April fifteenth of this year, next month. 77 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 3: Due to the trial schedule, it would have to be 78 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 3: pushed out until May, but she was willing to go 79 00:05:53,720 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 3: to trial soon. With all of that being said, speculation 80 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 3: has always arose, which is are winding Eddie setting themselves 81 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 3: up to have Eddie take the fall? And that's that 82 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 3: has been the question that people have been asking since 83 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 3: the inception. A little update for the two of you, 84 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 3: because I'm not pretty. I'm not sure you two busy 85 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 3: ladies are caught up on the Royal Housewives of Potomac. 86 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: We are not. 87 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 2: I am I. 88 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: Am and. 89 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 4: Let me speak for myself. I am not. 90 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,160 Speaker 3: You're not. But Courtney, did you watch the reunion? Was 91 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 3: three parts? 92 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 2: I did because you know, I am a huge Karen fan. 93 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 3: Okay, Courtney, you know this. So Tyranny, there was a 94 00:06:55,880 --> 00:07:00,080 Speaker 3: scene where the cameras picked up a week after and 95 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 3: they were arrested. When we first did all Live months ago, yep, 96 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:09,280 Speaker 3: and Wendy told her husband, what does this mean for 97 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 3: our marriage? Because I'm no longer the same person after this, 98 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 3: And it was a shock to all of us. I 99 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 3: am all as well, because they were you know this, 100 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 3: they give very much power, a power couple United front. 101 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 3: So for her to say that, we were like, wait, 102 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 3: wait a minute, and now to hear that they're going 103 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 3: to be tried separately, to now hear Eddie wanted to wait. 104 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 3: She wanted to get herself over with. It is this 105 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 3: assumption that will Eddie take the fall, Wendy will be 106 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 3: home with the kids. I know you can't say much, but. 107 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 2: I do have some Yeah, I have some strategic questions 108 00:07:53,640 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 2: when Carlos finishes finish okay, because I hear you Carlos, 109 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 2: and I'm wondering if, if, if it's going to be 110 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 2: like a Joe and Teresa situation. 111 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 3: Explained to Tyranny what that means, Well, a Joe. 112 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 2: And Teresa, you know, Real Housewives of New Jersey, New 113 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 2: Jersey to where he got more. She got like the 114 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 2: Martha Stewart treatment, and he got like a you know, 115 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 2: more time for embezzlement and fraud and all those things 116 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 2: which later led to his deportation. But that was, you know, 117 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 2: that was separate. 118 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 3: And she went to jail first and was able to 119 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 3: stay home with the kids with the kids, and then 120 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 3: when she got home, he had to go to jail. 121 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 2: He had to go to jail. So but here becomes 122 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 2: my question. And because he's a lawyer, I'm curious as 123 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 2: to what you sent me about what prosecution sightings that 124 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 2: they see, Like I'm curious as to what discoveries, the 125 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 2: extensive discoveries, and what that means for them to separate. 126 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 2: So I know you can't speak on open cases, and 127 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 2: this is clearly very open, but what you can educate 128 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 2: us on is strategy. Is this a good strategy to 129 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 2: be tried separately versus together. 130 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 4: Strategically? Right? 131 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 2: So, again, yes, I cannot comment on any specific case, 132 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 2: but just when we are talking about the separance of 133 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 2: trials for co defendings, there are a couple things that 134 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 2: I would say you have to keep in mind And 135 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 2: the first thing is that the burden of proof is 136 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 2: always on the prosecutor. Because these are criminal charges, the 137 00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 2: prosecutor has to prove beyond a using the both doubt 138 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:07,839 Speaker 2: that the defendants actually committed the crime. Anytime you have 139 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 2: co defendants that you have a trial where we're one 140 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 2: trial instead of the trial's being severed, you could run 141 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 2: up into several different issues. So one of the things 142 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:26,199 Speaker 2: is you could confuse the jury. Instead of proving your 143 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 2: burden that someone is actually guilty beyond reasonable doubt, you're 144 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 2: like allowing finger peering, finger pointing between the two defendants. 145 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 4: So that is something that. 146 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 2: Could be problematic in any criminal trial. You also that 147 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 2: evidence is always going to lead. There may be evidence 148 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 2: that there's more damning towards one person than another person 149 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 2: got it, or there may be evidence that isn't as damning. 150 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 2: But it's confusing to a jury when the evidence only 151 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:18,319 Speaker 2: is going to apply to one defendant versus two defendants. 152 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 2: And it's really hard for a jury, even though they 153 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 2: would be given instructions to disregard not impute this evidence 154 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 2: to both defendants. This only it's really hard to unhear 155 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 2: something right no matter what instructures are whatever the instructions are, 156 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 2: So then you have possible spillage of over into each 157 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,200 Speaker 2: defendant's case. 158 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 4: It becomes very messy. 159 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 2: So there's no And again, I know I'm always repeating this. 160 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 2: I'm always repeating this, but I just want the public 161 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,959 Speaker 2: the rain drop to be fair and. 162 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 4: Not to jump to conclusions. Suffering your trials does not 163 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 4: mean you are. 164 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 2: Guilty of anything. It just means that you want to 165 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,839 Speaker 2: be tree it fairly. You want to make sure that 166 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 2: the prosecution meets its burden for each defendant in the 167 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 2: most fair and just manner, and the court is going 168 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 2: to allow that. So it does sound like from a 169 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 2: strategy strategic point of view, this is good. I like 170 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:38,439 Speaker 2: the thought process of confusion. When you add in confusion, 171 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 2: it is harder to prove burden. If I'm saying, well 172 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 2: there is evidence that you knew, You're gonna have to 173 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 2: really prove that I knew, juxtappose my attorney saying well, 174 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 2: I didn't know. Is it likely that it's going to 175 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 2: be the same prosecutor having to try both of these cases. 176 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 2: It's going to be the same prosecutor typically, right, It's 177 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:04,199 Speaker 2: going to. 178 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 4: Be the same prosecution office. 179 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 2: Okay, so there are different district there's one district attorney, 180 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 2: but they are there are different assistant district attorneys, and 181 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 2: so the district attorney may assign different assistant district attorneys 182 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 2: to these cases and or signed the same. It depends 183 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:32,479 Speaker 2: again about the calendars, the trial schedules, the motions for discovery. 184 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 2: If one person can handle that with it being severed, right, 185 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 2: that's going to be so interesting, Carlos, because you know, 186 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 2: we saw we see this oftentimes in high profile cases, 187 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 2: especially when they're separate. It's going to be challenging to 188 00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 2: get you know, unbiased yours within the same district. It's 189 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 2: going to be talked about so much, especially if she 190 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 2: goes first and he delays the outcome of hers, even 191 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 2: though we know that it couldn't, but it could possibly 192 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 2: show prejudice against somebody gearing up for him. He's an attorney, 193 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 2: so you know, they probably all talked about this. What 194 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 2: is going to be the best strategy. My question becomes 195 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 2: in Carlis, and I just want to make a note 196 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 2: that I think again the public and the raindrops need 197 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 2: to be made aware of when you sever into two 198 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 2: different trials, you have to understand that you can get 199 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 2: two different outcomes simply because you have two different juries. 200 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 2: So the juries are going to interpret the documents, the evidence, 201 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 2: the communications. 202 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 4: They could see them totally different. 203 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 2: If if you have the same or a different prosecutor, 204 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 2: they could present the evidence differently, the defense strategy could 205 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 2: be different between the two trials. So simply it doesn't 206 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 2: mean you're going to be prejudiced. 207 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 4: It is very well. 208 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 2: Likely impossible that you could get a different outcome with 209 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 2: the exact same evidence, because remember we got two different 210 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 2: juris right. 211 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 3: That's actually very smart. I'm glad you brought that up, 212 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 3: because the thing is this, everything is strategy. I mean, 213 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 3: I don't think that's like a secret when it comes 214 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 3: to anything dealing with trial. I think it's part of 215 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 3: the profession. Everything in life is strategy when it comes 216 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 3: to work, corporate America, no matter what you do for 217 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 3: a living. 218 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 2: So in a trial, and we can't lose sight of this. 219 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 2: I didn't mean to cut you off, but I just 220 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 2: think it's important. We always have to remember the biggest 221 00:15:57,960 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 2: thing about a criminal trial. 222 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 4: Is that this is not my position to prove my innocence. 223 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 2: It is the prosecutor's burden to prove my guilt beyond 224 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 2: a reasonable doubt. 225 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 4: So I could show up and do absolutely nothing. 226 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 2: The prosecutor has to do their job, which is different 227 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 2: than a corporate America job. 228 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 4: You know, it's more a give take put. 229 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 2: But in a criminal trial, the burden lies solely on 230 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 2: the prosecutor to to prove guilty. 231 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 3: Carlos, because the thing is this, but think is this, 232 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 3: and I would have laid out all on the table 233 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 3: for us to talk about. We have to go back 234 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 3: to the discovery of the emails, right, So the refresher memory, 235 00:16:54,360 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 3: Addie allegedly sent an email to his wife stating one 236 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:10,679 Speaker 3: of the claims that they were they will be able 237 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 3: to get X amount more dollars if they claim up 238 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 3: too X amount of dollars. There's there's allegedly an email 239 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 3: from Eddie to Wendy about that, which, presumably right shows 240 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 3: that he was the orchestrator of all of this. Right, 241 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 3: and that was something that I remember when we did 242 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 3: our live a few months ago, that stayed with all 243 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 3: of us, not meaning the three of us, meaning like 244 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 3: the audience, I'm the audience right now. Fast forward later, 245 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:48,880 Speaker 3: we're in March and they're being tried separately. We saw 246 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 3: a scene where they discussed the idea of what does 247 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 3: this mean for our marriage? There's a real possible case 248 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 3: in terms of Wendy saying I had no idea what 249 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 3: he was doing. This was all him, not me. I'm 250 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 3: and it's a bystander and that's that. 251 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 2: Can I say this and this? 252 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 4: Okay? 253 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 1: But from a legal standpoint, And again Tierney gave us 254 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 1: her disclaimer. 255 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 3: If is that I'm trying to ask a question, she 256 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 3: could answer. 257 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 2: That, she will answer right, my shady shady really quickly. 258 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,360 Speaker 4: I'm like, but if. 259 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 2: You're going to go off of I didn't know what 260 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 2: he was doing, did you know you still have the 261 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 2: ring on and photographs that you claimed was stolen. 262 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: Well, that's the thing, because the other thing with that, Corney, 263 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: is most people. 264 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,880 Speaker 3: Recreate their ring if they lost it. It was stumbling. 265 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: So but my question is this, based on the information 266 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: that it's in a discovery? 267 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 3: Is it plausible to defend that the white you know 268 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 3: about it? 269 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 4: You must be talking to Cordy. 270 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 3: Carny, I tried. 271 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 2: Not in this case. But let me ask another question, Carlo, 272 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:48,399 Speaker 2: is it a plausible defense for a spouse to claim 273 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 2: no knowledge of something in charges that are being uh 274 00:19:55,400 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 2: you know, charged against both of them. How actually, now 275 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 2: that they're not being tried together, where can spousal privilege 276 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 2: come into play? And then where can spousal ignorance come 277 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,439 Speaker 2: into play? Like can I just say, if I'm married 278 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:18,880 Speaker 2: and we're in hot water now our trials are separate, 279 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 2: and I'm saying, listen, I really did not know what 280 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 2: he was up to. 281 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 4: Clearly this was his plan. 282 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 2: There is I'm wondering, are there emails with her responding 283 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 2: there wasn't not discovery? 284 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 4: No? 285 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 3: OK. 286 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 2: So then I will say, anytime you have to the 287 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 2: cold defenders and they sever a trial, you know there's 288 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,920 Speaker 2: always the possibility. I'm sure you guys have seen lawn 289 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 2: Order where they have pointed the finger as the other person. 290 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. 291 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 2: Yes, that was a shameless plug for my friends. 292 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 4: But you know where you point in that that is. 293 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,919 Speaker 2: One of your legal strategies. You severed a trial so 294 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 2: that you can say I didn't do it, the. 295 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:09,880 Speaker 4: Other person did it. 296 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,160 Speaker 2: Which is why I keep repeating to you all, and 297 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 2: people hate when I repeat, Sorry, rain drops, but it's 298 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 2: the truth. The prosecution has to prove that each defendant 299 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 2: is saying what they're saying is true. They have to 300 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 2: prove that the defendant didn't know because in. 301 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 4: Any crime, you generally have to. 302 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 2: Have intent, and so the prosecution is going to have 303 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:46,679 Speaker 2: to prove intent as a part of that element. That 304 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 2: is a part of whether I knew or not, or 305 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 2: I didn't know or I participated. Simply, again, our simplest form, conspiracy, 306 00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 2: a crime was committed between two people. 307 00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:02,120 Speaker 4: You have to prove. 308 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 2: That the person knew that there was a crime going 309 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 2: on and they had the intent to break the law. Right. 310 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 2: So then to answer your question and say what she 311 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 2: can't say, Uh, Carlos, Absolutely, she is not speaking for me, Ryan, 312 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 2: I'm listen, I'm speaking as a fan of the show 313 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 2: and deciphering what she's talking about. Yeah, He's she's doing 314 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 2: this to say I didn't know anything about those emails. 315 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 2: I didn't even get the emails and what have you done? 316 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 2: And what's going to be the state of our marriage now? 317 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 1: Yeah? 318 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 3: And I think I think the other thing too, is 319 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:52,640 Speaker 3: this because we call this out months ago, and by 320 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 3: we meaning me and Courtney in the audience, that we 321 00:22:55,520 --> 00:23:00,080 Speaker 3: sort of knew this based on the discovery, base on 322 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:06,879 Speaker 3: on the responses from winning Eddie's legal team, that is 323 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 3: very plausible that he will take the fall for it. 324 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 3: And look, this is a legal question. I think it's 325 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 3: a question of morality of morals right in terms of 326 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 3: as the men of the house. 327 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,479 Speaker 2: Well, I also just want to caution you from saying 328 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 2: take the fall again. The prosecution of admitting guilt, Yeah, 329 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 2: that implies guilt. That that has to prove their case 330 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:42,120 Speaker 2: against both parties full stop. They have to prove their 331 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 2: guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. 332 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:46,919 Speaker 3: And that's hard to do. 333 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 4: And I would just say, like my. 334 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 2: Children with no ill intent again, and maybe I should 335 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 2: be like Carlos to not give anybody my past words. 336 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 2: But everybody has my password and my children have gone 337 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 2: into my phone. They sent text messages, they have sent 338 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 2: emails from my email. Again, they were not doing criminal behavior, 339 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:18,640 Speaker 2: I don't think. 340 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 4: Or anything that I would think. 341 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 2: But if it's possible that if something worth to come 342 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 2: back later, they have access to my devices. 343 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 4: They even though it look like I sent. 344 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 2: A message or an email, maybe I didn't. Because when 345 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 2: you're in an intimate space with loved ones, it gets 346 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:48,160 Speaker 2: even trickier. It's a lot of things to dissect anytime 347 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:53,880 Speaker 2: you're talking about criminal code conspirators who have intimate relationships. 348 00:24:54,520 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 3: Right, yeah, yeah, it's listen. We will see what happens. 349 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:05,399 Speaker 1: More to come with this, Courtney, you're a fan of 350 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: the show, You're a fan of the Osephos. 351 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 3: What are your final thoughts about this case? Do you 352 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 3: do you see a world to where, like Tyranny said, 353 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 3: do you think the prosecution can prove this case based 354 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 3: on what your knowledge is right now? And Courtney obviously 355 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,119 Speaker 3: studying law as well, is this something that based on 356 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:29,439 Speaker 3: your your current knowledge and you being a fan of 357 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 3: the show, do you think that the prosecution is going 358 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 3: to have a hard time proving that they're guilty upon 359 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 3: a reasonable doubt. 360 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 2: I think, honestly, I honestly think it was genius to separate. 361 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 2: I think Wendy will pray. Wendy's defense team will pray 362 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 2: on her celebrity. She's doing a remarkable job of making 363 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:04,159 Speaker 2: sure that people know how smart she is, how intelligent 364 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 2: their family is, and this wealth was earned and not fraudulent. 365 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 2: So having said that, I do believe one of them 366 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 2: will walk away from this unscathed, and likely will be her. 367 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 2: If I'm a betting woman and I'm a head of 368 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 2: to Vegas. My money is bet on her coming out 369 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 2: of this with a not guilty verdict him. There might 370 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 2: be something, but it might not be straight up fraud, 371 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 2: but it definitely because he's an attorney, I think there 372 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 2: will be some type of negligence because at some point 373 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 2: you know better, you know better simply because he was 374 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 2: an attorney. So and again, just in even my very 375 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 2: very very very incubated UH knowledge of the law, he 376 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 2: is a lawyer. He took certain oaths, He's very savvy 377 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 2: with this, so I think when they're when they're taking 378 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 2: ignorance will not be bliss for him, even though she's 379 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:21,199 Speaker 2: a professor ignorance. In this case, there is some negligence there, 380 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 2: no matter how you skin this cat. That's just my 381 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:32,399 Speaker 2: person so curious to watch. I think they both know, 382 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 2: But I also think Tarranny is absolutely correct. It's gonna 383 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 2: be there. This is going to be a tall order 384 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 2: for the prosecution uh to fulfill because they're going to 385 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 2: have probably top notch lawyers defending both of them. And 386 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 2: I will just remind the public and running drops the negligence. 387 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 4: Making mistakes. 388 00:27:58,160 --> 00:27:58,639 Speaker 3: M hmm. 389 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 4: It's not always criminal behavior. We all made mistakes. 390 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 2: We all have oversight, we all would all do things 391 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 2: that could be looked at as extremely stupid, but it 392 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:15,199 Speaker 2: does have to rise to the level of criminal behavior 393 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:21,120 Speaker 2: and it has to be proven. Right, So I think 394 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:26,400 Speaker 2: there were perfect in separating. I think she'll be okay, 395 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 2: and I think, you know, I'm not going to ever 396 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 2: predict a slap on the wrist for him, but I 397 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 2: think that something will happen. He will be held to 398 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 2: some accountability for it. But yeah, we're just gonna be watching. 399 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 2: And there is one scenario we did not talk about 400 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 2: in severing. 401 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 3: What's that. 402 00:28:54,040 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 2: Someone could be a cooperating witness. Both of us were like, oh, 403 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 2: you're absolutely right, and no, educate us. 404 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 3: This is a good education cony. By the way, Rady 405 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 3: jobs Courtney Parker is a law school in case I 406 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 3: didn't know that, like. 407 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 2: University of Law and Order. 408 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, no, Courtney. So in real life, guy, just 409 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 3: so you know, for the past is how recent is 410 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 3: a month or two? 411 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 2: It's been now almost thirty days. 412 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 3: Right, she's a law she's in law school, So educate us. Tyranny. 413 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: So there's a possibility of a cooperating witness between one 414 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 1: of them. 415 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 2: So anytime you have codefendants and you sever a trial. 416 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 2: It could simply be because you have a cooperating witness, 417 00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 2: someone who has decided that they are going to. 418 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 4: Testify for the state, and they possibly so you. 419 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 2: Don't want admit that together, so you're gonna separate it 420 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,719 Speaker 2: and then that I am not going down for you, 421 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 2: my dude, I am not just kidding. 422 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:20,959 Speaker 3: Again. 423 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 4: I am not speaking to this case at all. I 424 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 4: am just giving you. 425 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 2: Scenarios of when possibilities of trials actually being severed. 426 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 3: I'm like me, I'm just like my going. I was. 427 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 2: Going to withhold it because I don't like for people 428 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:56,959 Speaker 2: to jump to presumptions legal this, I mean, this is 429 00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 2: definitely a possibility when you are suffering trials. God bombshell 430 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 2: love it. 431 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: So I'll say this and you don't and obviously listen 432 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: judging gonna say another. 433 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 3: I want to say, childs, we know with that right, 434 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 3: with that legal knowledge that we just received, do you 435 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 3: see a. 436 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 1: World where Wendy would testify against Eddie? 437 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 4: Hmmm? 438 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 3: I think. 439 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 2: Yes, I do see a world. I do see a 440 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 2: world because you're also talking about a mom. We don't 441 00:31:56,080 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 2: know what conversations they've had. We don't know that even 442 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 2: in his you know, assumed or alleged guilt of making 443 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 2: a mistake that he didn't say, you know, save yourself 444 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 2: and the kids. We don't know the severity of anything 445 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 2: right now. So if it would be not necessarily a 446 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 2: slap in the face for a wife to say, you know, 447 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 2: I've got to do this because I honestly did not know, 448 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 2: I think it would be kind of, you know, integral 449 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 2: for the man to say, you've got to do this 450 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 2: to save our family because I made a mistake. So 451 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 2: I do feel because I don't want to assume an 452 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 2: emotion here. I don't want to assume the emotion of 453 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 2: him just not being anything if he did if there 454 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 2: is an alleged mistake that's been made, if there was 455 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 2: an alleged oversight on something, and now they're in sticky 456 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:11,239 Speaker 2: and hot water, I would respect him if he says, hey, uh, 457 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 2: you gotta do what you got to do for our family, 458 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 2: and I'll take this on because we're I don't want 459 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 2: to make the assumption that anything was done with ill intent, 460 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 2: and I don't want to make the assumption that they're 461 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 2: not in a good place of understanding. And I won't 462 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 2: just note that anytime you're talking about trials, whether it 463 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 2: is one trial or two trials, you're always going to 464 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 2: be moving according to the calendar and the docket, according. 465 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 4: To the court. 466 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 2: So the defendants are not going to be in charge 467 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 2: of that. They're going to be They can waive the 468 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 2: rights to a speedy trial or not, which means that 469 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 2: they're going to go on this trial calendar within six 470 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 2: months if they don't, but the judge is going to 471 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 2: manage the calendar in the schedule. I'm giving this procedural 472 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 2: information because it's always important to realize that you can 473 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 2: always have a settlement before trial, and and and settlement 474 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:23,600 Speaker 2: negotiations are generally not going to be public unless there's 475 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 2: a settlement. And those things happen every day all the 476 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 2: time up until the day of trial. So anything can 477 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 2: happen in the in between right now, and they're not 478 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,440 Speaker 2: being detained. 479 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:44,720 Speaker 1: Correct Carlos, They'll yeah, yeah, So a. 480 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 2: Lot can happen between now and their trial day they're not, which, 481 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 2: as I always say, should let the process work.

But I suffered emotional 545 00:39:54,520 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 3: distress because the photo that the world didn't see. They 546 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:03,719 Speaker 3: didn't see it because they didn't air it. They didn't 547 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:05,719 Speaker 3: air the photo, just so you all know, they pixelated it, 548 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 3: they blurred it, they blurred it, they blurned it what 549 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 3: I mean, listen, you can sue anybody, so we know that. 550 00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:14,359 Speaker 3: I think all of us are confused in terms of 551 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,319 Speaker 3: if you're saying that this photo that caused this brew 552 00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:23,840 Speaker 3: haha isn't you, then how. 553 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 1: Did it impact your livelihood because the world never saw 554 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:35,920 Speaker 1: the photo, and if it's not you, and the woman 555 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:40,439 Speaker 1: who did it got fired, you stayed on the show, 556 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:41,359 Speaker 1: you kept your job. 557 00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 3: I feel were all confused. While there is a lawsuit 558 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 3: to begin with, let me. 559 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:52,000 Speaker 2: Say something first before she educates us. It does speak 560 00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:59,400 Speaker 2: to though and Carlos. As producers and showrunners, we understand intent, 561 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:05,960 Speaker 2: and we understand storylines going in that were whether we 562 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:10,800 Speaker 2: get it wrong or not, we knew we know as 563 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 2: and I'm not saying I mean we allegedly know what 564 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:20,399 Speaker 2: storylines are gonna go before they are. Our cast typically 565 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:25,279 Speaker 2: does not surprise us. There are moments where cast can 566 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:29,279 Speaker 2: surprise us. But when you're show running, when you know 567 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,959 Speaker 2: we have these network calls, we're on these things day 568 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 2: in and day out. We know every intricate part of 569 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 2: our shows, so it's we're rarely surprised. So whether it 570 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 2: was wrong, the wrong image was printed, where does the 571 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:50,840 Speaker 2: intent to do this harm come in and I just 572 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 2: wanted to note that because I'm very I'm not confused 573 00:41:55,920 --> 00:42:01,400 Speaker 2: on what was printed, what was part of sty and 574 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 2: if I'm Brit she's saying and claiming, whether they got 575 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:10,000 Speaker 2: the photo wrong, y'all knew about this. You intended to 576 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 2: try to blow up the spot. You showed a pixelated 577 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:18,799 Speaker 2: version of this, and this became story. So now everybody's 578 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 2: looking online, searching the internet for the real photos of me. 579 00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:27,040 Speaker 2: I'm now having to defend myself as a cast member 580 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,959 Speaker 2: where I'm supposed to feel safe and somebody, if not all, 581 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 2: of y'all knew what was up. That was just my 582 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:39,680 Speaker 2: two cents. That was my two cents as a as 583 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 2: a you know, creator of reality TV, as a showrunner 584 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 2: of Reality TV, and as a responsible producer and executive 585 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:54,000 Speaker 2: producer of Reality TV. You know yourself, Carlos, how much 586 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:57,400 Speaker 2: stuff gets blamed and sat in your desk in your lap, 587 00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 2: whether you knew about it or not, whether you can 588 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:03,360 Speaker 2: manage it or not. So I think that's where Brit 589 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:05,240 Speaker 2: is possibly coming from. 590 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:07,440 Speaker 3: Doesn't matter if it was the wrong. 591 00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 2: One, the story remains the same tiernany I will just 592 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 2: say that legally, the issue comes with if the photo 593 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:26,440 Speaker 2: was false light or misrepresentation or misapproporation of someone's likeness, 594 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:33,359 Speaker 2: with defamation, with all of these claims, it's always going 595 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 2: to be similar things. It has to be false, so 596 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:41,840 Speaker 2: that that's one of the proms. It can't actually be true. 597 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 2: So it has to be false if it's a photo 598 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:48,960 Speaker 2: or not a photo of you. But that that's the 599 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:50,440 Speaker 2: first prom Okay. 600 00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:51,720 Speaker 4: So happened? 601 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 2: I explain that to us, it has to be the 602 00:43:54,600 --> 00:44:01,920 Speaker 2: wrong thing if she's saying it's not her. So again, 603 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:10,960 Speaker 2: I'm not talking about your case. I'm just saying yes, yes, yes, 604 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 2: says I'm saying the definite defamation, misappropriation of likeness, false light. 605 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:22,160 Speaker 2: You have got to show that it was Falseiness involved 606 00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:28,640 Speaker 2: when something the person being accused put out something that 607 00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 2: was false or said something that was not true. 608 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:37,279 Speaker 3: Got it, okay, okay, So. 609 00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:40,360 Speaker 4: It went out to the public and it caused harme. 610 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:47,880 Speaker 3: Got it?

Got it? 616 00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:19,719 Speaker 4: That is correct? 617 00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,680 Speaker 3: Got it? Okay, love what she says that?

That's good, that's good. 674 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 2: I think one of the things that we're missing in 675 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:28,719 Speaker 2: this is no, the person and in this case it's Kenya, 676 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:33,840 Speaker 2: it's not being sued by brick It is it possible? 677 00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:35,960 Speaker 2: And this question is kind of for you, Carlos, and 678 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,040 Speaker 2: we can be We can do the delicate dance of 679 00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:45,120 Speaker 2: conversation because we both have shows, we both show run 680 00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:49,880 Speaker 2: our shows. But where is the onus on the network? 681 00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:57,160 Speaker 2: Because the network ultimately has knowledge and approves certain storylines. 682 00:49:57,360 --> 00:50:03,760 Speaker 2: Is that why britt is charge them versus Keny Kenya? 683 00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:09,600 Speaker 2: Because that's always been her claim. She's always claimed, y'all 684 00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:13,399 Speaker 2: knew the producers knew that she was about to do this. 685 00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:17,800 Speaker 3: Not well, the thing is this what I rest the document? 686 00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:24,239 Speaker 3: Britt is more alleging that as we as we talk specifics, 687 00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 3: Britt is alleging that. 688 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:32,480 Speaker 2: Can I ask the factual question yes, because I'm not. 689 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,040 Speaker 2: I have no knowledge of any of this, and brain 690 00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:39,000 Speaker 2: Drops's intentional. I never want to know about the cases 691 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,480 Speaker 2: because I know you always are saying you all should 692 00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:43,719 Speaker 2: They are telling me you should read you should know. 693 00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:47,279 Speaker 2: That's not what I'm here for to comment. So I 694 00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:52,720 Speaker 2: specifically and intentionally do not ever read the documents because 695 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:57,080 Speaker 2: I'm not commenting on that, but factually, I just am 696 00:50:57,239 --> 00:51:06,680 Speaker 2: curious about this show. Did the show actually air epixelated image? 697 00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:10,560 Speaker 3: The blurred image where you could not identify who it was? 698 00:51:11,719 --> 00:51:16,600 Speaker 2: And so the show aired something that I could believe 699 00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:24,120 Speaker 2: your presume and there there was almost a gotcha moment 700 00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 2: in the storyline. 701 00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:29,080 Speaker 4: And they all have another question. 702 00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:32,440 Speaker 2: And this is for my producer's showrunners, just because I 703 00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:38,359 Speaker 2: don't understand how things are. These shoves are not live right, 704 00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:44,240 Speaker 2: they're editing correct, and so when you edit. 705 00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:47,279 Speaker 4: Where you're going, you can control. 706 00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:52,200 Speaker 3: You can't control whether or not you want to show 707 00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:53,000 Speaker 3: that yes. 708 00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:55,960 Speaker 2: Okay, and go down that rabbit hole. Yes, So that 709 00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:59,400 Speaker 2: that is a producer's showrunners. 710 00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,759 Speaker 3: Job, right. The network is it's a. 711 00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:06,920 Speaker 2: It's bigger than just the. 712 00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 4: Let's call it a global show like the show. The 713 00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 4: show decides what people see or what the public. 714 00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:15,240 Speaker 3: Stats on television correct. 715 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:21,000 Speaker 2: Okay, And and none of the what do you call 716 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:27,720 Speaker 2: them prova levities, none of the proba levities actually control 717 00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:32,480 Speaker 2: any of them, now, okay, I understand them. Yeah, So, 718 00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:39,160 Speaker 2: in producers and showrunners defense, our biggest contender is always 719 00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:42,919 Speaker 2: going to be the network. The network always has final say. 720 00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:48,920 Speaker 2: So when people wanting to do reality TV understand that 721 00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 2: once they purchased the show, you can have a lot 722 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:57,880 Speaker 2: of influence, but it is there inevitably, it is their show. 723 00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:07,040 Speaker 2: You're running a show, and if you have wonderful creators 724 00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:11,839 Speaker 2: and partners like the Carlos King, then nine times out 725 00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:15,240 Speaker 2: of ten, things like this won't get out of hand 726 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:20,160 Speaker 2: because you have somebody really, really really sincerely advocating and 727 00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:22,000 Speaker 2: fighting for talent. 728 00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:25,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, and to answer your question. 729 00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:27,560 Speaker 4: I also have legal departments. 730 00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:29,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I was gonna say that the thing is 731 00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:31,400 Speaker 3: this and this will always tell people because you know, 732 00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:35,760 Speaker 3: I cant blame for everything, child, because I'm the face 733 00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:38,799 Speaker 3: of the production. Just like just like when you are 734 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:42,080 Speaker 3: the hit of the household and something goes awry in 735 00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:44,279 Speaker 3: your home, your neighbors are going to blame the hit 736 00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:45,040 Speaker 3: of the household. 737 00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:47,600 Speaker 1: Right, it is what it is. But look at it 738 00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:55,480 Speaker 1: that way, however legally right, right, it's not us. We 739 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:01,840 Speaker 1: there's so many people above me, and the words of 740 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:03,440 Speaker 1: the cool kids is above me. 741 00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:06,160 Speaker 3: Now it's above my pay grade. 742 00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:08,280 Speaker 4: That's one of my favorite quotes. 743 00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:11,560 Speaker 3: Yes, it's above me. Now it's above my pay grade. 744 00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:14,640 Speaker 3: That is the case for all producers. I am not 745 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:17,560 Speaker 3: a network, but never has final says every corney said, 746 00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:23,200 Speaker 3: they say yang or day, and you can have suggestions, 747 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:27,239 Speaker 3: but ultimately they're the one holding the purse strings. And 748 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:31,640 Speaker 3: like you said to Karny, they also have an entire 749 00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:35,000 Speaker 3: legal department that looks at things. And the reason why 750 00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:38,520 Speaker 3: this is such an interesting case to me is because 751 00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:43,600 Speaker 3: on the show, Britt was never just so you know, 752 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:47,560 Speaker 3: Britt never saw the photo because she left the event 753 00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:52,640 Speaker 3: before it was displayed. So when Kenya displayed the event 754 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:57,960 Speaker 3: from the housewives and this let's say fifty people, all 755 00:54:58,000 --> 00:54:58,440 Speaker 3: of this. 756 00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:02,600 Speaker 2: Is on a television show this is airing, so fifty 757 00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:10,120 Speaker 2: people present, but the world one two point seven million people. 758 00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 3: Watched, just as diffic Courtney. So I want I want 759 00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:15,200 Speaker 3: to make sure that tell Terrany was different in real time. 760 00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:25,040 Speaker 3: At Kenya salon, the housewives and fifty people saw an 761 00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:29,560 Speaker 3: unedited photo of a woman performing filatio. 762 00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 2: Okay, her reaction was prog yes, and Kenya. 763 00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:44,240 Speaker 3: Said this was Britt Edie. Grig Edie left the room 764 00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:49,600 Speaker 3: five minutes before Kenya showed the photo, so when the 765 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:54,680 Speaker 3: photo was shown, the other housewife left. Photo was disgusting. 766 00:55:54,719 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 3: Blah blah blah blah. The ladies told Britt, she showed 767 00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:06,320 Speaker 3: a photo of you performing filatio. Right, So Britt ran 768 00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:10,160 Speaker 3: with that narrative She never because so she wasn't feared 769 00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:13,319 Speaker 3: to see it. She ran with the narrative of it 770 00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:20,200 Speaker 3: now based on what she said on the show. She said, 771 00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:24,479 Speaker 3: when that happened, I was young, So although she didn't 772 00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:29,080 Speaker 3: see it, she she did say, there is a photo 773 00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:32,239 Speaker 3: of me doing that, but I was young, and and 774 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:34,080 Speaker 3: you know, she gave all the reasons why it was 775 00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:36,680 Speaker 3: out there. How embarrassed she was in all the and 776 00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:47,200 Speaker 3: and all the things. She continued filming Kenya got suspended. Oh, 777 00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:51,560 Speaker 3: immediately they cease, They cease philming Kenya. 778 00:56:52,040 --> 00:56:53,560 Speaker 4: But they still aired it. 779 00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:58,280 Speaker 3: They so the fifty people saw being an edited photo. 780 00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:01,840 Speaker 1: What they aired it was a blurred you couldn't you 781 00:57:01,840 --> 00:57:03,080 Speaker 1: couldn't see it. 782 00:57:03,239 --> 00:57:09,920 Speaker 2: Why now, I mean they aired the incident correct, Yeah, 783 00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:13,600 Speaker 2: and it kept going like they not only aired the 784 00:57:13,719 --> 00:57:19,280 Speaker 2: incident when Kenya got suspended, it kept that particular storyline 785 00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:25,600 Speaker 2: alive because when you go back to why Kenya was suspended, 786 00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:29,040 Speaker 2: all roads lead back to So if I'm picking it 787 00:57:29,160 --> 00:57:33,080 Speaker 2: up at episode ten and I'm like, well, Kenya's not 788 00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:36,160 Speaker 2: here and people are talking about that in real time, 789 00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:40,840 Speaker 2: then I'm going to go back to episode six and see, well, 790 00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:43,760 Speaker 2: why what led up to it? Because now we control 791 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:50,040 Speaker 2: how we watched television. All of these things are on demand. 792 00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:54,800 Speaker 2: So again it's you know, it's just it was. 793 00:57:55,120 --> 00:57:59,280 Speaker 4: I'm just gonna say that in any time. 794 00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:05,360 Speaker 2: You see a hostile workplace alleged, it's not just that 795 00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:13,960 Speaker 2: it happened one time, it's when it's allowed to continue. 796 00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:19,920 Speaker 2: What did the employer do to stop the hostile workplace 797 00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:21,520 Speaker 2: or the impression of such? 798 00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:26,920 Speaker 1: And because they thought they suspended her proper word, the 799 00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:31,840 Speaker 1: moment that hasn't happened in real time. She did not 800 00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:37,480 Speaker 1: film since they suspended Kenya and brit was allowed to 801 00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:42,360 Speaker 1: continue filming Kenya was suspended, right and. 802 00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:46,600 Speaker 2: Which which it seems like this is layered with a 803 00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:50,320 Speaker 2: lot more issues than just a contractual dispute. 804 00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:51,280 Speaker 3: Yes, with. 805 00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:57,000 Speaker 2: Probably land to why the case has moved now to 806 00:58:57,200 --> 00:58:59,960 Speaker 2: federal court because now it looks like there may be 807 00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:03,360 Speaker 2: these some federal loss because when you're talking about airing 808 00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:07,960 Speaker 2: things that such as this on television, now we're talking 809 00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:11,560 Speaker 2: about federal laws. Then you're talking about civil rights protections, 810 00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:16,120 Speaker 2: and you know, there we possibly could be talking about 811 00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:20,200 Speaker 2: things that happen across state lines in filming. Not sure 812 00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:23,040 Speaker 2: if they filmed only in Atlanta or in different places. 813 00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:26,840 Speaker 4: So there's so many variables where this is. 814 00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:30,640 Speaker 2: It may explain why the case is now more appropriate 815 00:59:31,080 --> 00:59:32,120 Speaker 2: for federal court. 816 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:38,720 Speaker 1: And I wanted to ask you that because she refiled 817 00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:40,720 Speaker 1: at the federal level. 818 00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:46,200 Speaker 3: And now is it and and and according to the 819 00:59:46,320 --> 00:59:52,800 Speaker 3: new federal complaint tyranny, she's not seeking a specific dollar 820 00:59:52,880 --> 01:00:01,160 Speaker 3: amount right. Instead, she is requesting compository damages, punitive damages, 821 01:00:01,440 --> 01:00:08,160 Speaker 3: attorney fees, an additional relief deem appropriate by the court. 822 01:00:07,800 --> 01:00:11,680 Speaker 2: And she wants this to be a jury trial, right, 823 01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:23,920 Speaker 2: I will just say while he's checking that actual damages 824 01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:27,280 Speaker 2: you have to prove so I lost this amount of money, 825 01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:32,280 Speaker 2: I lost this amount of contracts, it impeded my ability 826 01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:35,400 Speaker 2: to work here or there or where you have to 827 01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:43,800 Speaker 2: actually calculate your actual damages. Pinative damages is where you 828 01:00:43,920 --> 01:00:50,440 Speaker 2: can say a jury can say this behavior is so reprehensible, 829 01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:53,920 Speaker 2: we're gonna put a number on here where you never 830 01:00:54,080 --> 01:00:58,960 Speaker 2: do this again. And when we're talking about corporations or 831 01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:03,360 Speaker 2: big businesses, the numbers tend to increase because when you 832 01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:08,280 Speaker 2: say five or ten million dollars to a regular civilian, 833 01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:12,160 Speaker 2: that is a lot of money that would bankrupt our 834 01:01:12,320 --> 01:01:16,840 Speaker 2: entire family. But when you're talking about large corporations, five 835 01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:18,920 Speaker 2: or ten million dollars may not put a dent in 836 01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:23,320 Speaker 2: their operation. So that's why punitive damages are allowed, because 837 01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:26,520 Speaker 2: that's when you hear these huge verdicts like one hundred 838 01:01:26,560 --> 01:01:29,880 Speaker 2: million dollars or you know, in Florida there was a 839 01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:34,160 Speaker 2: billion dollar verdict against Big Tobacco that was later appealed. 840 01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:36,600 Speaker 2: But I'm just saying these are the kind of verdicts 841 01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:39,080 Speaker 2: that they want. 842 01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:41,600 Speaker 4: To send them. The jury is saying, this is so egregious. 843 01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:45,120 Speaker 2: I want to send a message to the corporations and 844 01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:50,360 Speaker 2: two other corporations, do not do this again, a Chinese 845 01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:54,640 Speaker 2: fees are going to be actually what you spent. So again, 846 01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:57,640 Speaker 2: that may be a part of the reason why the 847 01:01:57,720 --> 01:02:03,360 Speaker 2: language has changed, because now the jury is going to 848 01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:06,640 Speaker 2: get to decide what the number is for punitive damages, 849 01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:13,160 Speaker 2: but the planet still has to actually show actual damages 850 01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:15,720 Speaker 2: and calculate the attorney's. 851 01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:20,080 Speaker 1: Fees and the actual damages is losing money because of 852 01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:24,520 Speaker 1: this scandal, losing jobs, losing income because of the scandal. 853 01:02:24,600 --> 01:02:27,440 Speaker 2: You can base it off of her contract, her existing 854 01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:28,840 Speaker 2: contract with them. 855 01:02:29,920 --> 01:02:32,040 Speaker 3: Well, she continued fail me. She got paid for all 856 01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:34,640 Speaker 3: the episodes she was in, but she could. 857 01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:38,280 Speaker 2: She could have pegged herself as the next Nini Leeks 858 01:02:38,560 --> 01:02:44,479 Speaker 2: or Bethany Frankel of the franchise. But they didn't fire her. 859 01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:45,360 Speaker 3: No, she quit. 860 01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:48,000 Speaker 2: She quit, But that's what I'm saying. But she's kind 861 01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:51,120 Speaker 2: of forced to quit because it was a hostile working environment. 862 01:02:51,760 --> 01:02:54,320 Speaker 3: I was just saying. I was just talking as strictly 863 01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:57,160 Speaker 3: based on the punitive damages, because if I can prove 864 01:02:57,240 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 3: to you, I lost money. How was that even possible 865 01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:02,440 Speaker 3: in terms of the networks? 866 01:03:02,560 --> 01:03:07,840 Speaker 1: Right when, like Tyranny said, which is again, now we 867 01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:11,440 Speaker 1: kind of can understand the legal conversation that was happening. 868 01:03:11,120 --> 01:03:12,160 Speaker 3: Behind closed doors. 869 01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:16,280 Speaker 1: You have to get rid of Kenya, right like you 870 01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:19,520 Speaker 1: just have to right if you This is me saying it. 871 01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:23,680 Speaker 3: Based on the facts of the situation. Now I understand 872 01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:28,160 Speaker 3: why they had to suspend Kenya because if she continued filming. 873 01:03:28,720 --> 01:03:34,160 Speaker 1: It would have made My legal opinion is britt would 874 01:03:34,160 --> 01:03:36,560 Speaker 1: have had a much better case for housile work environment 875 01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:39,240 Speaker 1: based on this woman who showed a photo. 876 01:03:39,960 --> 01:03:42,560 Speaker 3: But now she has to prove how that is effective 877 01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:45,040 Speaker 3: bottle line, So we'll see what she says with that. 878 01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:51,080 Speaker 3: They did not fire her, They continue filming with her. 879 01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:56,080 Speaker 3: She decided to quit the show a few days before 880 01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:59,120 Speaker 3: taping the reunion. So the other thing I just want, 881 01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:03,439 Speaker 3: I want to paint the picture for Tyranny is that 882 01:04:03,800 --> 01:04:08,000 Speaker 3: particular moment of the photo being shown to that moment 883 01:04:08,040 --> 01:04:10,000 Speaker 3: being shown, excuse me, the photo because it was blurred 884 01:04:10,640 --> 01:04:14,920 Speaker 3: was maybe episode five or six, six, I think six. 885 01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:21,520 Speaker 3: I think there were twelve more episodes after that, and 886 01:04:21,600 --> 01:04:25,160 Speaker 3: it wasn't until they were ready to take the reunion 887 01:04:25,200 --> 01:04:28,240 Speaker 3: that she said it wasn't me. And that's why a 888 01:04:28,240 --> 01:04:30,640 Speaker 3: lot of people were confused because. 889 01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:36,400 Speaker 1: They were, like, you let these episodes air, you went 890 01:04:36,440 --> 01:04:40,479 Speaker 1: on watch What Happens Live after that moment you told 891 01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:44,360 Speaker 1: Andy Cohen how you felt. That's why a lot of 892 01:04:44,360 --> 01:04:46,160 Speaker 1: people are surprised. I just wanted to paint the picture 893 01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:46,760 Speaker 1: for tyranny. 894 01:04:46,880 --> 01:04:49,680 Speaker 2: Which is why we have to allow for them to 895 01:04:49,720 --> 01:04:53,960 Speaker 2: get to the discovery in order to review the evidence 896 01:04:54,440 --> 01:04:58,680 Speaker 2: in court, because there is a lot of presumptions once 897 01:04:58,760 --> 01:05:03,760 Speaker 2: again that may or may not be true. The court 898 01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:06,760 Speaker 2: is going which is and let me just say this 899 01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:11,560 Speaker 2: for the range drops and for you all, less than 900 01:05:11,600 --> 01:05:15,120 Speaker 2: two percent of federal civil. 901 01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:16,720 Speaker 4: Cases make it to trial. 902 01:05:20,200 --> 01:05:24,280 Speaker 2: Less than two percent of federal civil cases make it 903 01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:30,880 Speaker 2: to trial. Before that happens, they can settle, it could 904 01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:36,960 Speaker 2: be dismissed due to motions, because now that its in 905 01:05:37,040 --> 01:05:41,000 Speaker 2: federal court, it has to go through different motions and 906 01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:46,400 Speaker 2: it has to survive. Of course, the defendants are going 907 01:05:46,440 --> 01:05:48,760 Speaker 2: to put forth a case of why this. 908 01:05:48,760 --> 01:05:49,800 Speaker 4: Should be dismissed. 909 01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:54,880 Speaker 2: But once or if it survives, then you get to discovery. 910 01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:58,040 Speaker 2: The discovery is where you're going to see all of 911 01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:03,120 Speaker 2: the internal communications, all of the documents, everything's going to 912 01:06:03,160 --> 01:06:07,160 Speaker 2: be timestamped. You're going to really get a timeline of 913 01:06:07,160 --> 01:06:11,560 Speaker 2: what happened, when it happened, how it happened, and that 914 01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:14,960 Speaker 2: could lead to a settlement, It could lead to a dismissal, 915 01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:19,280 Speaker 2: or it could lead to some kind of pretrial negotiations 916 01:06:20,240 --> 01:06:26,560 Speaker 2: with motions before. So again, this is why I always say, 917 01:06:27,040 --> 01:06:32,440 Speaker 2: let's not jump to any presumptions. But lawyers do not 918 01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:41,840 Speaker 2: file lawsuits in federal court generally without having some evidence. 919 01:06:44,120 --> 01:06:46,320 Speaker 3: Can you so before we wrap up, I do want 920 01:06:46,360 --> 01:06:49,800 Speaker 3: to Can I break down what she's alleging and can 921 01:06:49,840 --> 01:06:54,680 Speaker 3: you explain to us what that means? Yes, I think 922 01:06:54,680 --> 01:06:57,680 Speaker 3: we all understand such a harassment a house of work environment. 923 01:06:57,760 --> 01:07:03,040 Speaker 1: So I think rain DAWs, we know that gender motivated violence. 924 01:07:07,680 --> 01:07:09,360 Speaker 1: What does what does that mean? 925 01:07:11,640 --> 01:07:16,480 Speaker 2: It means that based on her gender, there was violence 926 01:07:17,320 --> 01:07:22,120 Speaker 2: perpetrated towards her as a woman, as a woman. 927 01:07:22,880 --> 01:07:25,720 Speaker 4: Meaning that this is not the type of. 928 01:07:29,280 --> 01:07:33,080 Speaker 2: I guess generally, this is not the type of conduct 929 01:07:33,880 --> 01:07:35,880 Speaker 2: or an issue a man would have to deal with. 930 01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:43,600 Speaker 3: Oh Okay, okay ati splits a photo of performed Okay Georgia. 931 01:07:44,280 --> 01:07:49,040 Speaker 3: Non Consensual Intimate image law violations. 932 01:07:49,400 --> 01:07:53,360 Speaker 4: M hm, say that again. This isn't This is in 933 01:07:53,480 --> 01:07:55,280 Speaker 4: federal court. Now, did you say Georgia. 934 01:07:55,640 --> 01:08:00,880 Speaker 3: It says Georgia here not it says g Orgia non 935 01:08:01,040 --> 01:08:07,440 Speaker 3: consensual intimate image law violations, which I'm assuming image means 936 01:08:07,480 --> 01:08:09,040 Speaker 3: the photo, the photo. 937 01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:13,200 Speaker 2: She didn't get consent, You didn't give consent to basically 938 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:18,799 Speaker 2: show a what do we call it, undressed photo? 939 01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:20,400 Speaker 3: Got it? Okay? 940 01:08:21,400 --> 01:08:24,760 Speaker 1: I think we all know what intentional infliction of emotional 941 01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:29,760 Speaker 1: distress means. I think we know that negligence, in this 942 01:08:29,840 --> 01:08:31,120 Speaker 1: particular negligence. 943 01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:37,439 Speaker 2: The negligence could be a variety of things, but it 944 01:08:37,479 --> 01:08:41,000 Speaker 2: could be of the handling of the situation, the handling 945 01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:48,320 Speaker 2: of the images, the post handling of the situation. Because 946 01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:52,000 Speaker 2: you gotta understand that there is more than one way 947 01:08:52,840 --> 01:08:55,800 Speaker 2: to stop work place harassment. 948 01:08:56,479 --> 01:08:59,160 Speaker 4: It doesn't mean, oh, if I just do one thing, 949 01:09:01,080 --> 01:09:02,439 Speaker 4: then I'm off the hook. 950 01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:11,439 Speaker 2: So if I get rid of a bad actor, but 951 01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:17,560 Speaker 2: I still perpetuate an environment that makes bad actors comfortable, 952 01:09:19,840 --> 01:09:26,599 Speaker 2: the workplace harassment could be continuing. Right, you got one 953 01:09:26,600 --> 01:09:33,360 Speaker 2: of the things that I also read very very early on. Okay, okay, 954 01:09:33,479 --> 01:09:34,120 Speaker 2: go go go go. 955 01:09:34,840 --> 01:09:42,240 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, no, no, I think we all know contract 956 01:09:42,360 --> 01:09:45,080 Speaker 3: related claims. We don't have our contracts, so we can't 957 01:09:45,080 --> 01:09:46,720 Speaker 3: speak to that, okay, but. 958 01:09:47,600 --> 01:09:53,760 Speaker 2: I will like to say this about contracts. The contract 959 01:09:53,960 --> 01:09:58,840 Speaker 2: is going to matter. So because you negotiate a bad 960 01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:02,960 Speaker 2: contract isn't just gonna let you off the hook. You 961 01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:06,759 Speaker 2: don't get to say now I got a bad contract, 962 01:10:06,760 --> 01:10:09,519 Speaker 2: now I'm mad, and now I'm gonna sue you. You're 963 01:10:09,520 --> 01:10:13,720 Speaker 2: gonna need something more than you negotiate a bad contract. 964 01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:18,160 Speaker 2: You're going to have to show some conduct that actually 965 01:10:18,360 --> 01:10:23,080 Speaker 2: violates a protected class or protected activity. 966 01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:26,600 Speaker 4: It's not just simple like, hey, I work in a 967 01:10:26,640 --> 01:10:30,280 Speaker 4: bad environment. Like there are a lot of bad environments 968 01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:33,520 Speaker 4: where we work in that may not rise. 969 01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:37,240 Speaker 2: To the level of actually violating a protected class or 970 01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:38,440 Speaker 2: protected behavior. 971 01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:42,280 Speaker 4: And this is back to the rain drops. Y'all know. 972 01:10:42,320 --> 01:10:47,000 Speaker 2: I'm contract driven, always, always, and I understand that sometimes 973 01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:49,720 Speaker 2: people are gonna say that the networks and the producers 974 01:10:49,800 --> 01:10:54,599 Speaker 2: have all the power. But a contract can be at 975 01:10:54,600 --> 01:10:59,120 Speaker 2: the very least red. And I don't mean that you 976 01:10:59,360 --> 01:11:02,760 Speaker 2: per se has to read it. This is where it's really. 977 01:11:02,520 --> 01:11:06,519 Speaker 4: Important for you to get legal counsel. No one should 978 01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:07,720 Speaker 4: sign any. 979 01:11:07,560 --> 01:11:12,160 Speaker 2: Contract without legal consultation because you need someone reading the 980 01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:13,600 Speaker 2: fine print. 981 01:11:14,479 --> 01:11:16,440 Speaker 4: We don't know what's in this contract. 982 01:11:16,640 --> 01:11:21,280 Speaker 2: This contract may have said something that deals with this 983 01:11:21,400 --> 01:11:25,400 Speaker 2: kind of behavior that gives the network and out because 984 01:11:25,439 --> 01:11:28,240 Speaker 2: the network, like I said, has a huge legal team. 985 01:11:30,080 --> 01:11:35,559 Speaker 2: All networks have huge legal teams. So again, contracts can 986 01:11:35,640 --> 01:11:39,120 Speaker 2: be negotiated. And just because they have the power, that 987 01:11:39,200 --> 01:11:43,680 Speaker 2: does not mean that they are not willing to actually 988 01:11:43,760 --> 01:11:48,280 Speaker 2: make some amendments because there are certain things, like Courtney 989 01:11:48,320 --> 01:11:51,479 Speaker 2: said that networks are always going to have the final 990 01:11:51,600 --> 01:11:53,080 Speaker 2: say because they've. 991 01:11:52,880 --> 01:11:58,200 Speaker 4: Put resources into things in like that. But there's small tweaks. 992 01:11:58,520 --> 01:12:01,800 Speaker 4: I mean, I look at a contract lawyer before I became. 993 01:12:01,439 --> 01:12:05,200 Speaker 2: A judge, where you can make you can change a 994 01:12:05,240 --> 01:12:09,400 Speaker 2: word or two and it changes. You can change a 995 01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:15,800 Speaker 2: word from shall to make and it changes the whole understanding. 996 01:12:15,960 --> 01:12:18,720 Speaker 4: And those little tweaks are things that. 997 01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:21,960 Speaker 2: People when they're dealing with contracts should really kind of 998 01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:25,000 Speaker 2: focus in on. But at the very least, the contract 999 01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:27,559 Speaker 2: has to be read and you should get a lawyer 1000 01:12:27,640 --> 01:12:32,320 Speaker 2: to consult it, to give you legal consultation before signing it, 1001 01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:35,040 Speaker 2: because a lot of people are just so excited to 1002 01:12:35,040 --> 01:12:37,360 Speaker 2: be on reality TV and they probably just signed away 1003 01:12:37,960 --> 01:12:40,559 Speaker 2: kind of skim over it. Don't really read it. People 1004 01:12:40,600 --> 01:12:43,560 Speaker 2: tell them, oh, it's standard, this is a standard contract. 1005 01:12:43,560 --> 01:12:44,719 Speaker 2: It's standard jargon. 1006 01:12:46,080 --> 01:12:47,479 Speaker 4: No, you need a lawyer. 1007 01:12:50,280 --> 01:12:53,880 Speaker 3: And last one, the carious liability. 1008 01:12:55,640 --> 01:12:59,000 Speaker 2: Bycarious liability, what does that break that down for us? 1009 01:13:00,080 --> 01:13:01,760 Speaker 4: That I guess. 1010 01:13:04,200 --> 01:13:09,519 Speaker 2: You are going to be liable through the actions of 1011 01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:16,479 Speaker 2: someone else due to your positioning. So when people say 1012 01:13:16,600 --> 01:13:21,639 Speaker 2: I'm living vicariously through you, she's saying she's alluding I'm 1013 01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:26,480 Speaker 2: suing you vicariously by what you allowed your other talented. 1014 01:13:26,120 --> 01:13:29,599 Speaker 1: To Kenya in this case, right through Kenya, because she's 1015 01:13:29,680 --> 01:13:32,040 Speaker 1: not suing Kenya so. 1016 01:13:33,680 --> 01:13:36,040 Speaker 3: Well, because I really do Yeah. 1017 01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:40,280 Speaker 2: I believe that she's feeling the onus is on the 1018 01:13:40,320 --> 01:13:44,559 Speaker 2: network because ultimately they knew. One of the things I 1019 01:13:44,640 --> 01:13:47,880 Speaker 2: read and I could have gotten this wrong. So let 1020 01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:50,519 Speaker 2: me know if you read this too. She was saying 1021 01:13:50,600 --> 01:13:56,120 Speaker 2: that the props went to like Staples or something like 1022 01:13:56,160 --> 01:14:01,960 Speaker 2: they had this poster made her a photo that was 1023 01:14:02,800 --> 01:14:06,080 Speaker 2: that was made and on display like. 1024 01:14:06,160 --> 01:14:08,320 Speaker 4: A PA went to get it. 1025 01:14:08,320 --> 01:14:11,360 Speaker 2: It was picked up. So there's a lot of you know, 1026 01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:19,919 Speaker 2: coercion and planning that went into this scene that was filmed. 1027 01:14:19,960 --> 01:14:23,720 Speaker 2: Did you hear anything about about that Carlos, you have 1028 01:14:23,760 --> 01:14:25,160 Speaker 2: a sinister look on your face. 1029 01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:29,240 Speaker 3: Noat Okay, repeat the last part. 1030 01:14:31,200 --> 01:14:33,120 Speaker 2: What I think a lot of people want to know 1031 01:14:34,120 --> 01:14:38,559 Speaker 2: when this came up for me because I was asked 1032 01:14:38,560 --> 01:14:42,600 Speaker 2: about this as one who show run shows before, Like 1033 01:14:42,640 --> 01:14:49,920 Speaker 2: I'm always asked, what part does producers executive producers, what 1034 01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:53,240 Speaker 2: part do we play? Because we know when we're filming 1035 01:14:53,240 --> 01:14:56,519 Speaker 2: a scene. When we're filming these scenes, we pretty much 1036 01:14:56,560 --> 01:15:02,799 Speaker 2: have a basis of what's about to happen. Oh case, the. 1037 01:15:04,439 --> 01:15:11,160 Speaker 3: In this case, production had no idea. They had no idea. Okay, 1038 01:15:11,520 --> 01:15:17,360 Speaker 3: so when she when Kenya showed the poster board, everybody 1039 01:15:19,160 --> 01:15:22,760 Speaker 3: meaning the production shot shot. They had no idea she 1040 01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:25,879 Speaker 3: was doing this. They had no clue. 1041 01:15:26,439 --> 01:15:29,320 Speaker 1: Now to your point earlier in terms of staples and 1042 01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:31,080 Speaker 1: all of those things. 1043 01:15:31,520 --> 01:15:36,080 Speaker 3: You know, there was a poster board saying who is 1044 01:15:36,120 --> 01:15:41,439 Speaker 3: this hole? And there were several photo images of her 1045 01:15:41,920 --> 01:15:47,800 Speaker 3: in yeah and not not not nothing sexual, just like 1046 01:15:48,200 --> 01:15:50,000 Speaker 3: you know she called her insurance for on the hole 1047 01:15:50,040 --> 01:15:53,160 Speaker 3: and all these other things. So the poster board had 1048 01:15:53,160 --> 01:15:58,400 Speaker 3: these images and then one poster board is when it 1049 01:15:58,640 --> 01:16:05,839 Speaker 3: was the explicit phone on that one. So, yeah, somebody listen, 1050 01:16:08,360 --> 01:16:11,680 Speaker 3: unless Kenya has a jet brinner at the crib, Like 1051 01:16:11,720 --> 01:16:16,040 Speaker 3: you said, somebody has to print it, do all the things. 1052 01:16:16,080 --> 01:16:19,919 Speaker 1: So yeah, but I wanted to make sure that production 1053 01:16:20,040 --> 01:16:25,360 Speaker 1: had no idea she was doing this zero and production 1054 01:16:25,439 --> 01:16:27,760 Speaker 1: it and and. 1055 01:16:27,320 --> 01:16:30,720 Speaker 3: Was not happy. I was not happy. I was not 1056 01:16:30,800 --> 01:16:35,960 Speaker 3: happy with it, and was just like why and and 1057 01:16:35,960 --> 01:16:40,559 Speaker 3: and in Kingya's defense, she has cent on record that 1058 01:16:41,360 --> 01:16:43,960 Speaker 3: she did this on her own, on her own. 1059 01:16:46,160 --> 01:16:50,240 Speaker 2: So so then the bigger, the bigger question becomes why 1060 01:16:50,280 --> 01:16:54,160 Speaker 2: the network chose to steal air it? Because we shoot 1061 01:16:54,200 --> 01:16:58,800 Speaker 2: lots of scenes all the time that never make air 1062 01:16:59,640 --> 01:17:03,479 Speaker 2: and live on the cutting room floor. Where does the 1063 01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:11,560 Speaker 2: onus and responsibility of the conglomerate lie? 1064 01:17:11,880 --> 01:17:14,160 Speaker 3: Well, again, I think that's something that we're about to 1065 01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:17,160 Speaker 3: find out is based on the going because again I don't, 1066 01:17:17,160 --> 01:17:20,320 Speaker 3: I don't have the answer to it. Yeah, I think 1067 01:17:20,400 --> 01:17:21,559 Speaker 3: I think that's what we. 1068 01:17:21,439 --> 01:17:28,400 Speaker 2: Call it discovery, discovery, right, yeah, yeah, And we also 1069 01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:33,360 Speaker 2: call it integrity. And Carlos is a creator and executive 1070 01:17:33,360 --> 01:17:38,639 Speaker 2: producer of integrity. I strive to be one because when 1071 01:17:38,800 --> 01:17:42,600 Speaker 2: when anything fails and anyone walks away from an experience 1072 01:17:42,680 --> 01:17:45,120 Speaker 2: that was supposed to be good, you know, we are 1073 01:17:45,200 --> 01:17:49,120 Speaker 2: not just here to spill tea and destroy lives. Like 1074 01:17:49,240 --> 01:17:55,080 Speaker 2: we're also as producers impacted and whatever we can, whatever 1075 01:17:55,120 --> 01:18:01,920 Speaker 2: we can control, we typically do try to operate in integrity. 1076 01:18:02,560 --> 01:18:02,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1077 01:18:02,880 --> 01:18:06,920 Speaker 2: Well, once they get through the motions phase, if it survives, 1078 01:18:07,120 --> 01:18:12,160 Speaker 2: Discovery is where the money is, right, you know, Discovery 1079 01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:16,920 Speaker 2: is going to tell exactly what happened, and so that 1080 01:18:17,080 --> 01:18:20,439 Speaker 2: if it makes it too Discovery, then a lot of 1081 01:18:20,560 --> 01:18:24,800 Speaker 2: questions will be answered for the court and in term 1082 01:18:24,960 --> 01:18:25,759 Speaker 2: for the public. 1083 01:18:26,720 --> 01:18:27,920 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1084 01:18:28,080 --> 01:18:32,320 Speaker 2: As for Kenya Carlos King, have you heard from her? 1085 01:18:32,479 --> 01:18:35,559 Speaker 2: Have you spoken to her? How is she doing even 1086 01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:41,160 Speaker 2: though she's not being sued. Does she feel like she no, 1087 01:18:42,120 --> 01:18:45,960 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Does she feel like she was the scapegoat 1088 01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:48,439 Speaker 2: for this? Does she feel like she had to die 1089 01:18:48,439 --> 01:18:49,479 Speaker 2: on the sword for this? 1090 01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:50,479 Speaker 1: You know? 1091 01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:51,120 Speaker 2: How is she? 1092 01:18:52,680 --> 01:18:52,960 Speaker 3: Well? 1093 01:18:53,000 --> 01:18:55,439 Speaker 1: She did a live on Sunday and she appears to 1094 01:18:55,439 --> 01:18:58,040 Speaker 1: be in a great mood.
