Lot it take y'all a court now. 10 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: Today we are talking Cassie and Diddy because this was 11 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,280 Speaker 1: Cassie's first day on the stand as one of the 12 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 1: key witnesses in Diddy's rico trial and Diddy's sex trafficking trial. Right, 13 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 1: so there was a lot to unpack here. Let's just 14 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 1: talk about her demeanor first before I get into one 15 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:50,200 Speaker 1: of the main points I want to talk about today. 16 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 1: Cassie breaking down and having conversation and watching in an 17 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: open courtroom the video where she was beaten and dragged 18 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: by Ditty back in twenty sixteen. Her demeanor. She handled 19 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,680 Speaker 1: it so well, y'all. The first half of court, she 20 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: was definitely invisibly. You know, she was a little upset, 21 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: she was tearing. She didn't completely break down, though, she 22 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: held her composure really really well. Second half, even when 23 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: she was watching this video, didn't even break right. So 24 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: we spent the whole day learning the background of Cassie 25 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: and Puff. Like they had been dating for over ten years. 26 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: She was super young when she met him. Her twenty 27 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,400 Speaker 1: first birthday, she spent with him in Vegas. That was 28 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: the first time they kissed. She talked about how she 29 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: didn't want that, and you know, she set the scene 30 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: early for her being a super green, super young girl 31 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: who met this mogul who was going to change her 32 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: life through music. And eventually she just leaned all the 33 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,119 Speaker 1: way in and now here we are with her sitting 34 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: on the stand in front of us, but the prosecutors. 35 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: You know, as she was talking about the free calls, 36 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: and she broke it down right. She talked about, you know, 37 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: the free calls had five steps. Step one was masturbation. 38 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 1: She would have to master bait to the escort and 39 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: explain every single detail out loud to Puff. Step two, 40 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: they were rubbing baby on each other like crazy, to 41 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: the point where like she said, every five minutes, if 42 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: puff thought you weren't oiled enough, you would have to 43 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: go put more oil. It was so much oil that 44 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 1: like they would have to pay damages in the hotel 45 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: rooms because the oil was everywhere. Step three was oral sex, 46 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: she said. Cassie told us that she would even skip 47 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: to the oral sex sometimes or like rush it because 48 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: she just would want to get to the ending. She 49 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:30,639 Speaker 1: woul want to get it over with. She want to 50 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,679 Speaker 1: get to having actual sex so it could be over. 51 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 1: Step four she talked about was the actual sex. Now, 52 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: when she talked about the actual sex, she made sure 53 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: that she mentioned that a lot of times. You know, 54 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: she alleged that Diddy wouldn't even be involved. He would 55 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: just sit and watching master bait, as we've heard, but 56 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: she said there were sometimes where he would get involved 57 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: and literally like she would allegedly be having sex with 58 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: an escort while giving heads a puff. And she said, 59 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: at some points it was so much going on she 60 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 1: just didn't even know, like it was just it was 61 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: just so much going on, right, And she said that, 62 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: you know, when the escorts would come, Diddy allegedly liked 63 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 1: it when they would come on her. And then she 64 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: was supposed to take that come and rub it on 65 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: his nipples and on his chest. That was the thing 66 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:20,239 Speaker 1: that I guess he liked. Allegedly, that was all it was, y'all. 67 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 1: It was a lot of It was a lot of 68 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: It was a lot. Okay. Her testimony was very but 69 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: but she was so calm, and she was so like 70 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: just trying to tell the full story in the best 71 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: way that she could. She didn't leave out a lot 72 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 1: of the good either. She got to the bad kind 73 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: of quick, but she didn't leave out the good. Like 74 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: she talked about having a good time with him, everything 75 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: she experienced, all the traveling, everything she learned, like just 76 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: being so amazed by his life. But baby, when she 77 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: got to the bad did she get to it. So 78 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: they're talking about the freak offs and the prosecutors are like, yo, 79 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: why didn't you ever just like leave? And she was like, well, 80 00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: there was a time where I tried to leave, she said, 81 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: and her direct quote was it was she said, I 82 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: was trying to leave in this situation. And that's the 83 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: video that we saw that CNN broke of Cassie being 84 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: drug dragged down the hall and beaten in the Intercontinental 85 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: Hotel in LA in twenty sixteen. So prosecutors when she 86 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 1: brings this up, they bring up text messages first. They 87 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: don't play the video first. They bring up text messages first, 88 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: and they're like, okay, so that video was March twenty sixteen, right, 89 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: let's we're gonna bring up text from around that time 90 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 1: of that video. Actually, I believe that was the same day. 91 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: So Cassie mentioned on the stand that that video that 92 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: we saw where she's getting beaten in that hotel was 93 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: a weekend. She actually had a huge movie premiere coming 94 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: up that Monday. So the text that we're looking at 95 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: Cassie is named baby Girl in their text messages, and 96 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: Diddy is pop Up right, because it did again, she 97 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: had this whole weird thing about calling him pop up 98 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 1: because he wanted to be called with her. Granddad was 99 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: called I don't know. But she textedy and was like, 100 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: I want to foh so bad, And then the prosecutors 101 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: asked her to clarify, like what does that mean, and 102 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: she says that it meant that she wanted to have 103 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 1: a free cough so bad, And in text she's like, 104 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 1: I want to foh so bad, but I don't want 105 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: to mess myself up, because again she had given us 106 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 1: a whole half of day testimony about how when she 107 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: would do these free calls, they would be so high 108 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 1: and so drunk it would take her days to get 109 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: herself back together. And she was like, she didn't want 110 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 1: to be hungover and sick because again she got this 111 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: huge movie premier coming up, right, so she texted Puff that. 112 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 1: And of course the first question in my mind is like, well, wait, 113 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: cause you just said this whole time I didn't want 114 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 1: to like when I if I could have counted the 115 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: amount of times that Cassie told us she did not 116 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: want to be having sex with other men, but did 117 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: it because she loved Puff and she thought she had too, 118 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: and she didn't want to do it with nobody else 119 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: and she didn't want to be beating Yo. If I 120 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 1: had one hundred dollars for every time I heard that, 121 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 1: I would have had a hundred thousand dollars a day 122 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: leaving a courtroom. So to see the text with her 123 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: being like the initiator of it, I was like, hold up, 124 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: But the prosecutors know what they're doing, right, They bringing 125 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 1: that up first, because if they bring it up first, 126 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: they can kind of plant the narrative in our minds 127 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: first about why were why that even happen? Right, So 128 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: they asked her, why did you say you want to 129 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: have a free cough? And Cassie answered she was trying 130 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: to damage control. She felt like if she pleased him 131 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: that weekend, he would be in a happy, great mood 132 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: and she could go to her movie premiere on Monday. 133 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: No issues, no bruises, allegedly, no nothing, right, So she 134 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: was trying to get ahead of it. Now they're like, okay, 135 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: and the freak cough happened. Allegedly, that freak off is 136 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 1: what we were seeing. That's where that video came from, 137 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: where she's getting beaten in the hotel. So Cassie then 138 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: goes into detail the free cough. Right, So, she allegends 139 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: that there was a lot of drinking. There was a 140 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: lot of party in that day. She says she thought 141 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: it was like a Friday or Saturday. She thinks it 142 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: was a Friday. She says at some point within them partying, drinking, 143 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: having a good time with an escort. There was an 144 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 1: escort there that she had named a couple times in 145 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: her testimony today, So obviously this was the escort that 146 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: they were kind of familiar with. She says, at some 147 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: point she ended up getting hit in the face by Puff. 148 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: She alleged that didd he hit her in her face 149 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: right at some point, and she couldn't remember why he 150 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: did it, but she just remember being hit, and she 151 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 1: said it instantly gave her a black and purple eye, right, 152 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: and y'all will remember, and that's what she's alleging, y'all 153 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: will remember the security guard that I told y'all they 154 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: kind of blew his spot up. Diddy's team did. He 155 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: said that when he came off the elevator, Cassie had 156 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: a blue up like a purple eye, right, but it 157 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: wasn't in his incident report. That's what Diddy's team pointed out. 158 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 1: But she says she had got basically like a blue 159 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: and purple eye, like a black eye. So she was like, Nah, 160 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: I gotta get out of here. I can't allow him 161 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: he lit right now. I can't allow him to like, 162 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: you know me too bad. I got to be somewhere Monday, 163 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: and I don't want to miss it. That was the 164 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: energy that she says she was given, right, So she 165 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: says she got all her stuff as much as she 166 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: could the prosecutors acts. Did the male escorts allegedly see 167 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: her get hit by Puff? And she said, no, he 168 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: was in another room, like they were all. It sounds 169 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: like they were in the suite, like they were all 170 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: in the same room, but he was in another room, right, 171 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: So she's like, no, we were in another room, so 172 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: he didn't see it. He was still there though, so 173 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: potentially he could have heard some things. And to me, 174 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: that stuck out because I'm like, okay, that's a witness. 175 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: Then he's a witness. He can come and speak to 176 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: some things if he needs to or not right, and 177 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 1: then it works out in somebody's favor or it doesn't. 178 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: So she's like, you know, at that point, she just 179 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 1: wanted to grab her stuff and get out of there. 180 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: So that's what she did. When she felt like Puff 181 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: wasn't beying attention or whatever the case it'd be. She 182 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: grabbed the stuff. She got out of there. She's chucking 183 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 1: it like she's get She's to the elevator, she's trying 184 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,439 Speaker 1: to get out of there, and then boom. That's where 185 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:01,839 Speaker 1: the video picks up. It was interesting to hear kind 186 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 1: of like what her backstory was because Puffs team is 187 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: painting this as this alleged like toxic relationship that was 188 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: just so bad on both ends that it boiled over 189 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: into things like what we saw like him dragging her 190 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: down the hallway, right, But they basically are saying, but 191 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: she's not without fault either, right now in the video 192 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: did he does have a phone that he goes and 193 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 1: grabs back from Cassie in that video? Right? But Puffs 194 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: Team also alleged that because Cassie said, I was just 195 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: trying to go home. I was just trying to get 196 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 1: out of there. Puffs Team said, no, Diddy was trying 197 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: to get her out of there. The prosecutors today did 198 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,959 Speaker 1: something very interesting, And I'm gonna ended with this because 199 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 1: we have so much more that we're going to be 200 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 1: talking about this week, and I want you to follow 201 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 1: me on socials. I'm Lauren la Rose that I do 202 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 1: additional breakdowns there as well too, especially on the Breakfast 203 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 1: Club as well. But I'm gonna leave it with this 204 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,319 Speaker 1: because this is going to lead into where I believe 205 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 1: we are going to pick up tomorrow, because the prosecution 206 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 1: has to come back in tomorrow and I think that 207 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 1: this is where Diddy's team will probably they're gonna try 208 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: to pick it apart. They rewind this video back right, 209 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: and they're planning for Cassie a couple times and again, Yo, 210 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: she never breaks down the whole time. She getting through it. Okay. 211 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: Her brother and her husband are sitting in front of 212 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: me as they're replanning and rewatching this video the part 213 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: where she actually gets dragged. I'm paying attention to them. 214 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,839 Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know if I could sit through that. 215 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: I'm assuming this isn't their first time seeing the video there, right, 216 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: but still, it's like all these people in court. It's 217 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: the image of her sitting on the stin and she's pregnant, 218 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 1: and she's tearing up, and she's having to rewatch this 219 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,719 Speaker 1: multiple times in front of all these people. And I'd 220 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: already been told she didn't even want to be there. 221 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: It would have hit me. It's hardy to hit me 222 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 1: a little bit. I'm like, Yo, my damn, I like 223 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: choking up, like cause I in that moment, it wasn't 224 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: about Cassie or Diddy. I felt for a woman who 225 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: was beat the way that Cassie was beating that video. 226 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: Having to relive that moment and be embarrassed in front 227 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 1: of all of these people and having to be judged 228 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: about that moment, in the fact that she stayed with 229 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: him after that moment in front of all of these people. 230 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: But her husband, he didn't really like he was a 231 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: little antsy at first, like he was moving around a lot, 232 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: moving around a lot her brother. It's not like he 233 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 1: broke down her crowd or anything, but I wouldn't say 234 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: he was like, Okay, Alex shot a couple looks at 235 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: Diddy during this video. Alex Fine is a Cassie's husband. 236 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 1: But basically getting to my last point, the prosecutors rewinded 237 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: the video back and they played this one point where 238 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,439 Speaker 1: in one frame they showed Ditty and he has Cassie's 239 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 1: bags in her hand, and they asked her what is 240 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,680 Speaker 1: that in his hand, and she says, those are my bags. 241 00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: He had ken he grabbed my bags out my hand 242 00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: and went back to the room. So then they grab 243 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: another frame of Puff walking back out of the room, 244 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: back out to the elevator lobby area where Cassie was right, 245 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: and they're like, what's in his hand now, And she's 246 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: looking and she's like, I don't know. Then she looks 247 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,680 Speaker 1: again and she's like, I don't think there's anything in 248 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 1: his hand. And they're like, okay, we'll rest today, you're honor. 249 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: We'll pick this back up tomorrow. I said, Oh, the 250 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: prosecutors are way more subtle at how they do it 251 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: Diddy's team. I mean, they're on a defense, so they 252 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: you know, they got to be a little bit more, 253 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: you know, but subtly. They made such a loud statement 254 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: with those two frames, because the whole premise of Diddy's 255 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 1: team's argument is that Diddy maybe a man who has 256 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 1: committed domestic violence, who has committed assault, who has been 257 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,719 Speaker 1: a jerk to his girlfriends, who has said things he 258 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 1: shouldn't have said, treated people at work the way he 259 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 1: shouldn't have treated them. This overall been an asshole, and 260 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: he'll own up to that, right, but that's not what 261 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 1: he's on trial for in this situation. The way Diddy's 262 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: legal team is setting it up is he was in 263 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: a toxic relationship that was very tumultuous, that was you know, jealousy, inflaming, 264 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 1: and golf. They used a witness to get this out 265 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 1: into the jury. When you saw that video, at that point, 266 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 1: Puff was just trying to get her home, get her away, 267 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: because this toxic thing had builed over and boom, they 268 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 1: just wanted to end. After that, prosecutors already showed the 269 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: video of him dragging her back to the hotel, right 270 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: back to the hotel room. Right now. They show that 271 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: he doesn't have the bags in his hands. You don't 272 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 1: want her to go home. You're not allowing her to 273 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: go home, in my opinion, if you're taking her bags 274 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: out of her hand and then you're dragging her by 275 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: her hair. And a lot of people are like, well, 276 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: where does the sex trafficking come into all of this? 277 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: Where does all of that come into all of this? 278 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: But when you're talking about you know, any of that 279 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: right being able to bring people across state lines for 280 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 1: sex and these things, and you know, threatening them with 281 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: you know, allegedly threatening them with videos and with your 282 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 1: power and all of that. The best thing that the 283 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: prosecution did today was they made Cassie human because a 284 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: lot of us had heard about this so much, had 285 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: seen you know, her civil suit, and then had heard 286 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: that she was a part of this criminal suit. But 287 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 1: I don't think we humanized even after that video. I 288 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: think a lot of people did, but I think still 289 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: people were like I don't really know. I don't really know. 290 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: I after Diddy's defense team came in, I was like, 291 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: I don't really know, y'all. And I'm still kind of 292 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: like I don't know. I need to see some more. 293 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 1: But after today, the way I empathized with Cassie being 294 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: this girl who just found herself in all of this 295 00:14:56,480 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 1: mess and and the optics of that video were like, 296 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: it's like she narrated that video today and it's like, 297 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: now we saw it, we saw. We didn't see Cassie 298 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: who was like this woman who kept going back to 299 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: this man who was abusing her, and who was using 300 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 1: drugs with this man allegedly, and who you know, may 301 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 1: or may not been involved all these things. We didn't 302 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: see that. What we saw was twenty one year old 303 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 1: Cassie who felt like this situation because she said it 304 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: when she started off her testimony with this, and ironically 305 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: it ended up back here if you really called what 306 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: they were doing, it ended up back here. She found 307 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: herself in a situation that was so much bigger than her, 308 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 1: where the control was so much bigger than her. All 309 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: she could do was just be there and be in it. 310 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 1: And that's what she did in the video and they 311 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: said to her, why did you just lay their lifeless? 312 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: She said it felt like the safest place, and I 313 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 1: was like, baby, this is about to get good. This 314 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 1: is about to get good. Okay, So we're gonna get 315 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: into some more. This is the latest with Lauren and Rosa.
