There was a 0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:50.120 massive argument via paper to keep Shawn Combs behind bars, 0:00:50.200 --> 0:00:52.960 the defense fighting tooth and nail to let him out 0:00:53.000 --> 0:00:58.080 on appeal bond, which means you get out while your 0:00:58.160 --> 0:01:02.640 conviction is being appear joining me right now Tisa Tales. 0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:06.280 You can find her on YouTube at Tisa Tales. Tisa 0:01:06.640 --> 0:01:12.240 start at the beginning, Start with the verdict, the split. 0:01:12.800 --> 0:01:16.680 What happened when the jury walked in, everybody was on 0:01:16.760 --> 0:01:17.520 pins and needles. 0:01:17.600 --> 0:01:18.600 I'm not gonna lie. 0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:22.280 Everybody in the courtroom expected him to be guilty on 0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:26.640 at least the sex trafficking. There was a somber tone. 0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:29.480 They walked in and when they. 0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:33.520 Said please read, and they said, what do you find ye? 0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:34.880 On count one? 0:01:35.400 --> 0:01:38.319 Not guilty? It was a bomb that went off in 0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:43.560 the courtroom. The public audibly gassed. Nobody was expecting that. 0:01:43.920 --> 0:01:46.800 There were tears of joy from Ditty's side. 0:01:47.240 --> 0:01:51.480 Count two, what say ye not guilty? Again? 0:01:51.840 --> 0:01:55.960 Another bombshell went off. People were in utter disbelief. Any 0:01:56.040 --> 0:01:59.240 even Ditty's most ardent supporters, did not expect him to 0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:02.520 get off on the count of sex trafficking with Cassie. 0:02:02.720 --> 0:02:07.520 Count three when they said guilty for transportation of a prostitute, 0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:11.480 When they said guilty for the manna, that is when 0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:16.000 did He's team actually cheered, Yeah, that's all right, okay, okay, 0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:19.160 come on, almost like we were watching a pro football game. 0:02:19.440 --> 0:02:22.040 When the other ones came in after that, there were 0:02:22.160 --> 0:02:25.960 jaws on the ground. It was unbelievable. People were looking 0:02:26.000 --> 0:02:28.799 at the jury, searching and to how they can get 0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:33.040 a verdict in this day and age. They heard Cassie's mother, 0:02:33.480 --> 0:02:37.240 the twenty thousand, they heard Capricorn Clark, they heard about 0:02:37.240 --> 0:02:41.040 the savage beatings, and it was unbelievable that the only 0:02:41.120 --> 0:02:42.960 thing they said was prostitution. 0:02:43.360 --> 0:02:45.440 And that is because Daniel. 0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:48.400 Phillips in his testimony actually said, at least I'm guessing 0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:51.240 that it was because that he got paid to have 0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:53.400 sex for money. 0:02:53.520 --> 0:02:57.840 It was a travesty. It was an all out circus. 0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:01.440 Everybody, including myself, are running to safety. 0:03:01.560 --> 0:03:03.160 I got a question for your tast of tales, and 0:03:03.200 --> 0:03:06.040 everyone's going to want to know this. You're in a 0:03:06.080 --> 0:03:09.119 car right now. You had to leave the courthouse. 0:03:09.200 --> 0:03:13.359 Why I had to leave the courthouse because Diddy's supporters 0:03:13.480 --> 0:03:14.480 were out of control. 0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:16.440 The first time I ran and dipped my live. 0:03:16.880 --> 0:03:20.640 Of course, I had two armed security guys. Everyone told 0:03:20.639 --> 0:03:22.440 me the people in the courthouse is like, make sure 0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:23.400 you have security. 0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:26.040 There's a lot of weird stuff going on. It wasn't 0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:28.359 just me, but I'll tell you what I experienced. 0:03:28.480 --> 0:03:32.320 Diddy's support is surrounding me, threatening me, saying that they 0:03:32.320 --> 0:03:35.160 were going to hurt me. It was a serious situation. 0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:38.360 It got so bad and there was so much chaos 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:41.760 of chaos and violence that they actually had to lock 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:45.600 the courtroom down and force the Diddy supporters across the street. 0:03:45.840 --> 0:03:50.120 It was something myself, the news media, mainstream media, new 0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:53.120 media have never seen in their lives. 0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:56.280 The level and again the jurors. 0:03:56.640 --> 0:04:01.400 I hope to God they know how to sleep night, because. 0:04:01.080 --> 0:04:02.880 Again I'm sure they did their duty. 0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:05.880 But when all that cast was happening, as I was 0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:10.280 being threatened and ushered out by armed security people, I thought, 0:04:10.760 --> 0:04:12.120 this is what the jury did. 0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:15.400 They sent a signal that it is okay to use. 0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:19.440 Violence, It's okay to drug people up, it's okay to 0:04:19.560 --> 0:04:23.200 live a life of debauchery. It's okay to do whatever 0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:25.920 you want. Because guess what if you work hard enough, 0:04:26.080 --> 0:04:29.239 and you have enough money and enough de losional fans, 0:04:29.400 --> 0:04:32.880 and you have engrained yourself in culture enough that you 0:04:32.920 --> 0:04:36.880 can do whatever you want, and twelve of your peers 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:38.799 will look the other way. 0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:41.799 Again, this jury was shocking. 0:04:41.480 --> 0:04:42.159 Taste of tales. 0:04:42.240 --> 0:04:46.599 When you say that Shawonkhim's supporters threatened you, what were 0:04:46.600 --> 0:04:47.120 they saying? 0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:50.839 They were saying you B you F and B were 0:04:50.880 --> 0:04:53.360 going to kill you? You F and B. You worked. 0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:56.359 Apparently I worked for the fans. You're a plant. You 0:04:56.480 --> 0:04:58.640 make this all up because of you. Again, they're not 0:04:58.680 --> 0:04:59.600 too smart. 0:04:59.480 --> 0:05:00.240 Because of you. 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.240 That's how this case got started. We're gonna treat you 0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:04.839 worse than we treated Cassie. 0:05:04.960 --> 0:05:06.080 Cassie, what we do. 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:08.279 To you, it's gonna be nothing that they had on Cassie. 0:05:08.480 --> 0:05:11.279 They were screaming, they were yelling. Some people were saying, 0:05:11.360 --> 0:05:15.360 apologize the Diddy, apologize the Ditty. Of course, thank goodness. 0:05:15.640 --> 0:05:18.720 We had Lenny and we had Jimmy, two of the 0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:21.920 best arm guards out there. So the one thing is 0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:25.880 they and also they started foaming like wild dogs because 0:05:25.880 --> 0:05:29.120 they realized that I was not an unprotected woman, and 0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:31.760 they realized they could not just do what they felt like, 0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:35.800 And they started foaming like wild dogs, screaming, their voices 0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:40.400 cracking in anger that they ricially wanted to rip me apart. 0:05:40.600 --> 0:05:43.040 This is why their hero had been exonerated. 0:05:43.360 --> 0:05:46.520 Even in the best of times, these people that support him, 0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:48.400 there's something wrong with it. 0:05:48.440 --> 0:05:50.800 And I gotta tell you, Nancy, it wasn't just me. 0:05:51.360 --> 0:05:53.400 It was not just me. 0:05:53.920 --> 0:05:57.559 It was anybody that didn't have a pro Diddy stamp 0:05:57.760 --> 0:05:58.520 from the beginning. 0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:02.400 That's who stuffed joining me an all star panel. But 0:06:02.560 --> 0:06:06.679 I want to thank Tisa Tales for what she's doing tonight. 0:06:07.640 --> 0:06:09.640 You know, Rob Shooter is joining me. 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:11.479 Rob. 0:06:12.080 --> 0:06:14.360 I really don't know where to start. This is a blow. 0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:18.320 This is a huge blow to crime victims all over 0:06:18.360 --> 0:06:22.359 the country. Huge blow. The big news is right now, 0:06:22.480 --> 0:06:27.200 Sean Combs is going to jail. Okay, He's going to jail. 0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:31.120 I was actually worried that somehow. 0:06:30.480 --> 0:06:32.000 The judge would contriveting the law. 0:06:32.279 --> 0:06:35.200 And the law is under the Bell Reform Act that 0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:37.960 for these two charges on which he was convicted he 0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:38.960 has to go to jail. 0:06:39.560 --> 0:06:41.839 There is no appeal bond period. 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:46.680 But I was so concerned that the judge would somehow 0:06:46.760 --> 0:06:49.040 find a way to let him walk. 0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:51.040 And all this time, Shooter. 0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:53.839 We've been hearing. I've got all these letters here. Here's 0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:58.200 one from Deontay Nash in fear. In fear talking about 0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:03.760 Combs is long documented history a violent retaliatory behavior. 0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:07.239 They're afraid. Rob Shooter. 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:12.720 Guys, Shooter knows comes better than any of us. His 0:07:12.960 --> 0:07:16.640 longtime publicists no more. But now you can find him 0:07:16.720 --> 0:07:20.600 at his substack Robshooter dot substack dot com and not 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:21.920 Ey but Nice podcast. 0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:22.640 Shooter. 0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:24.320 I got to tell you, it's like a kick in 0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:26.640 the stomach when that split verdict came down. 0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:30.160 Yeah, I think everybody was done before. Before I continue, then, Nancy, 0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:32.960 I just want to send my best to Tisha. What 0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:36.560 happened to her outside that courthouse is horrific. It's wrong, 0:07:36.960 --> 0:07:40.800 and I'm afraid these people now have been emboldened because 0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:44.280 their hero, their idol, Diddy looks like he is going 0:07:44.320 --> 0:07:44.920 to walk free. 0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:48.680 So this morning, when we heard the judgment, I think we. 0:07:48.520 --> 0:07:52.320 Were all shell shocked, we were all heartbroken, we all 0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:55.440 felt like we'd been kicked in the stomach. However, as 0:07:55.480 --> 0:07:58.680 the day has gone on, we do have to remember, 0:07:58.760 --> 0:08:01.760 Nancy that he has been found guilty of two. 0:08:02.280 --> 0:08:04.160 Very serious charges. 0:08:04.440 --> 0:08:08.680 If any other celebrity had been charged with those two charges, 0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:12.200 those alone and being found guilty, we would be done 0:08:12.200 --> 0:08:16.640 with them. So the celebration from Team Diddy, the disappointment 0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:19.680 from people who've been watching this as closely as we have, 0:08:20.160 --> 0:08:22.880 I think we can take a step back both sides 0:08:23.160 --> 0:08:26.920 and realize that this is not a good day for Diddy. 0:08:27.240 --> 0:08:31.720 He is now a federal criminal, is in jail tonight, 0:08:32.000 --> 0:08:35.200 He's going to remain there until he is sentenced, and 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:37.840 so at least take some solace in that. 0:08:38.480 --> 0:08:44.040 You know, Rob Shooter, I've been getting flooded by crime victims, 0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:47.080 rape victims from all walks of life. 0:08:47.400 --> 0:08:49.040 There are upset. 0:08:49.800 --> 0:08:54.360 They don't really sound mad, yet they're devastated, They're sad, 0:08:54.600 --> 0:08:59.640 they can't believe this has happened. I've been already subjected 0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:04.560 to a lot of attacks, verbal attacks, and nothing like 0:09:04.600 --> 0:09:09.400 what Tisa tells has been subjected to already. But I 0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:12.800 give the credit to the prosecutors for going in there. 0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:16.359 And I truly believe this was a David and Goliath, 0:09:17.360 --> 0:09:20.800 and they went in against one of the highest profile 0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:28.240 personalities in our country, Sean Comes, who many people think 0:09:28.240 --> 0:09:32.720 that they know and they love him, and for some reason, 0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:39.000 that blinded them, that drowned out everything that three sex 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:41.000 attack victims said. 0:09:41.200 --> 0:09:46.520 And one had the video? What had the video? I 0:09:46.640 --> 0:09:48.839 just I don't get it. 0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:52.760 Rob Sheeter, give me some insight and to how Sean 0:09:52.920 --> 0:09:57.040 Comes got a split vertic. But yes, you're right, he 0:09:57.320 --> 0:10:02.439 is going to jail on two felonies, two felonies. That's 0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:05.000 a victory that Sean Comes is going to jail. 0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:06.040 Yeah, that's a victory. 0:10:06.080 --> 0:10:08.720 We have to hang on for that, Nancy, because in 0:10:08.760 --> 0:10:11.200 this moment, in this hour, it's not a lot of hope. 0:10:11.240 --> 0:10:12.440 Everything seems so bad. 0:10:12.520 --> 0:10:15.880 We have let down not just the people in this case, 0:10:16.120 --> 0:10:20.440 but victims around the world. Did he now will be 0:10:20.679 --> 0:10:24.680 empowered this is not the end of the story, Nancy. 0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:27.440 When he gets out of jail, if he gets out 0:10:27.480 --> 0:10:32.720 of jail, his behavior will not change because he thinks 0:10:32.760 --> 0:10:33.280 he has. 0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:36.720 Gotten away with it. Again. If you enable. 0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:40.160 Someone, Nancy, they do not change. So mark my words, Nancy, 0:10:40.480 --> 0:10:42.840 this is not the end of the did he story. 0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:45.480 It's the end of a very very sad chapter. And 0:10:45.520 --> 0:10:47.960 I think we've let a lot of people down. And 0:10:48.040 --> 0:10:50.959 as far as being concerned about safety, I just broke 0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:55.040 reporting that Cassie has now increased her security. Cassie in 0:10:55.200 --> 0:10:59.520 New York, her home now has security increased. And I 0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:02.600 think a lot of other people, courageous people who came 0:11:02.679 --> 0:11:07.839 forward assistance, people that worked with Diddy came forward and testified. 0:11:08.120 --> 0:11:12.400 They're very vulnerable and they are very, very scared right now. 0:11:13.760 --> 0:11:17.400 Lynn Shaw joining me, Founder and director Lynn's Warriors, dedicated 0:11:17.440 --> 0:11:21.640 to ending sex trafficking and sex abuse on girls and women. 0:11:23.320 --> 0:11:28.319 When I learned about the split verdict, I was speechless. 0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:30.480 I couldn't believe it. 0:11:30.840 --> 0:11:31.880 But it's happened. 0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:33.920 So what do you want the prosecutors to do? Go 0:11:34.040 --> 0:11:36.680 home and hide under the bed. Should they have just 0:11:36.840 --> 0:11:39.319 never even brought the case? They did it because they 0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:42.240 believed it, and I still do believe it. 0:11:42.440 --> 0:11:42.800 Lynn. 0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:48.640 I believe Cassie Ventira was coerced and beaten into having 0:11:49.080 --> 0:11:51.160 sex with male sex workers. 0:11:51.440 --> 0:11:53.640 That's sex trafficking. I believe her. 0:11:54.000 --> 0:11:58.480 I believe Cassie. I believe Jane. I believe sex trafficking. 0:11:58.800 --> 0:12:01.679 This is a sober reflection today on everything I've been 0:12:01.720 --> 0:12:04.360 talking about for about eight weeks now with this trial 0:12:05.040 --> 0:12:09.280 that the public and I'm going to say the jurors, okay, 0:12:09.480 --> 0:12:15.960 do not understand predation power, what sex trafficking is. And 0:12:16.000 --> 0:12:20.200 a reminder again, this case was not just about one man. 0:12:20.360 --> 0:12:23.960 This case was about all of the victims across the 0:12:24.080 --> 0:12:27.679 country the world whose voices have been silenced because they 0:12:27.720 --> 0:12:32.800 don't come forward because the justice system usually picks power, wealth, 0:12:33.120 --> 0:12:36.640 status over believing their truths. But I want to point out, 0:12:36.720 --> 0:12:39.800 as the day enrolled, there is hope. I've spent all 0:12:39.960 --> 0:12:44.520 day coaching people, talking people, fielding text messages, and I 0:12:44.559 --> 0:12:46.680 want to say, you know what, these victims that reach 0:12:46.679 --> 0:12:49.280 out to me, Nancy, they're not even angry, you know 0:12:49.320 --> 0:12:52.880 what they keep saying. Please, Lynn, please remind everybody we're victims. 0:12:52.880 --> 0:12:56.079 Please remind everybody we have a voice. Please, remind everybody 0:12:56.280 --> 0:12:59.600 we are here, and that goes back to I have 0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:02.040 to do. We have to do in society a better 0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:07.800 job of educating about sex, trafficking, about trauma, bonding, trauma, 0:13:08.080 --> 0:13:11.439 what predation really looks like. This is the most frightening 0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:15.560 thing to empower this. Sean Combs and I just want 0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:18.080 to make the commitment that we will work very hard 0:13:18.160 --> 0:13:21.960 to continue reforming, raising awareness and working with the justice system. 0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:24.120 Straight back out to Tisa Tales, who has made it 0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:27.240 to a safe location, Tisa Tales. I want to talk 0:13:27.280 --> 0:13:32.040 about what happened when the split verdict was announced in 0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:34.880 the courtroom, and then I want to move to the 0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:38.400 appeal bond hearing. Let's start with the split verdict. Take 0:13:38.440 --> 0:13:40.400 it from the very beginning. 0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:44.160 The split verdict, from the very beginning. When you heard 0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:49.160 count one not guilty, a bomb went off in the courtroom. 0:13:49.240 --> 0:13:52.080 Not guilty. No one could believe it. 0:13:52.440 --> 0:13:56.160 Song Diddy's calm side even looked around as if they 0:13:56.480 --> 0:14:01.480 hadn't heard correctly. No one thought that the jury would actually. 0:14:01.040 --> 0:14:01.760 Go this far. 0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:06.920 Everybody thought that the delay meant that he was actually guilty. 0:14:07.360 --> 0:14:12.240 When the second count was read again, jawls dropped open. 0:14:12.679 --> 0:14:16.800 Did he leaned back in relief, raised his hands. The 0:14:16.800 --> 0:14:17.800 defense team was. 0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:22.240 Like, yes, I get it. They literally pulled a magic act. Okay, 0:14:22.640 --> 0:14:26.560 they literally pulled a magic act. His team, his side, 0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:30.640 started celebrating, started saying yeah, when we heard the third count, 0:14:30.760 --> 0:14:35.520 guilty for the prostitution, okay, everyone on his side it 0:14:35.600 --> 0:14:35.800 was like. 0:14:35.840 --> 0:14:37.320 That's okay, that's okay. 0:14:37.560 --> 0:14:40.680 They were clapping, almost like they were watching a football game. 0:14:40.920 --> 0:14:43.520 When they first came out with the verdict. The prosecution 0:14:43.680 --> 0:14:46.160 was doing what they were doing. They were looking straight 0:14:46.360 --> 0:14:48.640 and it's a job, I would assume, to look like 0:14:48.680 --> 0:14:51.160 they always have it under control. By the time they 0:14:51.200 --> 0:14:54.600 got to the third count, Marine called me looked over 0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:56.600 at the jury in disbelief. 0:14:56.960 --> 0:14:58.760 Literally again, she's always. 0:14:58.600 --> 0:15:01.480 Very composed, but even for her to finally look over 0:15:01.520 --> 0:15:04.680 at the jury on some are you kidding me? And 0:15:04.760 --> 0:15:08.400 she just kept looking at the jury as they read 0:15:08.440 --> 0:15:11.720 the counts. Again, I know the jury did their best, 0:15:11.800 --> 0:15:15.440 but I cannot feel that justice was served. How can 0:15:15.480 --> 0:15:18.520 you forget the vicious beatings, How can you forget the 0:15:18.560 --> 0:15:21.520 twenty k the mom had to wire and order for 0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:24.200 two freak off tapes not to be released. 0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:26.320 Okay, that's what she thought. When she wired it. 0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:29.680 How can you forget what happened to Bonna being hung 0:15:29.800 --> 0:15:30.600 over balcony. 0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:32.600 She might have got the date wrong by a few 0:15:32.680 --> 0:15:35.200 days days, but the point is it happened. 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:39.280 How you can forget Deontay Nash and the best friend 0:15:39.320 --> 0:15:42.160 Carrie who got a hangar to the head and saw 0:15:42.240 --> 0:15:46.280 Cassie get impiled driven into the corner of a bed 0:15:46.520 --> 0:15:50.000 on purpose. How can you forget all that and come 0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:53.080 back and say, you know what, we don't see anything 0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:58.160 criminal here again. We can argue about the procesxcuse prostitution 0:15:58.600 --> 0:15:59.320 got ditty. 0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:01.520 On the head. We can argue about the prosecution what 0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:02.240 they could. 0:16:02.000 --> 0:16:04.760 Have did better, But the fact that the jury chose 0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:08.040 to overlook all that. It brought me back to what 0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:12.040 Rob Shooter said weeks ago when I first started joining you, Nacy, 0:16:12.280 --> 0:16:16.560 that people get starstrucked and they want some of that magic. 0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:19.160 And it makes me wonder were they starstruck? 0:16:19.240 --> 0:16:22.080 Were they feeling sorry and trying to protect a legacy 0:16:22.400 --> 0:16:25.720 for someone that hit their depravity and their evil ways 0:16:25.760 --> 0:16:26.360 behind it. 0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:26.880 It makes you. 0:16:26.920 --> 0:16:36.120 Wonder Crime stories with Nancy Grace. 0:16:40.360 --> 0:16:47.640 Bombshell Tonight, Sean Comes aka Diddy goes to jail, that's right. 0:16:47.960 --> 0:16:52.880 After a last ditch bid at an appeal bond, he 0:16:53.040 --> 0:16:57.280 was denied and is going to jail right now as 0:16:57.400 --> 0:17:00.440 we speak, Joining Man All Star Panel. 0:17:00.840 --> 0:17:03.120 Back to Tasa Tails joining us. She had to be. 0:17:03.320 --> 0:17:06.920 Escorted by armed guards out of the courthouse and leave 0:17:07.040 --> 0:17:11.800 the scene after she was mobbed by Diddy fans. Explain 0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:14.600 to me what was happening outside the courthouse. I understand 0:17:14.880 --> 0:17:19.360 that was the split verdict was announced. The Diddy followers, 0:17:19.400 --> 0:17:24.240 the Diddy worshippers went cray outside the courthouse, actually dousing 0:17:24.320 --> 0:17:26.720 each other with baby oil and chanting. 0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:30.440 They formed the circle. It looked like a mush pit 0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:31.199 of depravity. 0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:35.240 They were spraying baby oil on each other, jumping around, 0:17:35.480 --> 0:17:39.080 feeling fantastic. One woman and a pair of Calvin kleinb 0:17:39.240 --> 0:17:43.960 briefs and agra started jumping up and down, wiggling why 0:17:44.080 --> 0:17:46.880 they sat there spraying baby on her, and the crowd. 0:17:46.640 --> 0:17:49.520 Was channing yay, yay, yay go and. 0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:53.639 Hyping them up. It was a monstrous bowl of party depravity. 0:17:53.800 --> 0:17:57.160 When I say, I was sickened. When I say, I 0:17:56.680 --> 0:18:01.000 shook my head. And when I said, these are the peers, 0:18:01.480 --> 0:18:03.640 these are the jury of the peers, And it makes 0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:04.160 me wonder. 0:18:04.280 --> 0:18:07.360 As a jury goes home and they look at the television. 0:18:06.960 --> 0:18:11.240 Sets and they see what their decision costs and what 0:18:11.800 --> 0:18:16.160 was on the line, it makes me wonder how can they. 0:18:16.200 --> 0:18:17.440 Sleep at night? 0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:21.960 It was absolute pandemonia in between the jumping up and 0:18:22.000 --> 0:18:26.000 down with the baby oil woman willingly baby oil being 0:18:26.160 --> 0:18:29.040 squirted on them, and everybody laughing and having a time 0:18:29.320 --> 0:18:32.480 like Christmas had just come with Santa and the twelve 0:18:32.560 --> 0:18:36.600 perverted Elves. What happened after that was even more amazing 0:18:36.600 --> 0:18:40.040 because while that was going on, there were little fires 0:18:40.119 --> 0:18:42.960 everywhere of these bands of I don't know if they're 0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:45.959 in cels, if they're idiots, what was going on looking 0:18:46.000 --> 0:18:50.840 for anybody they had ever saw make anti Ditty contests, 0:18:51.040 --> 0:18:55.120 And by anti Diddy, according to Thelm, it is pro justice. 0:18:55.200 --> 0:18:59.000 They were going out their ways to make sure. 0:18:58.840 --> 0:19:00.439 That everybody paid. 0:19:00.680 --> 0:19:03.880 And again I said, this is what that jury costs us, 0:19:04.000 --> 0:19:04.720 and let us know. 0:19:05.080 --> 0:19:06.040 It's sent a message. 0:19:06.119 --> 0:19:09.080 It's okay to be depraved, it's okay to beat women, 0:19:09.240 --> 0:19:11.920 it's okay to do drugs, it's okay to do whatever 0:19:12.160 --> 0:19:16.160 you want. And that jury, that jury, when they gave 0:19:16.200 --> 0:19:19.200 the verdict, signals that again I'm still coming to terms 0:19:19.240 --> 0:19:19.960 with how. 0:19:19.800 --> 0:19:21.479 The jury got to this. 0:19:21.600 --> 0:19:24.200 Thank god, this man was denied bail, Thank god. 0:19:24.400 --> 0:19:27.200 Straight out to Sidney Sunray joining US Crime Stories investigative 0:19:27.200 --> 0:19:29.320 reporter on the case from the very beginning. Break down 0:19:29.359 --> 0:19:30.639 the counts for me, said. 0:19:30.560 --> 0:19:35.440 Nancy, how one is that racketeering, rico conspiracy. Combs was 0:19:35.480 --> 0:19:39.920 found not guilty on count one, Count two, three, four, 0:19:39.960 --> 0:19:44.920 and five are those sex trafficking and transportation to engage 0:19:44.960 --> 0:19:48.560 in prostitution charges. So there was one count each for 0:19:48.720 --> 0:19:52.560 Casey and Jane on both of those charges. So the 0:19:52.680 --> 0:19:56.760 jury found that Combs was liable for both transportation to 0:19:56.840 --> 0:20:00.720 engage in prostitution charges and not guilty see on sex 0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:03.560 trafficking for either Jane or Cassie. 0:20:03.600 --> 0:20:06.760 Straight out to Philip Debate, joining US veteran trial lawyer, 0:20:06.840 --> 0:20:10.199 joining US out of the LA jurisdiction. So Debate, this 0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:14.960 is the breakdown. Count one racketeering not guilty. Count two 0:20:15.280 --> 0:20:19.439 sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion as it relates 0:20:19.440 --> 0:20:22.719 to Cassie Ventira. You know the woman that was beaten 0:20:22.920 --> 0:20:25.040 in that video and dragged back to a freak off 0:20:25.040 --> 0:20:27.199 her the one that had to get plastic surgery on 0:20:27.240 --> 0:20:30.240 her face after Didd he beat her up. That one, 0:20:30.720 --> 0:20:34.320 that's a not guilty. Count three transportation to engage in 0:20:34.359 --> 0:20:39.080 prostitution as it relates to Cassie. Guilty that carries a 0:20:39.119 --> 0:20:42.520 maximum of ten years, and that comes, I believe from 0:20:42.560 --> 0:20:46.400 the sex worker who came in Philip and described Sean 0:20:46.440 --> 0:20:48.880 Combs wearing a burka from the chin up and make 0:20:48.920 --> 0:20:53.680 it from the chin down and had him have sex 0:20:53.760 --> 0:20:58.000 with Cassie on video and directed them that was across 0:20:58.040 --> 0:21:02.639 state lines. So gilty on that count four. Sex trafficking 0:21:03.000 --> 0:21:07.399 by force, fraud, oft coercion as it relates to Jane victim. 0:21:07.440 --> 0:21:08.840 Two not guilty. 0:21:09.040 --> 0:21:13.760 Count five transportation to engage in prostitution as it relates 0:21:13.800 --> 0:21:14.560 to Jane. 0:21:15.280 --> 0:21:15.800 Guilty. 0:21:16.359 --> 0:21:21.440 So we got two guilties, three not guilties, split verdict. 0:21:21.840 --> 0:21:28.360 So there was great jubilation at first when Diddy followers 0:21:28.560 --> 0:21:31.960 heard split. They heard the words not guilty on count 0:21:32.040 --> 0:21:35.840 one and went crazy, What do you think is going 0:21:35.920 --> 0:21:37.480 to happen now, Philip? 0:21:37.720 --> 0:21:39.840 I think he's going to get three to five years 0:21:39.880 --> 0:21:44.680 for the transportation for prostitution. He has no criminal record whatsoever. 0:21:45.000 --> 0:21:48.880 He was exonerated at the RICO charge. He was exonerated 0:21:49.000 --> 0:21:52.440 of the basically the sex trafficking charges, which really were 0:21:52.480 --> 0:21:55.000 the top counts, and the jury really cut him a 0:21:55.040 --> 0:21:59.560 brake on those charges. The max or transportation is ten years. 0:21:59.560 --> 0:22:04.680 But given the fact that he really has no criminal convictions, I'm. 0:22:04.520 --> 0:22:07.080 Telling you he really could ideally. 0:22:06.640 --> 0:22:10.199 Be a candidate four prof. When the court denied his 0:22:10.359 --> 0:22:14.200 request for bail, he was really telegraphing to John Ditty 0:22:14.400 --> 0:22:17.320 defense counsel and the world that he will be getting 0:22:17.400 --> 0:22:19.440 prison time. There's no question, right. 0:22:20.040 --> 0:22:21.600 Another thing debate. Let's get real. 0:22:22.440 --> 0:22:27.680 It's really rare in federal and state court that once 0:22:27.760 --> 0:22:31.720 you're convicted and a jury convicts you on a violent offence, 0:22:32.160 --> 0:22:36.320 that you get an appeal bond, which means, okay, judge, 0:22:36.359 --> 0:22:39.160 I know he just got convicted, but could you please 0:22:39.240 --> 0:22:42.520
