1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:01,320
Speaker 1: All right, here we go, guys.

2
00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 2: According to US Weekly, Cassie Ventura's mother, Regina Ventura, testified

3
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,480
Speaker 2: at the Ditty trial earlier this week. Miss Regina said

4
00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 2: that she took out a twenty thousand dollars home equity

5
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:16,439
Speaker 2: loan to pay Ditty for his blackmail demand after he

6
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 2: threatened to release sexually explicit videos of Cassie when she

7
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 2: began dating kid Cuddy back in twenty eleven, but he

8
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 2: returned the money four to five days later. She said,

9
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 2: I was physically sick, That's what she told the US attorney.

10
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,199
Speaker 2: I did not understand it. The sex tape threw me.

11
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,559
Speaker 2: He was trying to hurt my daughter. Cassie told her

12
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 2: mother about Ditty's alleged abuse for the first time in

13
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:44,240
Speaker 2: December of twenty eleven, and Regina said that she took

14
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 2: pictures of her injuries because she wanted to establish a record.

15
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 2: Now those pictures were shown to the jury. She also

16
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 2: noted that she once called the police on Ditty after

17
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 2: Cassie told her that Ditty had taken her phone. Miss

18
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 2: Regina said she had a quote bitter argument outside her

19
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 2: daughter's apartment building as she tried to get the phone

20
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 2: back from Ditty while Cassie was inside the apartment. She says,

21
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 2: I was trying to hit him. That's what the mother says.

22
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 2: She was trying to hit Ditty, but I wasn't successful,

23
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 2: claiming that Diddy eventually gave the phone back but took

24
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,039
Speaker 2: Cassie's car as he left. Diddy's defense team declined to

25
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 2: cross examine Regina Ventura, and that was a smart move

26
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,040
Speaker 2: on their part, Steve.

27
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,760
Speaker 3: Well, No, no, they don't want none of that smoke. No,

28
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 3: because there's nothing that you can cross on that's gonna

29
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 3: make it work. Because she was such a credible witness.

30
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 3: You can't punch no holes in her story. Let me

31
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 3: give you an example. But I think this is just

32
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 3: me right. If she testified that she took out a

33
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 3: home equity loan to send twenty thousand dollars to keep

34
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 3: him from releasing a sex tape, that's extortion in blackmail.

35
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 3: That's where we started to slide into the rico, the

36
00:01:59,040 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 3: actual charge.

37
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 4: Yeah.

38
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 3: See now that what you're doing right here, all this

39
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 3: other stuff was just to show you he was a

40
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 3: bad person.

41
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, character, his character, and.

42
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 3: Now when stuff like this come out, Now, why would

43
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,639
Speaker 3: they cross examine this woman to get her to say

44
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,839
Speaker 3: what you wouldn't I try to protect my baby from

45
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 3: what he was doing. They don't need to hear that twice.

46
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 3: They want to let her get off this stand and

47
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 3: hope the jury forget this.

48
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 1: Oh his defense team.

49
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 3: Man, you can't cross examine nobody. Mama right right?

50
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: No, you know what you're look yeah.

51
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 3: Frug You get a mama up on that stand on

52
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,919
Speaker 3: behalf of a child, and it's just a tear jerk moment.

53
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 3: Because and plus, like I said before, if any of

54
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 3: these jurors are parents, and if any of these jurors

55
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 3: have daughters, we have a problem. The other problem is

56
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,079
Speaker 3: who they gonna call, you know, when it's day turned

57
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 3: the defense You who they're gonna call.

58
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: Justify us? Do you think he's to take the stand?

59
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:19,239
Speaker 4: Boys, we're gonna have to turn the camera that we got.

60
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: To see that. I'm flying in for that.

61
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get it in the night before and have

62
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 3: a tent outside the courthouse like I'm trying to buy

63
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 3: the new Nikes.

64
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 1: Given walk up music too. Then then then we ain't.

65
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 2: Going nowhere bad boys, We got to see it. Goodness,

66
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 2: So you think, okay, like most defense witnesses or.

67
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 3: It would do him brother the cross examination under oath,

68
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 3: because all he got to do is tell two lies,

69
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 3: and now perjury gets Chad. Perjury in a federal case,

70
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 3: you might as well just shot somebody. And they only

71
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 3: gonna ask him questions that they know the answer to.

72
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.

73
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,600
