[Music]

2
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:26,460
An assault in a hotel lobby, and the raids on Sean Combs mansions in New York and Miami played out in front of millions on National TV and gave the world an inside look into the truth of Ditty.

3
00:00:26,460 --> 00:00:30,940
[Music]

4
00:00:30,940 --> 00:00:41,640
The video in particular, showing Cassie, it is longtime girlfriend being yanked by the hair, ragged all to the floor and soccer kicked.

5
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:53,380
It's become the irrefutable piece of evidence of not only a harsh reality of abuse, but the true monster that rests inside of Sean Combs.

6
00:00:53,380 --> 00:01:00,480
[Music]

7
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:18,600
The raids produced many key items of evidence, including over 1,000 bottles of baby oil, opening America's eyes into the elite, media mogul's sexual deviance and substantiating the claims of over 100 alleged victims.

00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:26,040
[Music]

9
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:35,180
Welcome to Exposed, scandalous files of the elite, the Ditty saga, Episode 11, The Leaks Defense.

10
00:01:35,180 --> 00:01:50,360
[Music]

11
00:01:50,360 --> 00:02:03,760
Hey everyone and welcome back to Exposed, scandalous files of the elite, I'm your host Jim Chapman, and we are continuing the Ditty saga series with this 11th episode.

12
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:19,860
And last time that I left you, I told you about the pending 120+ lawsuit soon to be filed on Sean Combs, and while many of us are awaiting that information, much has transpired.

13
00:02:19,860 --> 00:02:49,320
Ditty had a preliminary hearing just a few days ago, and just prior to that, his defense dropped a little bombshell of their own filing a motion for what is known as an evidentiary hearing and claiming major leaks from DHS, that's the Department of Homeland Security, which they claim has tainted a possible jury poll, beyond repair making it impossible for poor Ditty.

14
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,180
To get a fair trial.

15
00:02:52,180 --> 00:02:56,980
So we're going to get into that document, which I do have in front of me.

16
00:02:56,980 --> 00:03:05,180
But, before we do, I want to give a few shout outs to our newest Patreon Global Celebrities out there.

17
00:03:05,180 --> 00:03:09,900
We're going to start with Miss Vicki Crawley from the UK.

18
00:03:09,900 --> 00:03:12,460
Shout out to the UK.

19
00:03:12,460 --> 00:03:21,400
I just posted on Facebook, we're getting a bunch of listeners from all over the world, y'all, over 50 countries now.

20
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:28,140
Listen to exposed scandalous files of the elite, and I love to see that.

21
00:03:28,140 --> 00:03:30,300
So welcome Miss Vicki.

22
00:03:30,300 --> 00:03:33,420
Next we have Samantha Lamar.

23
00:03:33,420 --> 00:03:37,900
She is from Gideon, Missouri, and y'all, I found it interesting.

24
00:03:37,900 --> 00:03:42,140
That Gideon, Missouri has a very small population.

25
00:03:42,140 --> 00:03:46,500
They only have 745 people in that town.

26
00:03:46,500 --> 00:03:51,340
And anybody who knows me, parsley knows I love those small towns.

27
00:03:51,340 --> 00:03:54,980
Thank you for joining our Global Celebrity team.

28
00:03:54,980 --> 00:03:58,860
And lastly today, we have Miss Mandy Tomplay.

29
00:03:58,860 --> 00:04:03,660
And Miss Mandy Tomplay is all the way from Port Vincent, Louisiana.

30
00:04:03,660 --> 00:04:06,900
And y'all, I know Port Vincent very well.

31
00:04:06,900 --> 00:04:11,820
It's only about 15 minutes from where I record at my studio.

32
00:04:11,820 --> 00:04:16,580
It sits right on the picturesque, if you will, Amy River.

33
00:04:16,580 --> 00:04:24,180
I want to welcome Miss Mandy Tomplay to the Global Celebrity Tier on our Patreon.

34
00:04:24,180 --> 00:04:30,300
And look, Miss Mandy, if you ever in the area, the denim springs area, and you pass by my studio,

35
00:04:30,300 --> 00:04:34,180
and you see my vehicle out there, and knock on that door.

36
00:04:34,180 --> 00:04:39,300
And I'll give you something special just from exposed, scandalous files of the elite.

37
00:04:39,300 --> 00:04:45,260
So let's get into this motion file by the defense team for Ditty.

38
00:04:45,260 --> 00:04:51,020
And the best way to start is to explain what an evidentiary hearing is.

39
00:04:51,020 --> 00:04:54,340
So an evidentiary hearing, it's like a minitrile.

40
00:04:54,340 --> 00:05:01,020
It requires a judge to hear witness testimony in the prosecution in this case will be required

41
00:05:01,020 --> 00:05:08,900
to turn over evidence related to the issues that the defense is bringing up in this particular

42
00:05:08,900 --> 00:05:09,900
matter.

43
00:05:09,900 --> 00:05:15,540
So Ditty's defense team, they're wanting to find out who has leaked what to the media.

44
00:05:15,540 --> 00:05:19,780
People like me got a hell of a lot of information is what they're thinking.

45
00:05:19,780 --> 00:05:24,500
And they want to use that to prove that Ditty can't get a fair trial.

46
00:05:24,500 --> 00:05:27,300
So let's get into the document.

47
00:05:27,300 --> 00:05:33,500
And it reads, "Defended Sean Combs moves for four forms of relief related to what the

48
00:05:33,500 --> 00:05:39,340
defense believes was a series of unlawful government leaks, which have led to damaging

49
00:05:39,340 --> 00:05:46,140
highly prejudicial, pretrial publicity that can only taint the jury pool and deprive Mr.

50
00:05:46,140 --> 00:05:49,140
Combs of his right to a fair trial."

51
00:05:49,140 --> 00:05:55,180
One, an evidentiary hearing to examine government misconduct and connection with the leaks.

52
00:05:55,180 --> 00:06:01,060
Two, discovery of emails, documents and records in the possession of the government, including

53
00:06:01,060 --> 00:06:04,060
DHS related to the leaks.

54
00:06:04,060 --> 00:06:10,740
Three, a gag order prohibiting government personnel from disclosing any evidence or investigated

55
00:06:10,740 --> 00:06:16,340
material related to this case to any member of the media and force suppression of any

56
00:06:16,340 --> 00:06:22,340
evidence leaked by the government employees in violation of criminal procedure.

57
00:06:22,340 --> 00:06:28,340
It goes on to say the government's scheme is to undermine Mr. Combs right to a fair proceeding

58
00:06:28,340 --> 00:06:31,100
and it has several methods and means.

59
00:06:31,100 --> 00:06:36,820
First, there's been a steady stream of false and prejudicial statements made by DHS agents

60
00:06:36,820 --> 00:06:40,660
to various press outlets over the last seven months.

61
00:06:40,660 --> 00:06:47,380
Second, the agents engaged in a particularly brutal and public search of Mr. Combs homes,

62
00:06:47,380 --> 00:06:53,740
during which they handcuffed Mr. Combs innocent sons and then marched them before a news helicopter

63
00:06:53,740 --> 00:06:55,260
in the press.

64
00:06:55,260 --> 00:07:00,660
This was an apparent effort to convey that they had overwhelming evidence against Mr. Combs,

65
00:07:00,660 --> 00:07:06,060
justifying to the public and brutal treatment of even his children who were handcuffed and

66
00:07:06,060 --> 00:07:09,460
mishandled by federal agents armed with assault rifles.

67
00:07:09,460 --> 00:07:13,860
Third, government employees have repeatedly leaked grand jury information and materials

68
00:07:13,860 --> 00:07:19,820
to the press to raise public hostility against Mr. Combs in advance of the trial.

69
00:07:19,820 --> 00:07:27,460
The most egregious example of this is a leak to CNN of a 2016 videotape from the Intercontinental

70
00:07:27,460 --> 00:07:29,140
Hotel in Los Angeles.

71
00:07:29,140 --> 00:07:30,820
He's told my guessy y'all.

72
00:07:30,820 --> 00:07:37,500
Was but one of a long and documented history of leaks and false statements made with one purpose

73
00:07:37,500 --> 00:07:42,060
to savage Mr. Combs reputation prior to trial.

74
00:07:42,060 --> 00:07:47,460
While the government's misconduct in this case is particularly egregious, it is unfortunately

75
00:07:47,460 --> 00:07:53,060
part of a trend in this district, the government has learned it can strategically leak information

76
00:07:53,060 --> 00:07:54,660
with impunity.

77
00:07:54,660 --> 00:08:00,620
The court should exercise its authority to prohibit these underhanded tactics, which severely

78
00:08:00,620 --> 00:08:04,860
undermine a criminal defendant's right to a fair trial.

79
00:08:04,860 --> 00:08:09,700
At the outset, the defense wants to be clear with the court as to what our theory is and

80
00:08:09,700 --> 00:08:11,180
what it is not.

81
00:08:11,180 --> 00:08:15,340
We do not contend that the leaks were orchestrated by the US attorney's office.

82
00:08:15,340 --> 00:08:17,380
Yeah, they don't want to mess with them.

83
00:08:17,380 --> 00:08:22,180
Rather, we contend that the false media statements and the grand jury leaks complained

84
00:08:22,180 --> 00:08:26,380
of below were planned and executed by DHS.

85
00:08:26,380 --> 00:08:31,380
As the parties develop more information in this regard, the court will see that the defense

86
00:08:31,380 --> 00:08:37,220
repeatedly contacted the prosecutors and stated in substance that their agents were leaking

87
00:08:37,220 --> 00:08:39,140
information to the press.

88
00:08:39,140 --> 00:08:45,420
Yet, regardless of what if any action the US attorney's office took, the leaks continued

89
00:08:45,420 --> 00:08:47,820
even until after the arrest.

90
00:08:47,820 --> 00:08:53,860
The reason a hearing is needed is to determine exactly what the DHS did and did not do with

91
00:08:53,860 --> 00:08:59,580
regard to these leaks and what the US attorney's office did and did not do to stop them.

92
00:08:59,580 --> 00:09:04,620
The evidence of the government misconduct is clear enough already that this court is justified

93
00:09:04,620 --> 00:09:08,420
in using its authority to craft appropriate remedies.

94
00:09:08,420 --> 00:09:13,700
Mr. Cones, who requests the court order discovery and evidentiary hearing to investigate the

95
00:09:13,700 --> 00:09:15,580
government's misconduct.

96
00:09:15,580 --> 00:09:22,180
The abuse here is clear, but without a hearing it will remain unknown how far or where the

97
00:09:22,180 --> 00:09:23,940
abuse reached.

98
00:09:23,940 --> 00:09:26,300
A hearing is thus necessary.

99
00:09:26,300 --> 00:09:30,820
In addition, if the hearing demonstrates that the violation of the grand jury's secrecy

100
00:09:30,820 --> 00:09:36,460
was intentional, as we expect it will be, the court should order the suppression of

101
00:09:36,460 --> 00:09:43,380
the videotap and any other illegally disclosed evidence as well as other potential sanctions.

102
00:09:43,380 --> 00:09:47,740
And then it goes into the background and it says the full extent of the government's

103
00:09:47,740 --> 00:09:52,740
misconduct cannot yet be known, but what is known is already enough.

104
00:09:52,740 --> 00:09:58,020
The government's tactics and the searches, its constant stream of statements to the press

105
00:09:58,020 --> 00:10:04,020
and the leak of the hotel video demonstrates its intent to violate grand jury.

106
00:10:04,020 --> 00:10:10,700
The rules and prejudice Mr. Cones prior to trial and it lists examples of this.

107
00:10:10,700 --> 00:10:12,500
Number one, the searches.

108
00:10:12,500 --> 00:10:16,820
The government's campaign to prejudice Mr. Cones and the press commence with the searches

109
00:10:16,820 --> 00:10:19,740
on March 25th of 2024.

110
00:10:19,740 --> 00:10:24,340
Notably, the searches could have been avoided altogether and no cost of the government prior

111
00:10:24,340 --> 00:10:26,140
to the searches.

112
00:10:26,140 --> 00:10:31,820
Counselor Mr. Cones had contacted the government twice to offer cooperation.

113
00:10:31,820 --> 00:10:37,060
Counselors thus knew they could serve a subpoena on council for the phone's devices and other

114
00:10:37,060 --> 00:10:38,540
items they sought.

115
00:10:38,540 --> 00:10:43,580
Indeed, after the searches had been conducted, the prosecutors did exactly this, serving

116
00:10:43,580 --> 00:10:48,940
two subpoenas on the undersigned, seeking the identical item sought in the search warns.

117
00:10:48,940 --> 00:10:53,940
However, the prosecutors ignored defense council's invitation to discuss the case so they

118
00:10:53,940 --> 00:10:58,660
can engage in one of the more brutal and public searches in recent memory.

119
00:10:58,660 --> 00:11:01,580
They actually used the term "burdle."

120
00:11:01,580 --> 00:11:04,420
Now let me stop right here and say this.

121
00:11:04,420 --> 00:11:13,660
It would kind of defeat the purpose if you said, "Okay, we need all your cell phones and

122
00:11:13,660 --> 00:11:18,700
all your videotapes that you have in your house and we're going to trust you to bring

123
00:11:18,700 --> 00:11:19,700
us all that."

124
00:11:19,700 --> 00:11:21,060
That's stupid.

125
00:11:21,060 --> 00:11:26,060
They're going to search your house when they want to search it, when you don't know

126
00:11:26,060 --> 00:11:29,900
they're going to search it so you can't hide evidence.

127
00:11:29,900 --> 00:11:35,220
And the defense case here is, "Hey, we told them twice, we'll give you anything you need."

128
00:11:35,220 --> 00:11:36,220
Really?

129
00:11:36,220 --> 00:11:40,700
You think they would have brought a thousand bottles of baby oil up there?

130
00:11:40,700 --> 00:11:42,020
Hell no.

131
00:11:42,020 --> 00:11:43,500
I move on.

132
00:11:43,500 --> 00:11:52,340
At about 12.40 pm on March 25, 2024, over 100 armed federal agents massed three locations,

133
00:11:52,340 --> 00:11:58,620
over 50 agents were at a residence at two-star island in Miami, Florida, over 50 more

134
00:11:58,620 --> 00:12:04,060
were at Mr. Combs' property in Los Angeles and over 30 more were prepared to stop in search

135
00:12:04,060 --> 00:12:05,060
and airplane.

136
00:12:05,060 --> 00:12:09,300
Mr. Combs and his family were taking to a spring break vacation.

137
00:12:09,300 --> 00:12:14,180
These searches were specifically designed to be public spectacles of brutality and were

138
00:12:14,180 --> 00:12:18,180
not primarily focus merely on acquiring potential evidence.

139
00:12:18,180 --> 00:12:24,460
First, the searches were carried out in the middle of the day to optimize media exposure.

140
00:12:24,460 --> 00:12:28,780
Typically, searches are conducted in the quiet early mornings.

141
00:12:28,780 --> 00:12:33,420
In this case, however, they were conducted in the middle of the day, both in Los Angeles

142
00:12:33,420 --> 00:12:38,220
and Florida so that the media could cover them before a large audience.

143
00:12:38,220 --> 00:12:40,540
Well, I would submit to you.

144
00:12:40,540 --> 00:12:44,100
Maybe that's when he would least expect it, but I'll move on.

145
00:12:44,100 --> 00:12:48,940
Second, the media was present at the inception of the Los Angeles search.

146
00:12:48,940 --> 00:12:54,420
In fact, one media outlet boasted on air that it was on site and even filming.

147
00:12:54,420 --> 00:13:00,300
Even before the crime scene tape was up, it was thus clear the DHS alerted the media prior

148
00:13:00,300 --> 00:13:06,180
to the search in order to maximize exposure and I'll submit to you on that statement that

149
00:13:06,180 --> 00:13:14,140
by this time, I personally had, I think I was an episode four or five of the Diddy saga.

150
00:13:14,140 --> 00:13:15,740
I've been reporting this.

151
00:13:15,740 --> 00:13:20,740
I'm sure they had people stationed up, you know, outside of his house.

152
00:13:20,740 --> 00:13:21,980
Constantly.

153
00:13:21,980 --> 00:13:22,980
They knew it was coming.

154
00:13:22,980 --> 00:13:23,980
Everybody knew it was coming.

155
00:13:23,980 --> 00:13:31,460
Get back and listen to episodes three and four where I'm saying any day now, Diddy's houses

156
00:13:31,460 --> 00:13:32,900
are going to get searched.

157
00:13:32,900 --> 00:13:33,980
This was no surprise.

158
00:13:33,980 --> 00:13:40,100
Third, the agents arrived in military armored style vehicles with scores of heavily armed

159
00:13:40,100 --> 00:13:42,220
agents in full combat gear.

160
00:13:42,220 --> 00:13:47,700
One would think they were attempting something much larger than to see some phones and computers.

161
00:13:47,700 --> 00:13:50,420
This show of force had no legitimate purpose.

162
00:13:50,420 --> 00:13:55,140
It was merely an attempt to garner further press attention, sensationalize the case and

163
00:13:55,140 --> 00:13:57,220
portray Mr. Combs as dangerous.

164
00:13:57,220 --> 00:14:03,500
The show of force was particularly egregious given the authorities new Mr. Combs children

165
00:14:03,500 --> 00:14:08,620
who are innocent and who would have never been the target of this investigation were likely

166
00:14:08,620 --> 00:14:10,420
to be present.

167
00:14:10,420 --> 00:14:19,420
Not only common I can make on that is Mr. Combs is in fact dangerous and in upcoming episodes

168
00:14:19,420 --> 00:14:23,700
I'll tell you why, but I totally get it.

169
00:14:23,700 --> 00:14:25,220
And you are trying to intimidate.

170
00:14:25,220 --> 00:14:28,100
They don't know who they're going to run into there.

171
00:14:28,100 --> 00:14:32,820
You're at a billionaire's house conducting a search warrant who is known to have many body

172
00:14:32,820 --> 00:14:33,820
guards.

173
00:14:33,820 --> 00:14:35,420
So I'll leave it there.

174
00:14:35,420 --> 00:14:40,260
Fourth, the agents used excessive force against Mr. Combs children who were at home doing

175
00:14:40,260 --> 00:14:41,540
nothing wrong.

176
00:14:41,540 --> 00:14:46,060
One agent held a semi-automatic rifle to the head of Christian Combs.

177
00:14:46,060 --> 00:14:51,220
Even though he was visibly complying with the agent's demands, another agent had a semi-automatic

178
00:14:51,220 --> 00:14:56,060
rifle with a laser sight trained in the orange dot visible in the middle of the chest of

179
00:14:56,060 --> 00:14:57,620
Justin Combs.

180
00:14:57,620 --> 00:15:01,020
Like his brother, Justin was also complying.

181
00:15:01,020 --> 00:15:06,060
The agents then handcuffed Christian and Justin inside the house and marched them to the

182
00:15:06,060 --> 00:15:12,740
front yard of the house, wear newspapers and a helicopter all invited by authorities or

183
00:15:12,740 --> 00:15:16,180
waiting to get salacious footage.

184
00:15:16,180 --> 00:15:20,740
After purplocking these two completely innocent young men and displaying them handcuffs and

185
00:15:20,740 --> 00:15:25,500
under restraint to the media, the agents walked them back in the house still in handcuffs and

186
00:15:25,500 --> 00:15:26,740
released them.

187
00:15:26,740 --> 00:15:32,660
These tactics had no possible purpose other than the garner sensational medical coverage.

188
00:15:32,660 --> 00:15:33,660
It worked.

189
00:15:33,660 --> 00:15:37,260
Let me just say this on that.

190
00:15:37,260 --> 00:15:38,460
You're right it worked.

191
00:15:38,460 --> 00:15:43,860
The issue I have with what they're saying here relative to the tactical vehicles and the

192
00:15:43,860 --> 00:15:51,260
guys being dressed up in basically SWAT gear number one is an intimidation tactic.

193
00:15:51,260 --> 00:15:53,020
That's all it is.

194
00:15:53,020 --> 00:15:55,700
They don't want any problems.

195
00:15:55,700 --> 00:15:59,060
And so in effect, they want to scare you a little bit.

196
00:15:59,060 --> 00:16:05,940
I have watched that footage and they went overboard on pointing the red dots at the kids and stuff

197
00:16:05,940 --> 00:16:06,940
and they're not kid.

198
00:16:06,940 --> 00:16:14,620
Look, one of them is in his 20s, but they probably went a little far on that if I'm being fair.

199
00:16:14,620 --> 00:16:20,980
However, the fact they showed up in armored vehicles and in tactical gear, that's an intimidation

200
00:16:20,980 --> 00:16:26,380
tactic that is used in every raid, which is essentially what this was.

201
00:16:26,380 --> 00:16:27,420
They're calling a search warrant.

202
00:16:27,420 --> 00:16:28,420
This was a raid.

203
00:16:28,420 --> 00:16:33,140
Then they move on and they talk about statements made to the press and they say when the searches

204
00:16:33,140 --> 00:16:38,340
concluded the public relations campaign by the agents moved into high gear, there were

205
00:16:38,340 --> 00:16:44,060
scores of public statements made by the agents only a small sampling of which will be included

206
00:16:44,060 --> 00:16:51,660
here on March 25th of 2024 agents and a specksman from Homeland Security investigations confirmed

207
00:16:51,660 --> 00:16:56,260
that the government was conducting an ongoing sex trafficking investigation.

208
00:16:56,260 --> 00:17:01,620
That day, a source further disclosed to the press that four Jane Dows and one John Dows

209
00:17:01,620 --> 00:17:06,340
had already sat for interviews with the Southern District of New York investigators for

210
00:17:06,340 --> 00:17:10,300
a probe related to alleged sex, trafficking and racketeering.

211
00:17:10,300 --> 00:17:15,500
The next day, on March 26, law enforcement sources told the New York Post that agents

212
00:17:15,500 --> 00:17:20,620
wanted to seize the 54-year-olds' funds and computers and that his properties in New

213
00:17:20,620 --> 00:17:23,460
York and Chicago will be next.

214
00:17:23,460 --> 00:17:28,380
This further reported that the searches were based on a warrant issued by New York.

215
00:17:28,380 --> 00:17:34,140
On March 27th, two days after the searches of Mr. Come's residences, an agent specifically

216
00:17:34,140 --> 00:17:40,060
identified as working for DHS made public statements to among other media of the New York

217
00:17:40,060 --> 00:17:44,900
Post that said, "We believe there's a disturbing history of sex trafficking.

218
00:17:44,900 --> 00:17:49,580
We are responding to concrete detailed allegations and this is not random.

219
00:17:49,580 --> 00:17:52,060
We did not choose his name out of a hat."

220
00:17:52,060 --> 00:17:54,900
We had allegations that were following up on.

221
00:17:54,900 --> 00:17:59,660
The source identified as an officer with the Department of Homeland Security went on

222
00:17:59,660 --> 00:18:05,100
to tell the press, "You have to understand that we didn't just decide on a whim to search

223
00:18:05,100 --> 00:18:06,420
his homes."

224
00:18:06,420 --> 00:18:10,660
A federal judge had to sign off, "This isn't a witch hunt."

225
00:18:10,660 --> 00:18:15,740
The DHS operative further shared, "That's a funny thing about victims.

226
00:18:15,740 --> 00:18:20,780
They may be reluctant to speak at first, but when they start talking, they talk.

227
00:18:20,780 --> 00:18:21,780
They talk a lot.

228
00:18:21,780 --> 00:18:26,500
We're giving a lot of cooperation from a lot of people who want to see him brought to

229
00:18:26,500 --> 00:18:27,700
justice."

230
00:18:27,700 --> 00:18:32,580
The New York Post further described the source of these quotes as a Miami-based officer who

231
00:18:32,580 --> 00:18:38,180
spoke under the condition of "animity" and confirmed Mr. Come's investigation.

232
00:18:38,180 --> 00:18:39,900
Let me take that point real quick.

233
00:18:39,900 --> 00:18:42,340
Okay, he's telling the facts.

234
00:18:42,340 --> 00:18:49,700
The public has a right to know that this is a fine line in the law because there is a

235
00:18:49,700 --> 00:18:53,380
such a thing as the public's right to know.

236
00:18:53,380 --> 00:18:57,780
Everything that these people discuss here, this is why this is all bullshit.

237
00:18:57,780 --> 00:19:07,140
By the time that this DHS leaker came out and was leaking this information, allegedly,

238
00:19:07,140 --> 00:19:09,580
they had already had 50 lawsuits.

239
00:19:09,580 --> 00:19:12,380
I covered them all for y'all.

240
00:19:12,380 --> 00:19:14,740
All of this was known.

241
00:19:14,740 --> 00:19:22,940
His sex trafficking lawsuits and his shit beating out of Cassie lawsuits and his raping of

242
00:19:22,940 --> 00:19:24,580
all these people lawsuits.

243
00:19:24,580 --> 00:19:25,740
I covered all that.

244
00:19:25,740 --> 00:19:27,900
All that was known.

245
00:19:27,900 --> 00:19:31,980
Everything that they're being accused of leaking so far already told you.

246
00:19:31,980 --> 00:19:37,700
And let me go back real quick and just say on the prior argument that they were making,

247
00:19:37,700 --> 00:19:42,140
regarding marching his sons out and doing the perp-walk.

248
00:19:42,140 --> 00:19:44,100
I submit to you this.

249
00:19:44,100 --> 00:19:46,420
That was a message to Diddy.

250
00:19:46,420 --> 00:19:50,420
They don't care about the media seeing that, but they know one thing.

251
00:19:50,420 --> 00:19:55,740
If the media reports it, it's going to get back to Diddy and they were trying to draw Diddy

252
00:19:55,740 --> 00:20:03,020
out of the shadows and say, hey, you even man up and come in here and face this shit or

253
00:20:03,020 --> 00:20:08,860
we're going to harass everybody around you until you do it because this is all your fault.

254
00:20:08,860 --> 00:20:11,940
At the end of the day, y'all don't forget this.

255
00:20:11,940 --> 00:20:15,820
Something that has happened that they're bitching about around here is because of that some

256
00:20:15,820 --> 00:20:18,260
bitch doing what he did.

257
00:20:18,260 --> 00:20:19,660
This is his doing.

258
00:20:19,660 --> 00:20:21,340
But we'll continue on.

259
00:20:21,340 --> 00:20:27,440
Today's later on March 29th, law enforcement sources told ABC News that prosecutors have

260
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:32,460
interviewed a number of Diddy accusers, including those who have filed civil suits.

261
00:20:32,460 --> 00:20:38,340
The next day on March 30th, 2024, a reporter in the New York Post stated to News Nation

262
00:20:38,340 --> 00:20:43,300
that according to Homeland Security sources, the investigation into coms was on the tip

263
00:20:43,300 --> 00:20:47,900
of the iceberg and that nothing was off the table.

264
00:20:47,900 --> 00:20:53,460
On April 2nd of 2024, a media outlet called the source reported that sources close to

265
00:20:53,460 --> 00:20:58,900
the case shared that authorities have requested telecommunication records related to coms.

266
00:20:58,900 --> 00:21:04,460
If other reported the source who requested anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the

267
00:21:04,460 --> 00:21:11,420
matter disclosed that Homeland Security investigators are also keen in obtaining flight records associated

268
00:21:11,420 --> 00:21:12,420
with coms.

269
00:21:12,420 --> 00:21:17,700
These flight records include passenger list and could provide valuable insights into coms,

270
00:21:17,700 --> 00:21:19,420
movements and activities.

271
00:21:19,420 --> 00:21:23,900
And it goes on and says within the first week of the searches, the agents, all of whom were

272
00:21:23,900 --> 00:21:29,460
involved in the ongoing grand jury investigation, informed the press the purported victims have

273
00:21:29,460 --> 00:21:34,700
been interviewed that they had obtained an executed search warrant and that they were obtaining

274
00:21:34,700 --> 00:21:41,340
telecommunications and flight records, presumably with grand jury subpoenas, that their grand

275
00:21:41,340 --> 00:21:46,620
jury investigation was getting a lot of cooperation from a lot of people who wanted to see him brought

276
00:21:46,620 --> 00:21:53,100
to justice and the grand jury investigation into coms was the tip of the iceberg.

277
00:21:53,100 --> 00:21:58,500
In addition, the agent's public statements were solely designed to prejudice the grand

278
00:21:58,500 --> 00:21:59,500
jury and the public.

279
00:21:59,500 --> 00:22:04,980
And it goes on to say between the grand jury leaks in the public statements, the agents

280
00:22:04,980 --> 00:22:10,380
all but insured the grand jury would be tainted as well as the general public from which we

281
00:22:10,380 --> 00:22:12,620
will see selected jury.

282
00:22:12,620 --> 00:22:17,100
These inflammatory and false public statements continue up to the present.

283
00:22:17,100 --> 00:22:22,140
On September 18th of 2024, a Department of Homeland Security agent told the New York

284
00:22:22,140 --> 00:22:28,500
Post that the music mogul had rooms that were clearly dedicated to sex with cameras all

285
00:22:28,500 --> 00:22:29,500
around.

286
00:22:29,500 --> 00:22:35,420
The source was identified as one of the DHS agents who helped raid Mr. Combs Florida

287
00:22:35,420 --> 00:22:41,060
home and further describe video evidence obtained during that investigation.

288
00:22:41,060 --> 00:22:47,220
The agent went on to tell the press, so if you were in the sex parties, you were being recorded

289
00:22:47,220 --> 00:22:52,180
from every possible angle, including angles you would not have known about.

290
00:22:52,180 --> 00:22:57,780
A Homeland Security agent then told the New York Post, "It's my opinion that it's as bad

291
00:22:57,780 --> 00:23:04,380
as Jeffrey Epstein, these women are young, either barely legal or barely illegal."

292
00:23:04,380 --> 00:23:10,140
The indictment alleges a single victim as part of a sex trafficking charge, an adult woman

293
00:23:10,140 --> 00:23:14,220
with whom Mr. Combs had a romantic relationship for 10 years.

294
00:23:14,220 --> 00:23:21,180
The agent to make public statements in the conduct involves barely illegal women in that Mr.

295
00:23:21,180 --> 00:23:28,340
Combs is as bad as Jeffrey Epstein is destructive to Mr. Combs right to a fair trial, particularly

296
00:23:28,340 --> 00:23:33,180
in light of the fact that the only victim in the indictment was an adult throughout the

297
00:23:33,180 --> 00:23:34,180
charged conduct.

298
00:23:34,180 --> 00:23:36,780
Let me say this on that.

299
00:23:36,780 --> 00:23:42,500
He never said anything, and I'm talking about the Homeland Security agent that he's referencing.

300
00:23:42,500 --> 00:23:44,780
He never said anything about the indictment.

301
00:23:44,780 --> 00:23:52,140
He said that there were videos that they seized at the resonance that showed women who were

302
00:23:52,140 --> 00:23:58,420
young, either barely legal or barely illegal.

303
00:23:58,420 --> 00:24:00,180
And it's his opinion.

304
00:24:00,180 --> 00:24:03,580
And he said that in the New York Post, "It's my opinion.

305
00:24:03,580 --> 00:24:06,060
He's as bad as Jeffrey Epstein."

306
00:24:06,060 --> 00:24:08,980
"Hey, everybody's entitled to a opinion."

307
00:24:08,980 --> 00:24:11,060
Did he come, lawyers?

308
00:24:11,060 --> 00:24:12,060
Everybody.

309
00:24:12,060 --> 00:24:13,060
That's not a opinion too.

310
00:24:13,060 --> 00:24:19,940
It's Jim Chapman's opinion on the diddysaga on exposed scandalous files of the elite that

311
00:24:19,940 --> 00:24:21,980
this some bitch is worse.

312
00:24:21,980 --> 00:24:22,980
How about that?

313
00:24:22,980 --> 00:24:24,700
Worse than Jeffrey Epstein.

314
00:24:24,700 --> 00:24:25,700
And that's bad.

315
00:24:25,700 --> 00:24:27,020
We'll move on.

316
00:24:27,020 --> 00:24:30,860
And then move on to the leaked hotel video tape.

317
00:24:30,860 --> 00:24:36,620
In the midst of this seven month campaign to impure Mr. Combs reputation before trial.

318
00:24:36,620 --> 00:24:43,560
On Friday, May 17, 2024, a 2016 video tape for the Intercontinental Hotel in Los Angeles

319
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,780
was leaked to CNN.

320
00:24:45,780 --> 00:24:49,300
By far, the most likely source of the leak is the government.

321
00:24:49,300 --> 00:24:50,940
That is true for several reasons.

322
00:24:50,940 --> 00:24:57,220
First, as set forth on May 17, 2024, federal agents had already engaged in a month-long

323
00:24:57,220 --> 00:25:00,620
campaign of leaking information to the press.

324
00:25:00,620 --> 00:25:06,500
They had demonstrated propensity of embracing contacts at numerous press outlets

325
00:25:06,500 --> 00:25:11,100
and leaking information in order to produce media coverage.

326
00:25:11,100 --> 00:25:15,860
Second, victim one is not likely the source of the leak.

327
00:25:15,860 --> 00:25:18,580
And he's talking about Cassie.

328
00:25:18,580 --> 00:25:23,220
There is no evidence that either she or her lawyers have possession of the tape to the

329
00:25:23,220 --> 00:25:25,180
contrary.

330
00:25:25,180 --> 00:25:29,700
Had either victim one or her lawyer had the tape, the allegations in the civil complaint

331
00:25:29,700 --> 00:25:34,420
would have been entirely different and far more specific than they were.

332
00:25:34,420 --> 00:25:41,300
However, victim one had no motive to a purchase law enforcement, much less leak of video tape.

333
00:25:41,300 --> 00:25:45,780
She had sued Mr. Combs and received a substantial eight-figure settlement.

334
00:25:45,780 --> 00:25:49,620
The government's investigation only began after her lawsuit was settled.

335
00:25:49,620 --> 00:25:56,580
I would say to the lawyers right there on that dumbass comment they just made.

336
00:25:56,580 --> 00:26:02,820
She had every motive to leak the tape because that sucker was making her screw porn stores

337
00:26:02,820 --> 00:26:09,380
all over the country, mail porn stores, and he beat the shit out of her in a hotel, you

338
00:26:09,380 --> 00:26:14,660
know, one occasion that's on video tape and that hotel lobby, but many occasions that

339
00:26:14,660 --> 00:26:15,660
are on video tape.

340
00:26:15,660 --> 00:26:18,820
She had every motive to approach law enforcement.

341
00:26:18,820 --> 00:26:19,820
Come on.

342
00:26:19,820 --> 00:26:23,740
Third and unrelated third party is not a likely source.

343
00:26:23,740 --> 00:26:29,020
If a person not in law enforcement were to leak the video tape to a new source, that person

344
00:26:29,020 --> 00:26:33,100
likely would have sold the tape rather than simply giving it to CNN.

345
00:26:33,100 --> 00:26:34,100
Well you don't know that.

346
00:26:34,100 --> 00:26:39,660
Outlet such as TMZ are now to pay tens of thousands of dollars for such footage, but yet

347
00:26:39,660 --> 00:26:44,580
it was leaked to CNN to show a motive other than financial profit.

348
00:26:44,580 --> 00:26:51,340
It shows a motive to damage Mr. Combs reputation, a motive held by federal agents, and let me

349
00:26:51,340 --> 00:26:52,940
say this.

350
00:26:52,940 --> 00:26:55,100
Yep.

351
00:26:55,100 --> 00:26:57,860
That definitely damages reputation.

352
00:26:57,860 --> 00:27:01,580
Maybe this person's might have what money, maybe this person's might have was they just

353
00:27:01,580 --> 00:27:05,940
wanted to see Mr. Combs get what was coming to him.

354
00:27:05,940 --> 00:27:07,260
You ever think about that?

355
00:27:07,260 --> 00:27:11,180
Fourth, the timing of the leak suggests government involvement.

356
00:27:11,180 --> 00:27:16,980
The tape was leaked one of the few days that the Trump trial was not being held as Baron

357
00:27:16,980 --> 00:27:22,140
Trump Donald Trump's youngest son graduated from high school in Florida that day and his father

358
00:27:22,140 --> 00:27:23,460
was an attendance.

359
00:27:23,460 --> 00:27:28,580
One of the issues in the Trump trial was whether the trial would be states that Trump could

360
00:27:28,580 --> 00:27:30,940
attend his son's graduation.

361
00:27:30,940 --> 00:27:35,700
Eventually the court announced that May 17th would not be a trial day.

362
00:27:35,700 --> 00:27:39,220
This was a fact that would have been known to federal agents and they also would have

363
00:27:39,220 --> 00:27:44,620
known that May 17th was the perfect time as it was a slain news day given the break in

364
00:27:44,620 --> 00:27:46,260
the Trump trial.

365
00:27:46,260 --> 00:27:52,740
Early in the morning of May 17th, a CNN reporter informed a member of Mr. Combs public relations

366
00:27:52,740 --> 00:27:57,020
team that CNN had come across a video from the Intercontinental Hotel.

367
00:27:57,020 --> 00:28:01,540
The reporter went on to say through our reporting we confirmed the video is authentic.

368
00:28:01,540 --> 00:28:07,580
The reporter sought comment and also stated CNN was reaching out to victim ones representatives

369
00:28:07,580 --> 00:28:10,340
which is Cassie for comment.

370
00:28:10,340 --> 00:28:16,660
At 10-22 that morning, Defense Council emailed the prosecution team to say CNN was in possession

371
00:28:16,660 --> 00:28:21,660
of the video tape and that Council was concerned about the circumstances by which it was

372
00:28:21,660 --> 00:28:23,500
provided to CNN.

373
00:28:23,500 --> 00:28:29,220
The government acknowledged Defense Council's email hours after the tape was made public,

374
00:28:29,220 --> 00:28:33,420
but as far as Defense Council is aware to no further action.

375
00:28:33,420 --> 00:28:38,580
Regardless, a few hours after Defense Council made the prosecutors aware that CNN had the

376
00:28:38,580 --> 00:28:44,740
tape, CNN released it to overwhelming internal attention.

377
00:28:44,740 --> 00:28:45,740
You know what?

378
00:28:45,740 --> 00:28:48,220
It's the truth.

379
00:28:48,220 --> 00:28:52,700
I'm releasing that tape was the right thing today so people could see what they're dealing

380
00:28:52,700 --> 00:28:53,700
with.

381
00:28:53,700 --> 00:28:58,860
The video tape was leaked to CNN for one reason alone to mortally wound the reputation and

382
00:28:58,860 --> 00:29:00,860
prospect of Sean Combs.

383
00:29:00,860 --> 00:29:06,780
I'm going to stop there and I'm just going to say how about Sean Combs take some responsibility.

384
00:29:06,780 --> 00:29:09,980
Had he not done that, a video tape wouldn't exist.

385
00:29:09,980 --> 00:29:15,740
And it moves on and says Sean Combs successfully defending himself against these allegations

386
00:29:15,740 --> 00:29:21,540
rather than using the video tape as trial evidence alongside other evidence that gives it context

387
00:29:21,540 --> 00:29:22,540
and meaning.

388
00:29:22,540 --> 00:29:25,420
I don't know what context you could put into that tape.

389
00:29:25,420 --> 00:29:30,820
The agents misused it in the most prejudicial and damaging way possible.

390
00:29:30,820 --> 00:29:38,500
The government knew what it had, a frankly deplorable tape recording of Sean Combs and a towel,

391
00:29:38,500 --> 00:29:43,580
hitting, kicking and dragging a woman in full view of a camera in the hallway of a hotel.

392
00:29:43,580 --> 00:29:45,660
Well, at least you admitted.

393
00:29:45,660 --> 00:29:50,620
Lawyers for ditty combs, at least you admit that they knew what they had.

394
00:29:50,620 --> 00:29:51,620
That's right.

395
00:29:51,620 --> 00:29:53,620
You know what they had?

396
00:29:53,620 --> 00:29:54,620
Evidence.

397
00:29:54,620 --> 00:29:57,460
They had evidence.

398
00:29:57,460 --> 00:29:58,460
Proof.

399
00:29:58,460 --> 00:30:00,220
Irrefeutable.

400
00:30:00,220 --> 00:30:05,540
Proof of this monster.

401
00:30:05,540 --> 00:30:07,140
I continue on.

402
00:30:07,140 --> 00:30:12,020
The potential problem for the government is that if an agent provided the video tape to

403
00:30:12,020 --> 00:30:16,020
CNN, this would be a violation of grand jury secrecy.

404
00:30:16,020 --> 00:30:21,180
This is, among other things, what the hearing will determine because it is reasonable to believe

405
00:30:21,180 --> 00:30:25,700
that this was obtained in connection with a grand jury investigation that it was intentionally

406
00:30:25,700 --> 00:30:30,460
given to CNN to be released to the world and that there was a strong possibility the person

407
00:30:30,460 --> 00:30:35,140
providing it was a federal agent involved in the investigation.

408
00:30:35,140 --> 00:30:40,140
The remedy for this conduct should be full suppression of the video tape the government

409
00:30:40,140 --> 00:30:41,140
leaked.

410
00:30:41,140 --> 00:30:43,660
What they're saying and all that.

411
00:30:43,660 --> 00:30:47,620
And this is the most despicable part of all.

412
00:30:47,620 --> 00:30:55,900
We want this video tape suppressed and not able to show to the jury because we believe

413
00:30:55,900 --> 00:31:00,300
that the only reason that video tape is out there is because the government released

414
00:31:00,300 --> 00:31:01,300
it.

415
00:31:01,300 --> 00:31:08,180
Lastly, it covers requested relief and it says based on the foregoing, Mr. Combs request

416
00:31:08,180 --> 00:31:09,660
the following relief.

417
00:31:09,660 --> 00:31:15,620
This court should order an evidentiary hearing to investigate the misconduct detailed above

418
00:31:15,620 --> 00:31:19,620
as well as other misconduct that may yet come to light.

419
00:31:19,620 --> 00:31:24,420
Here the defense has shown evidence that a hearing should be held because it is clear

420
00:31:24,420 --> 00:31:29,980
agents involved in this investigation spoke to the press about matters relating to and

421
00:31:29,980 --> 00:31:33,700
affecting the grand jury and leaked evidence.

422
00:31:33,700 --> 00:31:40,660
The agents here were specifically identified in press accounts as HSI and DHS operatives

423
00:31:40,660 --> 00:31:46,980
and specifically as Miami based officers who helped Ray Mr. Combs floor to home.

424
00:31:46,980 --> 00:31:53,540
Second, in advance of that hearing the court should order relevant discovery from the government.

425
00:31:53,540 --> 00:31:58,260
This should include any emails or text messages by government attorneys or law enforcement

426
00:31:58,260 --> 00:32:03,660
agents regarding these and other leaks of information about the investigation or prosecution

427
00:32:03,660 --> 00:32:10,220
of this case and third, this court should immediately enter a order for bidding government

428
00:32:10,220 --> 00:32:15,860
attorneys and agents involved in the case from leaking any further information to the media.

429
00:32:15,860 --> 00:32:22,060
The order should cover all grand jury material as well as non-public information related

430
00:32:22,060 --> 00:32:26,860
to the investigation and prosecution of Mr. Combs.

431
00:32:26,860 --> 00:32:32,220
Fourth, here's the caveat to this whole thing.

432
00:32:32,220 --> 00:32:33,220
Get ready.

433
00:32:33,220 --> 00:32:38,780
Fourth, after the hearing in the extent and nature of the misconduct has been clarified,

434
00:32:38,780 --> 00:32:46,300
Mr. Combs will submit requests for additional appropriate remedies including disqualification

435
00:32:46,300 --> 00:32:56,580
of witnesses, suppression of evidence, including the 2016 video and dismissal of all charges

436
00:32:56,580 --> 00:33:07,700
in the indictment and that was dated October 9, 2024, just three days from this recording.

437
00:33:07,700 --> 00:33:13,220
And I want to thank Miss Jacqueline Carla before I go any further.

438
00:33:13,220 --> 00:33:18,660
She's a fan of the show and she was the one who sent me this.

439
00:33:18,660 --> 00:33:21,580
It was probably within hours of it being released.

440
00:33:21,580 --> 00:33:27,020
I'd actually got out of recording a podcast and saw the message on Facebook.

441
00:33:27,020 --> 00:33:33,660
So thank you so much, Miss Jacqueline, for making me aware of that.

442
00:33:33,660 --> 00:33:35,940
And let's talk about all this.

443
00:33:35,940 --> 00:33:43,380
This is nothing more than the defense grasping at straws.

444
00:33:43,380 --> 00:33:51,460
Now I don't fault them for filing this and there probably were some leaks in here that

445
00:33:51,460 --> 00:33:54,940
were probably questionable.

446
00:33:54,940 --> 00:33:59,300
I don't know if there was necessarily government involvement, but the fact that you're trying

447
00:33:59,300 --> 00:34:05,740
to get that video now thrown out suppressed to where it doesn't exist, no way that happens.

448
00:34:05,740 --> 00:34:10,020
I'm going to tell you right now that ain't going to happen.

449
00:34:10,020 --> 00:34:11,740
The judge ain't going to let that happen.

450
00:34:11,740 --> 00:34:18,020
This main is on video majorly assaulting this female.

451
00:34:18,020 --> 00:34:25,740
And I'm glad it got out there and was shown personally, but there you have it.

452
00:34:25,740 --> 00:34:32,780
And as I mentioned at the top of this one, did he had his first appearance in court on

453
00:34:32,780 --> 00:34:41,460
October 10th in what's known as a pretrial hearing and his entire family was there.

454
00:34:41,460 --> 00:34:45,580
His kids, his mother and a lot of his supporters.

455
00:34:45,580 --> 00:34:54,080
Now during this hearing, the assistant US attorney Emily Johnson struck back against the

456
00:34:54,080 --> 00:35:00,660
motion that I just read you and stated that she took issue with the defense lawyers argument

457
00:35:00,660 --> 00:35:06,100
regarding the leaked video in particular of diddy, you know, beating the shit out of

458
00:35:06,100 --> 00:35:07,860
Cassie.

459
00:35:07,860 --> 00:35:14,900
And it's no surprise that the prosecutors urged the judge to strongly look at those claims

460
00:35:14,900 --> 00:35:17,020
and called them baseless.

461
00:35:17,020 --> 00:35:23,140
They accused the defense of trying to exclude damning pieces of evidence.

462
00:35:23,140 --> 00:35:24,740
And I grew that 100%.

463
00:35:24,740 --> 00:35:29,340
Now while the judge did not completely issue a gag order, which was something else, I just

464
00:35:29,340 --> 00:35:31,500
brought up that they were requesting.

465
00:35:31,500 --> 00:35:38,940
He did issue what is known as a perspective order, which would restrict what both sides

466
00:35:38,940 --> 00:35:41,700
can say publicly about the case.

467
00:35:41,700 --> 00:35:48,020
So that's a win of sorts for diddy's team and look, these are good lawyers.

468
00:35:48,020 --> 00:35:51,820
His defense team is a bunch of rock stars too.

469
00:35:51,820 --> 00:35:54,540
They're going to have some small wins here and there.

470
00:35:54,540 --> 00:36:01,180
That is a small win for them because while the entire case is not gagged and nobody can

471
00:36:01,180 --> 00:36:05,460
say anything, they're going to restrict what can be said.

472
00:36:05,460 --> 00:36:09,300
Also in this hearing, the trial date has now been set.

473
00:36:09,300 --> 00:36:16,020
I'm going to warn you ahead of time with these high profile cases like this, this often

474
00:36:16,020 --> 00:36:17,020
changes.

475
00:36:17,020 --> 00:36:25,180
If you're a true crime fan and you're following the serial killer case from Idaho, that case,

476
00:36:25,180 --> 00:36:30,740
the trial date has been moved probably seven times already.

477
00:36:30,740 --> 00:36:36,860
So with these high profile cases, it's possible that they could be moved several times, but

478
00:36:36,860 --> 00:36:38,300
it has been set for now.

479
00:36:38,300 --> 00:36:42,540
I'll tell you that in just a second, diddy's team of lawyers, they've been really pushing

480
00:36:42,540 --> 00:36:47,100
for the right to a speedy trial, which you have that right.

481
00:36:47,100 --> 00:36:48,100
And that's fine.

482
00:36:48,100 --> 00:36:49,780
I want to see you speedy trial too.

483
00:36:49,780 --> 00:36:54,200
I wish it was tomorrow personally, but they've really been pushing for that for several

484
00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:55,200
reasons.

485
00:36:55,200 --> 00:37:01,300
Number one, diddy's in jail and it looks like he's going to be in jail until he has his

486
00:37:01,300 --> 00:37:02,300
trial.

487
00:37:02,300 --> 00:37:06,460
So the quicker you get to the trial, the quicker he can get out of it.

488
00:37:06,460 --> 00:37:15,000
But they have been pushing for that and they've set a date for May 5th of 2025 to start the

489
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:16,000
actual trial.

490
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,780
And I know y'all are a lot like me.

491
00:37:18,780 --> 00:37:22,900
I'm sure we're in thinking man, that's seven, eight months from now.

492
00:37:22,900 --> 00:37:30,620
Y'all, that's that's actually pretty fast for a case, this large and all of the moving

493
00:37:30,620 --> 00:37:32,460
parts of this case.

494
00:37:32,460 --> 00:37:37,780
I was surprised that they set a date that soon.

495
00:37:37,780 --> 00:37:43,060
I was thinking this wouldn't be until November or December of next year.

496
00:37:43,060 --> 00:37:46,980
So we're going to start it on May 5th, assuming it's not moved.

497
00:37:46,980 --> 00:37:48,220
And I would say it all likely.

498
00:37:48,220 --> 00:37:52,020
And it will be so take it with a grain of salt.

499
00:37:52,020 --> 00:37:58,380
Lastly, on the developments, the defense team has appealed, of course, the decision to leave

500
00:37:58,380 --> 00:38:00,740
Ditty in jail, pinning his trial.

501
00:38:00,740 --> 00:38:07,780
Now I told you about a $50 million bail package that they offered, ankle monitors, all of that.

502
00:38:07,780 --> 00:38:11,740
But a rolling from an appellate court has not been issued.

503
00:38:11,740 --> 00:38:15,780
They actually appealed that because it was turned down by the courts.

504
00:38:15,780 --> 00:38:18,180
The appellate court has not issued a rolling.

505
00:38:18,180 --> 00:38:24,860
I don't think they're going to ever roll what the current court has already rolled on

506
00:38:24,860 --> 00:38:25,860
twice.

507
00:38:25,860 --> 00:38:30,460
But you never know what the legal system is going to do sometimes.

508
00:38:30,460 --> 00:38:42,820
So there's a chance he could get out of jail still.

509
00:38:42,820 --> 00:38:48,500
And that's about all the up-to-date information on Sean Ditty-Combs.
