- 0:00Speaker 1: Crime Stories with Nancy Grace.
- 0:06Speaker 2: Shock announcement Sean Combs aka Diddy aka Puff Daddy aka
- 0:14Speaker 2: Puffy aka Love Shawn Combs now set to leave prison
- 0:20Speaker 2: even sooner. His release date moved up yet again. You
- 0:27Speaker 2: know what, there just ain't no justice. I'm Nancy Grace.
- 0:31Speaker 2: This is Crime Stories. I want to thank you for
- 0:34Speaker 2: being with us. You heard it. Shawn Combs set to
- 0:37Speaker 2: be released from his four year prison sentence even earlier
- 0:41Speaker 2: than projected. His sentence shaved for a third time. He
- 0:47Speaker 2: will now be freed Feb twenty three, twenty twenty eight,
- 0:53Speaker 2: two months earlier than before. His sentence has already been
- 0:58Speaker 2: reduced before. Right now, he's in New Jersey's FCI Fort Dix,
- 1:04Speaker 2: the Federal Correctional Institute. He was originally set to be
- 1:08Speaker 2: released in May of twenty eight after his convictions on
- 1:11Speaker 2: two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. Now it's
- 1:16Speaker 2: been shaved down again. He had a rocky start behind bars.
- 1:20Speaker 2: Claims he drank moonshine and made unauthorized phone calls. His
- 1:24Speaker 2: lawyer denied it all. Notwithstanding he keeps getting time shaved
- 1:30Speaker 2: off his sentence. I wonder why what landed him there
- 1:34Speaker 2: in Fort Dick's FCI Federal Correctional Institute to start with.
- 1:38Speaker 2: After a split verdict where Shawn Combs is acquitted AVYCO,
- 1:46Speaker 2: two other accounts come into play. Shawn Comb's convicted on
- 1:49Speaker 2: two felony accounts. There was a massive argument via paper
- 1:56Speaker 2: to keep Shawncmbs behind bars, the defense fighting tooth and
- 1:59Speaker 2: nail to let him out on appeal bond, which means
- 2:04Speaker 2: you get out while your conviction is being appealed. Joining
- 2:09Speaker 2: me right now TISA Tales. You can find her on
- 2:12Speaker 2: YouTube at TISA Tales.
- 2:13Speaker 3: TISA.
- 2:14Speaker 2: Start at the beginning, Start with the verdict, the split.
- 2:20Speaker 4: What happened when the jury walked in, everybody was on
- 2:24Speaker 4: pins and needles.
- 2:25Speaker 3: I'm not gonna lie.
- 2:26Speaker 4: Everybody in the courtroom expected him to be guilty on
- 2:31Speaker 4: at least the sex trafficking. There was a somber tone
- 2:35Speaker 4: they walked in and when they said please read, and
- 2:39Speaker 4: they said, what do you find ye on Count one?
- 2:43Speaker 4: Not guilty? It was a bomb that went off in
- 2:46Speaker 4: the courtroom.
- 2:47Speaker 3: The public audibly guess nobody was expecting that.
- 2:52Speaker 4: There were tears of joy from Diddy's side. Count two,
- 2:56Speaker 4: what say ye not guilty?
- 2:59Speaker 3: Again? Another bombshell. What off. People were in utter disbelief.
- 3:04Speaker 4: Even Didty's most ardent supporters did not expect him to
- 3:07Speaker 4: get off on the count of sex trafficking.
- 3:09Speaker 3: With Cassie count three.
- 3:12Speaker 4: When they said guilty for transportation of a prostitute.
- 3:16Speaker 3: When they said guiltyject for.
- 3:17Speaker 4: The man a, that is when Didy's team actually cheered, yeah,
- 3:22Speaker 4: that's all right, okay, okay, come on, almost like we
- 3:25Speaker 4: were watching a pro football game. When the other ones
- 3:28Speaker 4: came in after that, there were jaws on the ground.
- 3:31Speaker 3: It was unbelievable. People were looking at the jury, searching and.
- 3:35Speaker 4: To how they can get a verdict in this day
- 3:38Speaker 4: and age. They heard Cassie's mother, the twenty thousand, they
- 3:43Speaker 4: heard Capricorn Clark, they heard.
- 3:45Speaker 3: About the savage beatings, and it.
- 3:47Speaker 4: Was unbelievable that the only thing they said was prostitution.
- 3:51Speaker 4: And that is because Daniel Phillips in his testimony actually said,
- 3:55Speaker 4: at least I'm guessing that was because that he got
- 3:58Speaker 4: paid to have sex for money. It was a travesty.
- 4:04Speaker 4: It was an all out circus. Everybody, including myself, are
- 4:08Speaker 4: running to safety.
- 4:09Speaker 2: I got a question for your teas of tails, and
- 4:11Speaker 2: everyone's going to want to know this.
- 4:13Speaker 1: You had to leave the courthouse.
- 4:15Speaker 4: Why I had to leave the courthouse because Didy's supporters
- 4:20Speaker 4: were out of control the first time I ran and
- 4:22Speaker 4: dipped my life.
- 4:23Speaker 3: Of course, I had two armed security guys.
- 4:26Speaker 4: Everyone told me. The people in the courthouse is like,
- 4:28Speaker 4: make sure you have security. There's a lot of weird
- 4:31Speaker 4: stuff going on. It wasn't just me, but I'll tell
- 4:34Speaker 4: you what I experienced. Diddy's supporter is surrounding me, threatening me,
- 4:38Speaker 4: saying that they were going to hurt me.
- 4:40Speaker 3: It was a serious situation. It got so bad and there.
- 4:43Speaker 4: Was so much chaos of chaos and violence that they
- 4:47Speaker 4: actually had to lock the courtroom down and force the
- 4:50Speaker 4: Didty supporters across the street. It was something myself, the
- 4:54Speaker 4: news media, mainstream media, new media have never seen in
- 4:58Speaker 4: their lives level. And again the jurors, I hope to
- 5:04Speaker 4: god they know how to sleep at night, because again
- 5:08Speaker 4: I'm sure they did their duty. But when all that
- 5:11Speaker 4: cast was happening, as I was being threatened and ushered
- 5:14Speaker 4: out by armed security people, I thought, this is what
- 5:18Speaker 4: the jury did. They sent a signal that it is
- 5:20Speaker 4: okay to use violence, it's okay to drug people up.
- 5:25Speaker 4: It's okay to live a life of debauchery. It's okay
- 5:29Speaker 4: to do whatever you want because guess what if you
- 5:31Speaker 4: work hard.
- 5:32Speaker 3: Enough and you have enough money and.
- 5:34Speaker 4: Enough delusional fans, and.
- 5:36Speaker 3: You have engrained yourself in culture enough that you can
- 5:39Speaker 3: do whatever you want, and twelve of your peers will
- 5:44Speaker 3: look the other way. Again, this jury was shocking past
- 5:48Speaker 3: of tales.
- 5:48Speaker 2: When you say that Shawnkhm's supporters threatened you, what were
- 5:53Speaker 2: they saying.
- 5:54Speaker 4: They were saying, you B you F and B were
- 5:57Speaker 4: going to kill you.
- 5:58Speaker 3: You F and B you work. Apparently I worked for
- 6:01Speaker 3: the fence. You're a plant. You make this all up
- 6:04Speaker 3: because of you. Again, they're not too smart, because of you.
- 6:07Speaker 3: That's how this case got started. We're gonna treat you
- 6:10Speaker 3: worse than we treated Cassie. Cassie, what we do to you,
- 6:13Speaker 3: it's gonna be nothing that they had on Cassie. They
- 6:15Speaker 3: were screaming, they were yelling. Some people were saying, apologize
- 6:18Speaker 3: the didty apologize the ditty? Of course, Thank goodness.
- 6:22Speaker 4: We had Lenny and we had Jimmy, two of the
- 6:25Speaker 4: best arm guards out there.
- 6:27Speaker 3: So the one thing.
- 6:28Speaker 4: Is they and also they started foaming like wild dogs
- 6:32Speaker 4: because they realized that I was not an unprotected woman,
- 6:35Speaker 4: and they realized they could not just do what they
- 6:38Speaker 4: felt like, and they started foaming like wild dogs, screaming,
- 6:41Speaker 4: their voices cracking in anger that they ricially wanted to
- 6:46Speaker 4: rip me apart.
- 6:47Speaker 3: This is why their hero had been exonerated.
- 6:50Speaker 4: Even in the best of times, these people that support him,
- 6:53Speaker 4: there's something wrong with it. And I gotta tell you, Nancy,
- 6:56Speaker 4: it wasn't just me.
- 6:58Speaker 3: It was not just me.
- 7:00Speaker 4: It was anybody that didn't have a pro Diddy stamp
- 7:04Speaker 4: from the beginning.
- 7:05Speaker 3: That's who suffered.
- 7:07Speaker 2: Joining me an all star panel. But I want to
- 7:09Speaker 2: thank Tisa Tales for what she's doing tonight. You know,
- 7:15Speaker 2: Rob Shooter is joining me.
- 7:17Speaker 5: Rob.
- 7:18Speaker 1: I really don't know where to start. This is a blow.
- 7:21Speaker 1: This is a huge blow.
- 7:23Speaker 2: To crime victims all over the country. Huge blow. The
- 7:27Speaker 2: big news is right now, Sean Combs is going to jail. Okay,
- 7:32Speaker 2: he's going to jail. I was actually worried that somehow
- 7:37Speaker 2: the judge would contriveting the law, and the law is
- 7:40Speaker 2: under the Bell Reform Act that for these two charges
- 7:43Speaker 2: on which he was convicted, he has to go to jail.
- 7:46Speaker 1: There is no appeal bond period.
- 7:49Speaker 2: But I was so concerned that the judge would somehow
- 7:53Speaker 2: find a way to let him walk. And all this time, Shooter,
- 7:57Speaker 2: we've been hearing I've got all these letters here. Here's
- 8:00Speaker 2: one from Deontay Nash in fear. In fear talking about
- 8:04Speaker 2: Combs is long, well documented history, a violent retaliatory behavior.
- 8:11Speaker 1: They're afraid.
- 8:13Speaker 2: Rob'shooter, guys, Shooter knows comes better.
- 8:18Speaker 1: Than any of us. His longtime publicists no more.
- 8:21Speaker 2: But now you can find him at his substack robshooter
- 8:25Speaker 2: dot substack dot com and non ey but Nice podcast.
- 8:29Speaker 1: Shooter.
- 8:29Speaker 2: I got to tell you, it's like a kick in
- 8:31Speaker 2: the stomach when that split verdict came down.
- 8:33Speaker 6: Yeah, I think everybody was done before. Before I continue, then, Nancy,
- 8:37Speaker 6: I just want to send my best to Tisha. What
- 8:39Speaker 6: happened to her outside that courthouse is horrific. It's wrong,
- 8:43Speaker 6: and I'm afraid these people now have been emboldened. When
- 8:47Speaker 6: we heard the judgment, I think we were all shell shocked,
- 8:51Speaker 6: we were all heartbroken, we all felt like we'd been
- 8:54Speaker 6: kicked in the stomach. However, as the day has gone on,
- 8:58Speaker 6: we do have to remember Bonanci that he has been
- 9:01Speaker 6: found guilty of two very serious charges. If any other
- 9:06Speaker 6: celebrity had been charged with those two charges, those alone
- 9:11Speaker 6: and being found guilty, we would be done with them.
- 9:14Speaker 6: So the celebration from Team Diddy, the disappointment from people
- 9:19Speaker 6: who've been watching this as closely as we have. I
- 9:21Speaker 6: think we can take a step back both sides and
- 9:24Speaker 6: realize that this is not a good day for Diddy.
- 9:28Speaker 6: He is now a federal criminal, is in jail tonight,
- 9:33Speaker 6: He's going to remain there, and so at least take
- 9:36Speaker 6: some solace in that.
- 9:38Speaker 2: You know, Rob Sheoter, I've been getting flooded by crime victims,
- 9:44Speaker 2: rape victims from all walks of life.
- 9:47Speaker 1: There are upset.
- 9:49Speaker 2: They don't really sound mad, yet they're devastated. They're sad,
- 9:54Speaker 2: they can't believe this has happened. I've been already subjected
- 9:59Speaker 2: to a lot of attacks, verbal attacks, nothing like what
- 10:04Speaker 2: Tisa tells has been subjected to already.
- 10:08Speaker 1: But I give the credit to the prosecutors for going
- 10:12Speaker 1: in there.
- 10:13Speaker 2: And I truly believe this was a David and Goliath,
- 10:17Speaker 2: and they went in against one of the highest profile
- 10:21Speaker 2: personalities in our country, Sean Comes, who many people think
- 10:28Speaker 2: that they know, and they love him, and for some
- 10:32Speaker 2: reason that blinded them, that drowned out everything that three
- 10:38Speaker 2: sex attack victims said, and.
- 10:41Speaker 1: One had the video, one has the video. I just
- 10:47Speaker 1: I don't get it.
- 10:49Speaker 2: Rob Sheeter, give me some insight and to how Sean Comes.
- 10:54Speaker 1: Got a split vertic.
- 10:55Speaker 2: But yes, you're right, he is going to jail on
- 10:58Speaker 2: two felonies, two felonies.
- 11:02Speaker 1: That's a victory that Sean Comes is going to jail.
- 11:05Speaker 7: Yeah, that's a victory.
- 11:06Speaker 6: We have to had on for that, Nancy, because in
- 11:08Speaker 6: this moment, in this hour, there's not a lot of hope.
- 11:11Speaker 6: Everything seems so bad. We have let down not just
- 11:14Speaker 6: the people in this case, but victims around the world.
- 11:19Speaker 6: Did He now will be empowered. This is not the
- 11:23Speaker 6: end of the story, Nancy. When he gets out of jail,
- 11:26Speaker 6: if he gets out of jail, he's behavior will not
- 11:30Speaker 6: change because he thinks he has gotten away with it. Again,
- 11:35Speaker 6: if you enable someone, Nancy, they do not change. So
- 11:39Speaker 6: mark my words, Nancy, this is not the end of
- 11:41Speaker 6: the did He story. It's the end of a very,
- 11:44Speaker 6: very sad chapter. And I think we've let a lot
- 11:46Speaker 6: of people down. And as far as being concerned about safety,
- 11:50Speaker 6: I just broke reporting that Cassie has now increased her security.
- 11:54Speaker 6: Cassie in New York, her home now has security increased.
- 11:59Speaker 6: And I think a lot of other people, courageous people
- 12:02Speaker 6: who came forward assistance, people that worked with Diddy came
- 12:06Speaker 6: forward and testified. They're very vulnerable and they are very,
- 12:10Speaker 6: very scared right now.
- 12:13Speaker 2: Lynn Shaw joining me, founder and director Lynn's Warriors, dedicated
- 12:17Speaker 2: to ending sex trafficking and sex.
- 12:19Speaker 1: Abuse on girls and women.
- 12:23Speaker 2: When I learned about the split verdict, I was speechless.
- 12:28Speaker 1: I couldn't believe it. But it's happened.
- 12:32Speaker 2: So what do you want the prosecutors to do? Go
- 12:34Speaker 2: home and hide under the bed? Should they have just
- 12:36Speaker 2: never even brought the case. They did it because they
- 12:39Speaker 2: believed it, and I still do believe it.
- 12:42Speaker 1: Lynn.
- 12:43Speaker 2: I believe Cassie Ventira was coerced and beaten into having
- 12:49Speaker 2: sex with male sex workers. That's sex trafficking.
- 12:52Speaker 1: I believe her.
- 12:53Speaker 8: I believe Cassie.
- 12:55Speaker 1: I believe Jane.
- 12:56Speaker 8: I believe sex trafficking. This is a sober ref on
- 13:00Speaker 8: everything I've been talking about for about eight weeks now
- 13:03Speaker 8: with this trial that the public and I'm going to
- 13:07Speaker 8: say the jurors, okay, do not understand predation, power, what
- 13:13Speaker 8: sex trafficking is, and a reminder again, this case was
- 13:18Speaker 8: not just about one man. This case was about all
- 13:21Speaker 8: of the victims across the country, the world whose voices
- 13:25Speaker 8: have been silenced because they don't come forward because the
- 13:28Speaker 8: justice system usually picks power, wealth status over believing their truths.
- 13:35Speaker 8: But I want to point out there is hope. I've
- 13:37Speaker 8: spent all day coaching people, talking people, fielding text messages,
- 13:42Speaker 8: and I want to say, you know what, these victims
- 13:44Speaker 8: that reach out to me, Nancy, they're not even angry,
- 13:47Speaker 8: you know what they keep saying. Please Lynn, please remind
- 13:50Speaker 8: everybody we're victims. Please remind everybody we have a voice.
- 13:52Speaker 8: Please remind everybody we are here. And that goes back
- 13:56Speaker 8: to I have to do, we have to do in
- 13:59Speaker 8: society better job of educating about sex trafficking, about trauma, bonding, trauma,
- 14:06Speaker 8: what predation really looks like. This is the most frightening
- 14:09Speaker 8: thing to empower this Sean Combs and I just want
- 14:13Speaker 8: to make the commitment that we will work very hard
- 14:16Speaker 8: to continue reforming, raising awareness and working with the justice system.
- 14:20Speaker 2: Straight back out to Tisa Tales, who has made it
- 14:22Speaker 2: to a safe location, Tasa tales. I want to talk
- 14:25Speaker 2: about what happened when the split verdict was announced in
- 14:30Speaker 2: the courtroom, and then I want to move to the
- 14:33Speaker 2: appeal bond hearing. Let's start with the split verdict. Take
- 14:36Speaker 2: it from the very beginning.
- 14:38Speaker 4: When you heard count one, not guilty, a bomb went
- 14:43Speaker 4: off in the courtroom.
- 14:44Speaker 3: Not guilty. No one could believe it.
- 14:47Speaker 4: Song Didy's calm side even looked around as if they
- 14:51Speaker 4: hadn't heard correctly. No one thought that the jury would
- 14:56Speaker 4: actually go this far. Everybody thought that the delay meant
- 15:00Speaker 4: that he was actually guilty. When the second count was
- 15:04Speaker 4: read again, jaws dropped open.
- 15:08Speaker 3: Did he leaned back in relief, raised his hands. The
- 15:12Speaker 3: defence team was like, yes, I get it. They literally
- 15:15Speaker 3: pulled a magic act.
- 15:17Speaker 4: Okay, they literally pulled a magic act. His team, his side,
- 15:22Speaker 4: started celebrating, started saying yeah.
- 15:24Speaker 3: When we heard the third count, guilty for the prostitution. Okay.
- 15:29Speaker 3: Everyone on his side it was like, that's okay, that's okay.
- 15:33Speaker 4: They were clapping, almost like they were watching a football game.
- 15:36Speaker 4: When they first came out with the verdict. The prosecution
- 15:39Speaker 4: was doing what they were doing. They were looking straight.
- 15:41Speaker 4: It is a job. I would assume to look like
- 15:44Speaker 4: they always have it under control.
- 15:45Speaker 3: By the time they got.
- 15:46Speaker 4: To the third count, Marine called me, looked over at
- 15:50Speaker 4: the jury and disbelief.
- 15:52Speaker 3: Literally again, she's always very composed, but even.
- 15:55Speaker 4: For her to finally look over at the jury on
- 15:58Speaker 4: some are you kidding me?
- 16:00Speaker 3: And she just kept looking at the jury as they
- 16:03Speaker 3: read the counts.
- 16:04Speaker 4: Again, I know the jury did their best, but I
- 16:07Speaker 4: cannot feel that justice was served. How can you forget
- 16:11Speaker 4: the vicious beatings? How can you forget the twenty k
- 16:14Speaker 4: the mom had the wire and order for two freak
- 16:17Speaker 4: off tapes not to be released.
- 16:19Speaker 3: Okay, that's what she thought when she wired it.
- 16:22Speaker 4: How can you forget what happened to Bonna being hung
- 16:25Speaker 4: over balcony.
- 16:26Speaker 3: She might have got the date wrong by a few
- 16:28Speaker 3: days days, but the point is it happened.
- 16:30Speaker 4: How you can forget Deontae Nash and the best friend
- 16:34Speaker 4: Carrie who got a hangar to the head and saw
- 16:37Speaker 4: Cassie get impiled driven into the corner of a bed
- 16:42Speaker 4: on purpose. How can you forget all that and come
- 16:45Speaker 4: back and say, you know what, we don't see anything
- 16:48Speaker 4: criminal here. Again, we can argue about the prosexcuse prostitution
- 16:54Speaker 4: got ditty on the head.
- 16:55Speaker 3: We can argue about the prosecution.
- 16:56Speaker 4: What they could have did better, but the fact that
- 16:59Speaker 4: the jury chose to overlook all that. It brought me
- 17:03Speaker 4: back to what Rob Shooter said weeks ago when I
- 17:06Speaker 4: first started joining you, Nacy, that people get starstrucked and
- 17:10Speaker 4: they want some of that magic. And it makes me
- 17:12Speaker 4: wonder were they starstruck? Were they feeling sorry and trying
- 17:16Speaker 4: to protect a legacy for someone that hit their depravity
- 17:20Speaker 4: and their evil ways behind it.
- 17:21Speaker 1: It makes you wonder crime stories with Nancy Grace.
- 17:34Speaker 2: The Federal Bureau of Prisons declines to provide any details
- 17:38Speaker 2: on why Sean Combs' release date has been moved up
- 17:42Speaker 2: yet again. They stated, quote, they do not discuss conditions
- 17:47Speaker 2: of confinement for any individual, including release plans. Hmmm. I
- 17:53Speaker 2: hope they warn a few people before he walks free.
- 17:57Speaker 2: Why because Sean comes has a very bad temper and
- 18:01Speaker 2: holds a grudge. Shawn Combs faced many serious charges during
- 18:05Speaker 2: his trial, including sex trafficking, racketeering, all of those who
- 18:10Speaker 2: have landed him behind bars for life, but he was
- 18:13Speaker 2: acquitted on those counts. He was placed in custody at
- 18:16Speaker 2: Brooklyn's notorious MDC the Metropolitan Detention Center, but now has
- 18:22Speaker 2: been transferred to a federal pen at Fort Dix. His
- 18:27Speaker 2: constantly changing release dates have been all tangled up in
- 18:31Speaker 2: claims he drank moonshine aka Pruno behind bars, made unauthorized
- 18:38Speaker 2: cell phone calls, and more. According to reports, behind bars,
- 18:43Speaker 2: he was tipping the bottle with fermented Phanta sugar and apples.
- 18:51Speaker 2: According to sources, Hmmm that said, that is a far
- 18:57Speaker 2: cry from the jet set life he lived before he
- 19:00Speaker 2: was convicted. What happened in court? Back to Tisa Tails
- 19:04Speaker 2: joining us, she had to be escorted by armed guards
- 19:07Speaker 2: out of the courthouse and leave the scene after she
- 19:11Speaker 2: was mobbed by Diddy fans. Explain to me what was
- 19:15Speaker 2: happening outside the courthouse? I understand that was the split
- 19:19Speaker 2: verdict was announced. The Diddy followers, the Diddy worshippers, went
- 19:24Speaker 2: cray outside the courthouse, actually dousing each other with baby
- 19:28Speaker 2: oil and chanting.
- 19:30Speaker 3: They swarmed the circle. It looked like a mush pit
- 19:33Speaker 3: of depravity.
- 19:34Speaker 4: They were spraying baby oil on each other, jumping around,
- 19:38Speaker 4: feeling fantastic. One woman and a pair of Calvin kleinb
- 19:42Speaker 4: breefe and a bra started jumping up and down, wiggling
- 19:46Speaker 4: why they sat there spraying baby on her, and the
- 19:49Speaker 4: crowd was.
- 19:49Speaker 3: Channing yay, yay, yay go and hyping them up. It
- 19:53Speaker 3: was a monstrous.
- 19:54Speaker 4: Bowl of party depravity. When I say I was sickened,
- 19:58Speaker 4: when I say, I shuck, shook my head. And when
- 20:01Speaker 4: I said, these are the peers, these are the jury
- 20:05Speaker 4: of the peers. And it makes me wonder as a
- 20:07Speaker 4: jury goes home and they look at the television sets
- 20:10Speaker 4: and they see what their decision costs and what was
- 20:15Speaker 4: on the line, it makes me wonder how can they.
- 20:19Speaker 3: Sleep at night?
- 20:20Speaker 4: It was absolute pandemonia in between the jumping up and
- 20:24Speaker 4: down with the baby oil woman willingly baby.
- 20:28Speaker 3: Oil being squirted on them, and everybody laughing and having.
- 20:31Speaker 4: A time like Christmas had just come with Santa and
- 20:35Speaker 4: the twel perverted elves.
- 20:37Speaker 3: What happened after that was even more amazing.
- 20:39Speaker 4: Because while that was going on, there were little fires
- 20:43Speaker 4: everywhere of these bands of I don't know if they're
- 20:46Speaker 4: in cels, if they're idiots, what was going on looking
- 20:48Speaker 4: for anybody they had ever saw make anti ditty contests,
- 20:54Speaker 4: and by anti Diddy, according to THEILM.
- 20:56Speaker 3: It is pro justice.
- 20:58Speaker 4: They were going out their way to make sure.
- 21:01Speaker 3: That everybody paid.
- 21:03Speaker 4: And again I said, this is what that jury costs us,
- 21:07Speaker 4: and let us know.
- 21:08Speaker 3: It sent a message.
- 21:09Speaker 4: It's okay to be depraved, it's okay to beat women,
- 21:12Speaker 4: it's okay to do drugs, it's okay to do whatever
- 21:15Speaker 4: you want. And that jury, that jury, when they gave
- 21:19Speaker 4: the verdict, signal deck. Again, I'm still coming to terms
- 21:22Speaker 4: with how the jury got to this.
- 21:24Speaker 3: Thank god, this man was denied bail, Thank god.
- 21:27Speaker 2: Straight out to Sidney Sunray joining US Crime Stories, investigative
- 21:30Speaker 2: reporter on the case from the very beginning break down
- 21:32Speaker 2: the counts for me, said.
- 21:33Speaker 9: Nancy, how one is that racketeering, rico conspiracy. Combs was
- 21:38Speaker 9: found not guilty on count one, Count two, three, four,
- 21:42Speaker 9: and five are those sex trafficking and transportation to engage
- 21:47Speaker 9: in prostitution charges. So there was one count each for
- 21:51Speaker 9: Cassey and Jane on both of those charges. So the
- 21:55Speaker 9: jury found that Combes was liable for both transportation to
- 21:59Speaker 9: eng agent prostitution charges and not guilty on sex trafficking
- 22:04Speaker 9: for either Jane or Cassie.
- 22:06Speaker 2: Straight out to Philip Dubay, joining US veteran trial lawyer
- 22:09Speaker 2: joining us out of the LA jurisdiction. So debay, this
- 22:13Speaker 2: is the breakdown. Count one racketeering not guilty. Count two
- 22:18Speaker 2: sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion as it relates
- 22:22Speaker 2: to Cassie Ventira, you know the woman that was beaten
- 22:25Speaker 2: in that video and dragged back to a freak off
- 22:28Speaker 2: her the one that had to get plastic surgery on
- 22:30Speaker 2: her face after.
- 22:31Speaker 1: Didd he beat her up. That one, that's a not guilty.
- 22:34Speaker 2: Count three transportation to engage in prostitution as it relates
- 22:39Speaker 2: to Cassie. Guilty that carries a maximum of ten years.
- 22:44Speaker 2: And that comes, I believe from the sex worker who
- 22:46Speaker 2: came in Philip and described Sean Combs wearing a burka
- 22:50Speaker 2: from the chin up and make it from the.
- 22:52Speaker 1: Chin down and had him have.
- 22:56Speaker 2: Sex with Cassie on video and directed them that was
- 23:00Speaker 2: across state lines. So guilty on that count four, sex
- 23:05Speaker 2: trafficking by force, fraud of coercion as it relates to
- 23:09Speaker 2: Jane victim two not guilty. Count five transportation to engage
- 23:14Speaker 2: in prostitution as it relates to Jane guilty. So we
- 23:20Speaker 2: got two guilties three not guilties split verdict. So there
- 23:25Speaker 2: was great jubilation at first when Diddy followers heard split.
- 23:32Speaker 2: They heard the words not guilty on count one and
- 23:35Speaker 2: went crazy. What do you think is going to happen now, Philip?
- 23:40Speaker 7: He will be getting prison time, There's no question.
- 23:43Speaker 1: Right, Another thing debate. Let's get real.
- 23:46Speaker 2: It's really rare in federal and state court that once
- 23:51Speaker 2: you're convicted and a jury convicts.
- 23:54Speaker 1: You on a violent offence, that you.
- 23:56Speaker 2: Get an appeal bond, which means, okay, judge, I know
- 24:01Speaker 2: he just got convicted, but could you please let him
- 24:03Speaker 2: walk free now until we take this all the way
- 24:07Speaker 2: up to the appellate court and get a decision that
- 24:11Speaker 2: rarely works.
- 24:12Speaker 1: Agree? Disagree?
- 24:13Speaker 5: Oh?
- 24:13Speaker 7: I agree one hundred percent.
- 24:16Speaker 2: No higher court is going to find that this judge
- 24:18Speaker 2: abused his discretion by not letting him out or by
- 24:21Speaker 2: not setting a bond.
- 24:22Speaker 9: You know.
- 24:22Speaker 2: Robert Crispin joining me, private investigator at Crispin Special Investigations,
- 24:27Speaker 2: former homicide and former vice detective Crispin.
- 24:32Speaker 1: Here's the deal.
- 24:33Speaker 2: If the judge had granted Shawn Combs a bond and
- 24:37Speaker 2: appeal bond. Now remember once he was arrested, Crispin he
- 24:42Speaker 2: was kept behind bars. He did not have a bond
- 24:45Speaker 2: right for a reason. He's got money, and he squats
- 24:50Speaker 2: right over by Teeterborough, the private airport near New York.
- 24:55Speaker 2: You know, if the judge had given Shawn Combs an
- 24:59Speaker 2: appeal bond, he goes straight to Teiteborough and take off.
- 25:03Speaker 2: Probably I don an assumed name. When you fly a
- 25:05Speaker 2: private plane, you can give a fake ID.
- 25:09Speaker 1: Just it's not the same as going through TSA.
- 25:13Speaker 2: At Partsville International or LaGuardia or jfk No, where they
- 25:17Speaker 2: will frisk you and look.
- 25:18Speaker 1: In all your bags. It's not like that. At a
- 25:21Speaker 1: private plane.
- 25:21Speaker 2: You kind of just walk on onto your private plane
- 25:24Speaker 2: that he has, have a glass of champagne, and go
- 25:27Speaker 2: bye bye us, Hello Paris.
- 25:29Speaker 1: That's what happens, Crispin.
- 25:31Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 25:31Speaker 5: Actually, earlier, just before we came on, Nancy, I was
- 25:33Speaker 5: trying to find out where his G five to fifty was,
- 25:35Speaker 5: because we know that it was out in La a
- 25:39Speaker 5: couple of days ago. I was trying to see if
- 25:41Speaker 5: they had already got those guys up and running and
- 25:43Speaker 5: that plane was coming eastbound, thinking he was going to
- 25:46Speaker 5: probably get out and dip out back out to La
- 25:48Speaker 5: or back down here. To Miami, to where his neighbors
- 25:52Speaker 5: aren't certainly thrilled about him coming back, but doesn't look
- 25:56Speaker 5: like anytime soon he's going to be gracing his presence
- 25:58Speaker 5: with these guys. So I was trying to find out
- 26:02Speaker 5: where that jet was that I haven't found out yet.
- 26:04Speaker 5: But the verdict is just it's heartbreaking, and it's a
- 26:08Speaker 5: black eye to the victims. It's terrible, horrible for any
- 26:13Speaker 5: of these victims that want to come forward, or any
- 26:15Speaker 5: witness that wants to put their ass on the line,
- 26:18Speaker 5: raise the right hand and testify against somebody. When a
- 26:21Speaker 5: jury's going to find that guy not guilty, that's really
- 26:25Speaker 5: bad for.
- 26:25Speaker 10: These witnesses and victims. They know what's coming. Now. Look
- 26:28Speaker 10: what's happened to our reporter As she was leaving the courthouse,
- 26:33Speaker 10: they were attacking her. This guy was found guilty of
- 26:36Speaker 10: federal crimes.
- 26:37Speaker 1: And I'd like to point.
- 26:38Speaker 2: Out Rob Sheeter what they were saying to Tisa tails Rob.
- 26:41Speaker 2: They were saying, we're going to do worse to you
- 26:44Speaker 2: than we did to Cassie Shooter. I mean, Diddy has
- 26:50Speaker 2: to be condoning this. He has been orchestrating the crowd.
- 26:53Speaker 2: He's been orchestrating everything.
- 26:55Speaker 6: Yeah, Nancy, I think looking for Diddy to do the
- 26:58Speaker 6: right thing at this moment is unready.
- 27:00Speaker 7: This is who he is.
- 27:01Speaker 6: The whole world has seen who he is, and unfortunately
- 27:04Speaker 6: there's a large amount of people out there who are
- 27:07Speaker 6: just perfectly fine with this. Nobody can pretend anymore that
- 27:11Speaker 6: we don't know who did he is. We know we've
- 27:14Speaker 6: seen him on tape. That tape will exist forever. We've
- 27:18Speaker 6: heard the testimonies, we've heard the accounts, we've heard the details,
- 27:22Speaker 6: we've seen them, and yet some people still support him.
- 27:27Speaker 6: There's nothing we can do about that, Nancy. And to
- 27:31Speaker 6: think that Diddy is going to stop it, that ain't
- 27:33Speaker 6: going to happen.
- 27:34Speaker 7: He's going to encourage it.
- 27:35Speaker 6: He wants people out there, he wants the violence, he
- 27:38Speaker 6: wants people screaming. This to him is the party that
- 27:42Speaker 6: he always wanted to throw shape.
- 27:45Speaker 2: You know, Rob Shooter, everything you're saying can be transposed
- 27:50Speaker 2: to him before he was arrested. You know, in every case,
- 27:55Speaker 2: I've told you this before off air. I've seen a
- 27:58Speaker 2: million homicide scenes, been to the Morgue, I've seen it all.
- 28:03Speaker 1: But there's always a.
- 28:04Speaker 2: Moment in a trial that just twists the knife is
- 28:07Speaker 2: very disturbing. And in this trial, there were two moments
- 28:12Speaker 2: like that for me.
- 28:13Speaker 3: And one was.
- 28:14Speaker 2: In the Hotel Intercontinental video beat down where she had
- 28:19Speaker 2: already been beaten and she was backing up and she
- 28:22Speaker 2: tried to hold up She's right handed was holding holding
- 28:26Speaker 2: her mouth I think, with one hand, the right hand
- 28:29Speaker 2: and holding up her left hand against Sean Comb's like
- 28:34Speaker 2: she could fight him off, okay. And the the other
- 28:38Speaker 2: moment was when she was getting beaten and she was
- 28:42Speaker 2: down on the floor and Combs had a glass, a
- 28:49Speaker 2: liquor glass held up ready to throw down at her face,
- 28:54Speaker 2: and she said, can't you see what's happening?
- 28:59Speaker 1: And nobody did anything. It's just like in the courtroom.
- 29:03Speaker 1: The jury didn't do anything.
- 29:08Speaker 7: They didn't.
- 29:09Speaker 6: They didn't, Nancy.
- 29:10Speaker 7: It's heartbreaking. People I know who.
- 29:12Speaker 6: Have worked with him, who knew him, many of us
- 29:15Speaker 6: are on a text exchange and they're heartbroken, and a
- 29:19Speaker 6: lot of people are really worried to I don't want
- 29:22Speaker 6: to keep hopping on about this, Nancy, but this is
- 29:24Speaker 6: a very dangerous man.
- 29:25Speaker 7: This is a man who allegedly.
- 29:28Speaker 6: Try to fire bomb the car of somebody that was
- 29:32Speaker 6: dating he's girlfriend, his ex girlfriend. This is a dangerous,
- 29:36Speaker 6: dangerous man. And what that jury has just done has
- 29:39Speaker 6: said it doesn't matter. It's okay. You keep being puffy,
- 29:43Speaker 6: you keep being you, and we will support you. But
- 29:46Speaker 6: let me just say, Nancy, we can't just blame the
- 29:49Speaker 6: jury here. We've got to blame the person that did it.
- 29:51Speaker 6: And that's did he did. He is responsible for all this.
- 29:55Speaker 6: Everything else is a red herring. He's the problem and
- 29:58Speaker 6: he will continue now to.
- 30:00Speaker 7: Be a prople.
- 30:00Speaker 2: Doctor Cheryl Errett, who is a clinical and forensic psychologist,
- 30:05Speaker 2: explain the effect this is going to have on not
- 30:08Speaker 2: only these victims that we heard on the stand, but
- 30:11Speaker 2: other victims everywhere.
- 30:14Speaker 11: Nancy, Once there is the threat of violence, that power
- 30:18Speaker 11: control tactic shapes everything that happens after that. We have
- 30:23Speaker 11: a jury who heard evidence about a tremendous amount of violence, threats,
- 30:28Speaker 11: threats of blackmail, videotaped assaults that were maintaining the power
- 30:33Speaker 11: and control, and yet they didn't feel that they had
- 30:36Speaker 11: enough evidence to be able to find that what was
- 30:39Speaker 11: happening there was not consensual.
- 30:42Speaker 3: Trafficking has to.
- 30:43Speaker 11: Do with force, fraud, coercion. Consent is anything, but when
- 30:50Speaker 11: somebody really scary makes you an offer that you cannot
- 30:54Speaker 11: refuse that is not consent. And what I think people
- 30:58Speaker 11: are failing to understand and about the way that the
- 31:01Speaker 11: even the threat of violence shapes behavior is that when
- 31:05Speaker 11: someone does not believe that they can survive a threat
- 31:08Speaker 11: by actually fighting back, they use fawning, They use appeasing,
- 31:13Speaker 11: they use the freeze response. They are trying to placate
- 31:17Speaker 11: the person who is scaring them. And this man certainly
- 31:19Speaker 11: has no shortage of people who were really, really frightened
- 31:23Speaker 11: of him and still are. And I think that these
- 31:26Speaker 11: really normal autonomic nervous system survival responses, fawning, appeasing, the
- 31:32Speaker 11: freeze response, These are things that need to be understood
- 31:35Speaker 11: better by juries, understood better by the public, and even
- 31:39Speaker 11: by survivors themselves.
- 31:42Speaker 2: You know, Rob Shooter, Would you look one more time
- 31:45Speaker 2: at these celebrations going on outside the courthouse after the
- 31:51Speaker 2: split verdict was announced.
- 31:53Speaker 7: Take a look, thought, Nancy.
- 32:06Speaker 6: I can tell you, as somebody who knows puff those
- 32:09Speaker 6: people standing outside that courts have never met him. They've
- 32:12Speaker 6: never been to his apartment, they've never been on his
- 32:14Speaker 6: private plane. They've never had a text or an email
- 32:17Speaker 6: or a phone call with him I have. He doesn't
- 32:20Speaker 6: care about any of those people, all those people who
- 32:25Speaker 6: have took their time, their energy to go and support
- 32:28Speaker 6: this guy. Let me talk to them directly.
- 32:30Speaker 7: He does not care about you.
- 32:34Speaker 6: If he can treat his girlfriend Cassie the way that
- 32:37Speaker 6: we've seen him treat it on video, this is not testimony,
- 32:41Speaker 6: this is video. If he can treat someone who he's
- 32:44Speaker 6: supposed to love like that, how do you think he
- 32:48Speaker 6: can treat you. He doesn't care about you. You're wasting
- 32:52Speaker 6: your energy on him, And honestly, my friends, stop, he
- 32:57Speaker 6: doesn't care. He's laughing at these people side that Cord has.
- 33:01Speaker 6: He's egging them on, but he doesn't care.
- 33:05Speaker 2: You know, Rob Sheeter, you speak with so much conviction
- 33:08Speaker 2: and so much feeling, and that tells me that you
- 33:11Speaker 2: know something, something you haven't told me.
- 33:15Speaker 1: Why do you believe this?
- 33:17Speaker 2: What did you observe to make you say what you
- 33:21Speaker 2: just said.
- 33:23Speaker 6: I've observed a really selfish person, Nancy. I've observed a
- 33:27Speaker 6: person who doesn't have any shame, who has no sense
- 33:30Speaker 6: of pride, who has no sense of decency. He's a
- 33:35Speaker 6: really bad man, and through his career, through the media,
- 33:40Speaker 6: through his products. He has managed to come us all,
- 33:43Speaker 6: to kid us all into believing he is somebody else. Now,
- 33:48Speaker 6: I hoped that day was coming to an end. In fact,
- 33:51Speaker 6: I could even tell you the day that I thought
- 33:53Speaker 6: it was ending.
- 33:54Speaker 7: It was today.
- 33:55Speaker 6: I'm absolutely punched to my gut, to my stomach to
- 34:00Speaker 6: know that Puffy once again rises. Maybe not like a phoenix,
- 34:06Speaker 6: but justice does not feel as if it has been
- 34:09Speaker 6: sod sheeter.
- 34:10Speaker 2: Do you know that people aren't flooding the courthouse, the
- 34:14Speaker 2: judges chambers with letters please don't let him out.
- 34:17Speaker 1: We're afraid.
- 34:18Speaker 2: From Cassie Ventura's lawyer to Deonte Nash, so many others
- 34:24Speaker 2: in fear, just like what you're saying. And we heard
- 34:28Speaker 2: earlier how this affects people. They saw what happened to
- 34:33Speaker 2: Kid Cuddy, they saw what happened to Cassie, and now he's.
- 34:37Speaker 4: Going to walk.
- 34:42Speaker 1: Crime stories with Nancy Grace.
- 34:48Speaker 2: According to his attorney's quote, his only focus is becoming
- 34:52Speaker 2: the best version of himself and returning to his family.
- 34:56Speaker 2: Oh if that were only true. Cannon Leopard change his spots.
- 35:02Speaker 2: This is what we know about what happened in court.
- 35:05Speaker 2: Everyone or I sprang each other with baby oil. Outside
- 35:08Speaker 2: the courthouse and baying and yelling and celebrating.
- 35:14Speaker 1: Comes goes back into the.
- 35:15Speaker 2: Courtroom Sydney for the hearing. Right the hearing on is
- 35:21Speaker 2: there going to be an appeal bond?
- 35:23Speaker 4: Is?
- 35:24Speaker 2: Comes going to walk out of the courthouse a freeman today.
- 35:29Speaker 2: During that hearing, Comes briefly tries to raise his hand
- 35:32Speaker 2: to speak after the judge denies his request for release again.
- 35:38Speaker 2: The judge seemed to ignore the move and instead asks
- 35:42Speaker 2: the US Assistant Attorney Mariene Comy to respond, and she says, quote,
- 35:49Speaker 2: he is extremely violent with an extraordinary temper, who has
- 35:52Speaker 2: shown no remorse.
- 35:54Speaker 1: And no regret.
- 35:57Speaker 2: And it makes me think, Sydney, about that fake apology.
- 36:01Speaker 2: I'm going to keep that up and play it for
- 36:02Speaker 2: you in just a moment, said where he does all
- 36:05Speaker 2: this apologizing after baiting Cassie, but according to what we
- 36:10Speaker 2: learned in court and sworn testimony, he continued the violence
- 36:14Speaker 2: after the apology video. That's what she said, No remorse
- 36:19Speaker 2: and no regret at all.
- 36:22Speaker 9: Yeah, that is definitely what the judge and prosecutors are thinking.
- 36:28Speaker 9: Comy referenced the violent incident with Jane after Colmmes knew
- 36:33Speaker 9: he was already under investigation. The judge referenced the multiple
- 36:38Speaker 9: instances of Colme's trying to reach out to potential witnesses,
- 36:43Speaker 9: trying to sway their opinions of what they might tell
- 36:47Speaker 9: investigators after this investigation began, when Colmes was well aware
- 36:51Speaker 9: it was underway. Judge s hermoney and also referenced Mark
- 36:55Speaker 9: Acmphillo's own closing arguments. You full throatedly told the jury
- 37:00Speaker 9: that there was violence, domestic violence in all of Comb's relationships.
- 37:04Speaker 9: Y'all own that, and it may have helped on some
- 37:08Speaker 9: of these charges. It may have helped with the guilty
- 37:12Speaker 9: not guilty verdict, but it is definitely coming back to
- 37:15Speaker 9: bite him.
- 37:16Speaker 2: Now, straight out to Lynn Shaw. This also happened in
- 37:20Speaker 2: the proceedings. This is after Combs tried to raise his
- 37:24Speaker 2: hand to address the judge directly during the arguments, And
- 37:28Speaker 2: this is after the split verdict when everybody was celebrating outside.
- 37:33Speaker 2: Now comes the appeal bond, where the judge is going
- 37:36Speaker 2: to decide will comes walk free tonight?
- 37:40Speaker 1: Okay.
- 37:41Speaker 2: The judge looks over at the defense and he says,
- 37:46Speaker 2: as Sidney just reported.
- 37:48Speaker 1: Quote you full throatedly. I've never even heard anybody use
- 37:53Speaker 1: that phrase. But he did.
- 37:54Speaker 2: You full throatedly in your closing argument told the jury
- 37:58Speaker 2: there was violent and domestic violence is violence.
- 38:04Speaker 1: You said this was the case that did have violence.
- 38:07Speaker 2: This is the judge talking to Combs as to the
- 38:11Speaker 2: basic question of violence. You conceded that in your closing argument.
- 38:16Speaker 2: Now throughout this comes is furiously passing notes back and
- 38:20Speaker 2: forth to Agnifilo, who is trying to stand there and
- 38:23Speaker 2: argue and read Alla Shan comes his notes.
- 38:26Speaker 1: Wait for it, Lynn Shaw.
- 38:29Speaker 2: Agnifilo responds, I just think we should trust him.
- 38:36Speaker 1: He's not gonna flee. He just deserves a chance.
- 38:41Speaker 8: Lynn, Please let us all get off this dirty diddy,
- 38:45Speaker 8: degenerate merry garround that we're all on. How dare that lawyer?
- 38:49Speaker 8: How dare he? He's got a wife, he's got a daughter.
- 38:52Speaker 8: I believe he's got sisters, a mother, talk like this
- 38:55Speaker 8: violence is violence?
- 38:57Speaker 1: Trust him.
- 38:58Speaker 8: We have seen everything to the contrary, including video evidence
- 39:03Speaker 8: of Cassie being beaten. How much more do we need?
- 39:06Speaker 8: This goes back to this is one of the worst
- 39:09Speaker 8: days here at the Warriors to have all of this video,
- 39:13Speaker 8: to hear the way they're talking about victims. Trust him.
- 39:17Speaker 8: Trust him. There's no way anybody should trust him. I'm
- 39:21Speaker 8: here in New York City and Rob Shooter's correct. We've
- 39:23Speaker 8: got these dirty Diddy disciples running around. People should be
- 39:26Speaker 8: in fear of this guy. But that brings me to
- 39:29Speaker 8: how does he get away with all of this for decades?
- 39:32Speaker 1: What about the victims that.

- 39:37Speaker 8: giving out phone numbers, resources, Come stay with me if
- 39:40Speaker 8: you don't want to be alone. What a slap in
- 39:42Speaker 8: the face today to all of these victims, survivors of
- 39:47Speaker 8: any kind of sexual abuse. And you know what, this
- 39:50Speaker 8: is the problem with sex trafficking. Nobody, I'm a broken record.
- 39:54Speaker 8: Nobody understands it. Nobody understands what forced for coersion. Nobody
- 39:58Speaker 8: understands coersion. And you know what, it is time we
- 40:02Speaker 8: change it up. But this is a travesty. What a
- 40:04Speaker 8: slap in everybody's face.
- 40:06Speaker 2: Sean comes, goes to jail, split verdict, not guilty, en
- 40:11Speaker 2: Rico not guilty on two counts of sex trafficking. Guilty

- 40:50Speaker 1: The bad guy walks?
- 40:51Speaker 9: Oh?
- 40:52Speaker 5: My god, Nancy, this brought back. This brought back such
- 40:55Speaker 5: a memory of a guy.
- 40:56Speaker 10: Who was leaning over the balcony holding two kilas.
- 40:59Speaker 5: Of cocaine in a CBS bag, getting ready to drop
- 41:03Speaker 5: it on the floor because the Feds were knocking on
- 41:06Speaker 5: the front door, and I was covering the back door,
- 41:08Speaker 5: and he dropped it and I got it, and I
- 41:11Speaker 5: I d'ed him, and we went to the jury and
- 41:13Speaker 5: the jury found him not guilty when me, as the
- 41:17Speaker 5: Federal DEA Drug agent, watched him drop that bag. And
- 41:21Speaker 5: you know why, Nancy, because juries are so unpredictable.
- 41:26Speaker 10: You know why we didn't pull his DNA off the bag.
- 41:29Speaker 10: But I watched him. I watched him.
- 41:31Speaker 5: Drop those kilos of cocaine out of the ground.
- 41:34Speaker 10: These juries have a mind of their own.
- 41:36Speaker 1: I know how that must have felt.
- 41:39Speaker 10: Shame.
- 41:40Speaker 1: And the thing is, this is a violent crime.

- 41:48Speaker 2: Comes raised his hand trying to speak to the judge
- 41:51Speaker 2: while Agniffolo was arguing, the judge acting like he didn't
- 41:54Speaker 2: even see him. The judge did note the wide divergence
- 41:57Speaker 2: between what the state wants to sentencing and what the
- 42:00Speaker 2: defense wants a sentencing, but hearing what the judge said,
- 42:04Speaker 2: the judge can't just erase from his mind what he
- 42:07Speaker 2: saw on the Cassie beat down video. He cannot erase
- 42:10Speaker 2: from his mind what the victim said on the stand.
- 42:14Speaker 2: Comes his lawyers appealed his conviction, demanding a federal appeals
- 42:18Speaker 2: court overrule the decision and give him immediate release, calling
- 42:24Speaker 2: his former girlfriends Cassie Ventira and Jane who went anonymous
- 42:30Speaker 2: on the carpet. He denied all claims, but a jury disagreed. Well,
- 42:36Speaker 2: Shawn Comes, this release date has been well, Shawncambs release
