Speaker 1: Claiming the sex attack and sex trafficking charges against him
0:16
Speaker 1: are racist? That as a bombshell, the case against jay

Speaker 1: Z has been dropped? Does that bode well for Shawn Combs?
0:28
Speaker 1: Will his case be dropped next? I'm Nancy Grace, this
0:32
Speaker 1: is Crime Stories. Thank you for being with us.
0:35
Speaker 2: In a shocking twist, a p Diddy and jay Z
0:38
Speaker 2: accuser drops a bombshell lawsuit after accusing the infamous rappers
0:42
Speaker 2: of sexual assault?
0:45
Speaker 1: Is that the beginning of the Domino trail falling? A
0:49
Speaker 1: main charge against jay Z has just been dropped with
0:54
Speaker 1: prejudiced but first in a new defense, Shawn Combs aka
1:00
Speaker 1: A Diddy aka Puff Daddy aka Puff aka Puffy aka
1:06
Speaker 1: love It Goes On and On is claiming he is
1:11
Speaker 1: the victim, not all the women that are claiming he
1:14
Speaker 1: raped them and video them being raped in his Freak
1:18
Speaker 1: Cough videos. But now he is the victim according to him.
1:24
Speaker 1: Sean Combs claiming that he is being targeted, that he
1:29
Speaker 1: is being singled out by a racist statute. Listen.
1:34
Speaker 3: Comb's attorneys argue that the statute has only been used
1:38
Speaker 3: to prosecute people of color, writing that the law has
1:41
Speaker 3: a long and troubling history as a statute with racist origins,
1:45
Speaker 3: used to target black men and supposedly protect white women
1:48
Speaker 3: from them, and quote what was racist in its inception
1:53
Speaker 3: has often been racist.
1:54
Speaker 1: In its operation.
1:55
Speaker 3: They further claim that using escorts is widely accepted in
1:59
Speaker 3: America culture today and Combs is being prosecuted for conduct
2:03
Speaker 3: that regularly goes unpunished for white men.
2:06
Speaker 1: Has hey lost his mind to doctor Bethany Marshall joining
2:13
Speaker 1: us for now, psychoanalyst joining us out of the LA jurisdiction,
2:16
Speaker 1: author of a deal breaker and you can see her
2:20
Speaker 1: now on Peacock. Wait, this is completely bass Ackwards. Sean
2:25
Speaker 1: Combs is claiming he's the victim of who oh the government,
2:29
Speaker 1: the big bad government. Explain, you know, Nancy, haven't you
2:34
Speaker 1: taught your children.
2:35
Speaker 4: Since the time they were infants toddlers to take responsibility
2:39
Speaker 4: when they do something wrong, they hit their sister.
2:42
Speaker 1: They have to say I'm sorry.
2:44
Speaker 4: It's such a basic part of being human and being
2:47
Speaker 4: in society and being connected and engaged is that when
2:50
Speaker 4: we do something to hurt other people, we talk to it,
2:54
Speaker 4: we acknowledge it. He is now blaming the victims, blaming
2:59
Speaker 4: the government, blaming everybody else, and this actually makes him
3:03
Speaker 4: look like more of a predator. I don't think this
3:05
Speaker 4: is going to play well in court, Nancy. These jurors
3:08
Speaker 4: are going to want to know that he has some remars.
3:11
Speaker 4: Otherwise they're not going to let him out of prison ever, ever, ever,
3:14
Speaker 4: in unleasham on society.
3:16
Speaker 1: Okay, you know this is reminding me of doctor Bethany.
3:19
Speaker 1: Is reminding me of a guy that you and I
3:23
Speaker 1: have investigated and covered. His name is Stefan Stearns. He
3:28
Speaker 1: is the boyfriend of a mom whose daughter just turned thirteen,
3:32
Speaker 1: and he, according to prosecutors, has been full on raping
3:36
Speaker 1: her for years in the mother's home. You know what
3:40
Speaker 1: his defense is, she started it. The nine year old
3:44
Speaker 1: girls started it. I mean, doctor Bethany Marshall. Instead of
3:48
Speaker 1: attacking the claims against him, he's claiming that he is
3:52
Speaker 1: the victim. Sean Combs is claiming he is the victim
3:56
Speaker 1: of a racist statute. That statute is to stop sex trafficking.
4:00
Speaker 1: So how does he turn into the victim, Doctor Bethany.
4:03
Speaker 4: You know, it shows lack of respect for the entire
4:06
Speaker 4: judicial system. It shows a lack of perspective and objectivity
4:10
Speaker 4: about how he's coming across to other people in attacking
4:14
Speaker 4: our government. He's being very unsympathetic to help other people
4:18
Speaker 4: see him. And you know, Nancy, this idea of she
4:21
Speaker 4: made me do it? Predators do this. They relegate blame
4:26
Speaker 4: to the victim rather than taking the responsibility themselves. This
4:29
Speaker 4: is the especially pedophiles. It's their predator playbooks. She made
4:34
Speaker 4: me do it, He made me do it. That little
4:35
Speaker 4: girl was so attractive. I just had to take her
4:38
Speaker 4: clothes off and rape her. That woman was drunk at
4:42
Speaker 4: my party and she was standing there naked with all
4:45
Speaker 4: those mirrors all around. What did she think I was
4:48
Speaker 4: going to do? Never mind the p did he is
4:50
Speaker 4: the one who installed the mirrors.
4:52
Speaker 1: To Rob Sheeter joining Me, host of Naughty but Nice
4:55
Speaker 1: podcasts and former publicist for Sean Comes, He's the author
4:59
Speaker 1: of Before Word Answer, Rob, this is a pr disaster
5:06
Speaker 1: as far as I'm concerned. Of course, I look at
5:07
Speaker 1: things differently by the letter of the law. To turn
5:10
Speaker 1: around and claim Sean Combs is claiming he's the victim.
5:14
Speaker 1: You worked for him. Remember you told me he ordered
5:16
Speaker 1: cheesecake at three am and expected some like you to
5:20
Speaker 1: run out and get it, and they did. That guy
5:23
Speaker 1: is the victim in this scenario.
5:24
Speaker 5: Yeah, I agree with you. This is a ridiculous response. However,
5:28
Speaker 5: it's not a surprising response at least to me having
5:32
Speaker 5: worked with Puffy. Puffy always manages to make himself the
5:36
Speaker 5: center of everything, and he's done that once again here
5:40
Speaker 5: being the victim. I'm not sure how it's going to
5:42
Speaker 5: play out, but I do know when you've got very
5:45
Speaker 5: few options, when it looks as if you are guilty here,
5:50
Speaker 5: you're going.
5:50
Speaker 1: To throw everything at the wall.
5:53
Speaker 5: So I predict if this doesn't stick, we'll hear more
5:56
Speaker 5: crazy explanations. But what we won't hear is that he
6:00
Speaker 5: did it. He won't take any responsibility for this. He's
6:02
Speaker 5: gone away with this, Nancy, for a really long time.
6:05
Speaker 5: And you know he's done things before when I worked
6:07
Speaker 5: with him that I thought was just a bad pr
6:10
Speaker 5: response and I ultimately turned out to be wrong. He's
6:14
Speaker 5: really really good getting attention of changing the message. He's
6:18
Speaker 5: done it for over twenty years and so far, Nancy,
6:22
Speaker 5: it's worked out for him.
6:23
Speaker 1: Joining me right now. In addition to Rob Shooter and
6:26
Speaker 1: doctor Bethany Marshall, lin Shaw is joining us, founder and
6:30
Speaker 1: executive director of Lynn's Warriors, a nonprofit they do this
6:35
Speaker 1: for free, dedicated to eradicating sex trafficking. Lynn thank you
6:40
Speaker 1: for being with us. What he is relying on and
6:42
Speaker 1: claiming that he is being singled out that he is
6:46
Speaker 1: the victim, is the so called Man Act. I remember
6:51
Speaker 1: studying it in first year law school, but it was
6:53
Speaker 1: very rarely used. But then quickly it became the basis
7:01
Speaker 1: for conspiracy prosecutions such as the one here. So in
7:07
Speaker 1: recent years, say the last twenty years, it has been used frequently.
7:11
Speaker 1: And what the Man is about is to stop the
7:15
Speaker 1: transportation of women across state lines for human sex trafficking.
7:22
Speaker 1: He is claiming Linshaw, that he is the victim, that
7:27
Speaker 1: the law is racist.
7:30
Speaker 6: Nancy, Nancy, let me tell you right now, I am
7:33
Speaker 6: standing in Brooklyn, New York, down the street from the
7:37
Speaker 6: Metropolitan Detention Center. It is taking all my strength to
7:40
Speaker 6: hold back from walking down there to slap some sense
7:43
Speaker 6: into some people. I am here with victims of abuse
7:47
Speaker 6: of rape. We are seeking safe housing for these people
7:51
Speaker 6: domestic violence. We are fighting for this the Man Act
7:56
Speaker 6: the way this case will stick. And I have always
7:58
Speaker 6: maintained is that we have to have the Man Act
8:01
Speaker 6: enforced sex trafficking over state lines to make all charges stick,
8:06
Speaker 6: and then we have to go down that hole of miners.
8:10
Speaker 6: I still maintain we're not covering that enough, We're not
8:13
Speaker 6: digging into that enough. But while I stand here knowing
8:17
Speaker 6: down the street that dirty ditty is getting three square
8:20
Speaker 6: meals and I'm standing here with survivors, we're baking just
8:24
Speaker 6: to have juice and milk and a sandwich once a day.
8:27
Speaker 6: Covered is unbelievable as far as racist with that nonsense,
8:31
Speaker 6: And Rob said it, he's very good. It's spinning and
8:33
Speaker 6: being at the forefront and gaining attention, and everybody's covering it.
8:37
Speaker 6: But you know what, we're covering the reality, and it's
8:40
Speaker 6: about victims and supporting survivors. And you know what, he
8:43
Speaker 6: can't claim racist because we've got somebody like a Harvey
8:46
Speaker 6: Weinstein sitting in prison, probably dying in prison. So that
8:50
Speaker 6: just throw that right out the window.
8:52
Speaker 1: All right. You know what, I'm glad you brought him
8:54
Speaker 1: up because Combs is arguing he's being singled out because
8:59
Speaker 1: of a race. This statute that has been on the
9:02
Speaker 1: books for decades, but now somehow it's all about Diddy.
9:07
Speaker 1: There have been plenty of white guys and white women
9:12
Speaker 1: prosecuted under the Man Act. Let me just start with
9:17
Speaker 1: a real legal term, jackass Keith Rnier.
9:23
Speaker 7: In their latest filing Combs Defense Rights. There has never
9:26
Speaker 7: been a similar rico prosecution. No white person has ever
9:30
Speaker 7: been the target of a remotely similar case. However, Keith Rnier,
9:35
Speaker 7: the founder of personal development club Nexium that really served
9:39
Speaker 7: as a recruitment tool for the sex cult DOS, was
9:42
Speaker 7: convicted of both sex trafficking and racketeering about six years ago.
9:47
Speaker 7: Gilaine Maxwell was also found guilty of violating the Man Act.
9:51
Speaker 1: Even more recently, when I said that Keith Renier was
9:56
Speaker 1: technical legal term a jackass, not only did he sex
10:01
Speaker 1: traffic women, he actually branded them, branded them, you know,
10:07
Speaker 1: with a hot iron.
10:10
Speaker 8: Listen, I think doing the actual brand in an orderly passion,
10:14
Speaker 8: each of the seven strokes having a certain ritualization. Each
10:20
Speaker 8: of the strokes has something that's said and may be
10:25
Speaker 8: repeated after the stroke is done. The person who's being
10:31
Speaker 8: branded should be completely nude. It also, of course, videoing
10:35
Speaker 8: it and videoing it from different angles or whatever gives collateral,
10:39
Speaker 8: so probably should be a more vulnerable position be being
10:43
Speaker 8: held at the side of the table, hand's probably above
10:46
Speaker 8: the head, being held almost like tied down, like a
10:48
Speaker 8: sacrificial whatever. And the person should ask to be branded,
10:52
Speaker 8: should say, please brand me. It would be an honor
10:55
Speaker 8: or something like that, an honor I want to wear
10:57
Speaker 8: for the rest of my life.
10:58
Speaker 1: Okay, Anthony, help me. Please. Did you hear Keith Rnier,
11:05
Speaker 1: the white guy that was prosecuted for sex trafficking. Did
11:08
Speaker 1: you hear him describing the branding process?
11:10
Speaker 4: Nancy, I don't even know where to begin with that.
11:12
Speaker 4: First of all, he's ritualizing a perversion, right, this is
11:16
Speaker 4: a perversion wanting to brand women. He you know, please
11:20
Speaker 4: please will you brand me? That statement does do the
11:23
Speaker 4: two things. One is, it's a legal defense right if
11:27
Speaker 4: he says that, if they say he did it against
11:29
Speaker 4: their will. But secondly, it makes him feel so superior
11:32
Speaker 4: in charge, as if he's dominating them in the cameras
11:35
Speaker 4: from every angle.
11:36
Speaker 1: Nancy.
11:37
Speaker 4: That sounds like p Diddy. That sounds like that big
11:40
Speaker 4: party room where he put the mirrors on the walls
11:43
Speaker 4: and the floors and the ceilings so he could see
11:46
Speaker 4: from every angle.
11:48
Speaker 1: Also shows two purposes.
11:51
Speaker 4: Sexual excitement and putting the victims in humiliating situations so
11:56
Speaker 4: that you have ammunition against them, you.
11:59
Speaker 1: Know, to Bethany, I really don't know how you help
12:02
Speaker 1: patience if you can't speak plainly when you say see
12:07
Speaker 1: and you do the little quoties. I've been guilty of that.
12:10
Speaker 1: But when you say see from every position, you mean
12:14
Speaker 1: close up shots of the ladies vaginas and anuses as
12:17
Speaker 1: they're being raped. I mean I had to learn that
12:20
Speaker 1: with Jerry's you and I almost stuttered the first time
12:25
Speaker 1: I had to curse and say the P word and
12:27
Speaker 1: the C word and the F word and the blah
12:29
Speaker 1: blah blah word when I would be quoting defendants and
12:33
Speaker 1: what they said. I got over it because it doesn't matter.
12:37
Speaker 1: What matters is what happened to these victims. And when
12:41
Speaker 1: I hear Keith Ranier talking about what he did, You're right,
12:47
Speaker 1: the comparisons to what Sean Comes allegedly did to his
12:51
Speaker 1: victims is exactly correct. The videoing them, the having them
12:58
Speaker 1: in a submissive position, an embarrassing position, making them humiliated,
13:05
Speaker 1: making them humiliate themselves, according to Rainier, But he was
13:10
Speaker 1: prosecuted under the same statute that Combs is now whining
13:15
Speaker 1: about listen.
13:17
Speaker 9: With these convictions. Renier, he stands, is convicted of racketeering,
13:23
Speaker 9: sex trafficking, and related crimes.
13:26
Speaker 1: Over the last seven weeks.
13:29
Speaker 9: This trial has revealed that Renieri, who portrayed himself as
13:35
Speaker 9: a savant and a genius, was in fact a massive manipulator,
13:42
Speaker 9: a con man, and the crime boss of a cult
13:46
Speaker 9: like organization involved in sex trafficking, child pornography, extortion, compelled abortions, branding,
13:57
Speaker 9: degradation and his crimes and the crimes are just co
14:04
Speaker 9: conspirators ruined marriages, careers, fortunes and lives to.
14:13
Speaker 1: Lynn Shaw joining us out of Manhattan, founder director Lyn's Warriors,
14:17
Speaker 1: dedicated to eradicating human sex trafficking. Lynn same thing here.
14:23
Speaker 1: Rainier portrayed himself as a genius, as did he portray
14:29
Speaker 1: himself as a musical genius. That is how they convince
14:34
Speaker 1: victims to go along with them, the way they portray themselves.
14:39
Speaker 1: But now comes claiming he is the victim of a
14:43
Speaker 1: racist statute.
14:44
Speaker 10: You know, Nancy, They always, always, always very cleverly, these exploiters,
14:50
Speaker 10: They just flip the book. They are describing themselves as
14:54
Speaker 10: these geniuses or these masters of the universe.
14:58
Speaker 6: Or they're going to make somebody a are, or they're
15:00
Speaker 6: going to provide them.
15:02
Speaker 1: With beautiful clothes and jewelry.
15:04
Speaker 6: All we're going to give you a career. I tell you,
15:07
Speaker 6: when anybody hears that, you run the other way. They
15:11
Speaker 6: are exploiting vulnerable people. All of these men so far
15:15
Speaker 6: we've talked about all have the same, the same traits.
15:19
Speaker 6: They take advantage of vulnerable people. They sell them a
15:23
Speaker 6: bill of goods. They are the ultimate con artists, praying,
15:27
Speaker 6: praying upon victims, praying, brainwashing almost and you know what enough,
15:33
Speaker 6: not on our watch, not on anybody's watch, Wake up everybody.
15:45
Speaker 2: Sean Puffy Combs asked for the court to dismiss federal
15:49
Speaker 2: charges arguing racist origin, exclaiming he is unfairly being prosecuted
15:54
Speaker 2: as a black man.
15:58
Speaker 1: That's right. Although legion of men and women have been
16:02
Speaker 1: prosecuted under the Man Act, white and black, Combs is
16:06
Speaker 1: now whining he is the victim of this statute, the
16:12
Speaker 1: Man Act. To Wendy Patrick joining me, veteran California prosecutor,
16:19
Speaker 1: president and founder of Black Swan Verdicts, author of multiple books,
16:24
Speaker 1: and star of Today with Doctor Wendy on k C
16:27
Speaker 1: b Q. That typically doesn't work in court when you
16:32
Speaker 1: try to argue to a jury.
16:34
Speaker 11: It isn't fair, right, especially when it's a statement that's
16:38
Speaker 11: not only ignorant but tone deaf. Exploiting vulnerability is a
16:42
Speaker 11: character flaw that really permeates these kinds of cases we've
16:46
Speaker 11: been discussing, all of whom have been prosecuted under the
16:49
Speaker 11: exact same statute the Man Act. So to come out
16:53
Speaker 11: and say something just absolutely factually wrong illustrates what my
16:58
Speaker 11: colleagues and I'll put it together and say, patterns make
17:02
Speaker 11: the predator. With somebody like Sean Colmes, it is this
17:05
Speaker 11: pattern of getting away with exploiting vulnerability for years. You
17:10
Speaker 11: gave the example of sending somebody out in the middle
17:13
Speaker 11: of the night for cheesecake, inviting over women and setting
17:16
Speaker 11: up this elaborate stage design to humiliate and pervert the
17:20
Speaker 11: sex acts that went on there. That's what the testimony
17:23
Speaker 11: is going to be, and then claiming you're being targeted
17:26
Speaker 11: because of demographics instead of because of the deeds that
17:29
Speaker 11: we're done.
17:30
Speaker 4: This is the type of thing that is not going to.
17:32
Speaker 11: As are calling rob no doubt can predict, is not
17:36
Speaker 11: going to be favorable in the press and not favorable
17:38
Speaker 11: to a jury either.
17:39
Speaker 4: Yeah.
17:40
Speaker 1: Rob Sheeter joining me, pr Guru, host of Noughty but
17:43
Speaker 1: Nice podcasts, and former publicist four comes, author of the
17:48
Speaker 1: four word answer. This is not going to hold up
17:51
Speaker 1: in a court of law. But I want to remind you,
17:54
Speaker 1: Rob Shooter, and then I've got a few questions for
17:56
Speaker 1: you about your former client. Sean comes in. Many many defendants,
18:02
Speaker 1: criminal defendants charged under the Man Act, men and women.
18:06
Speaker 1: I'm referring specifically to Julaine Maxwell, Rob Shooter. Why does
18:12
Speaker 1: did he think he's so special? All of these people,
18:16
Speaker 1: including Julainne Maxwell, were prosecuted under the Man Act. So
18:22
Speaker 1: is this more of there? She is behind bars right there?
18:26
Speaker 1: So is this more of his delusions of grandeur that
18:30
Speaker 1: somehow he's special and he's being persecuted. Is it a
18:34
Speaker 1: grand delusions of grandeur or is it a martyr complex?
18:37
Speaker 5: I think it's a little bit of both here, Nancy.
18:39
Speaker 5: I think the delusions of grandeur, which what we would
18:43
Speaker 5: call delusions, did he would call a reality. This is
18:47
Speaker 5: somebody who has made almost a billion dollars. This is
18:51
Speaker 5: somebody who has been up to yet really really successful,
18:54
Speaker 5: believing in their own hype, and so we can't expect,
18:58
Speaker 5: even sitting in a in cell for that attitude to change.
19:03
Speaker 5: He thinks he's special. He always has thought he's special.
19:06
Speaker 5: And it's really important for us to remind everybody that
19:11
Speaker 5: this statue has been applied to black, white male female
19:16
Speaker 5: because he's going to cherry pick the evidence here and
19:19
Speaker 5: don't forget Nancy. He has a really loud microphone. He's
19:24
Speaker 5: a big star, and there's a certain amount of his
19:28
Speaker 5: base who are going to believe what he is saying
19:32
Speaker 5: to It's our job to make sure we put that
19:34
Speaker 5: record right.
19:35
Speaker 1: What is an example, Rob Shooter of his delusions of
19:39
Speaker 1: grandeur other than ordering cheesecake at three am and getting it?
19:44
Speaker 1: I mean, somebody to wake up hear his request, go out,
19:48
Speaker 1: get in a car and drive around to find cheesecake,
19:52
Speaker 1: get it and bring it back at three a m.
19:56
Speaker 5: Delusions of grandeur. Many many other examples I have too
19:59
Speaker 5: with him. He would often turn up at fashion shows
20:02
Speaker 5: that he wasn't invited to in New York City and
20:05
Speaker 5: just sit down on the front row and get this Nancy.
20:07
Speaker 5: He wasn't kicked act. He got away with it. And
20:10
Speaker 5: so the more you get away with the more you
20:14
Speaker 5: believe you are bullet proof. I believe Duty thinks he
20:18
Speaker 5: can get away with this, and he will say and
20:21
Speaker 5: do whatever it takes to make that happen.
20:23
Speaker 1: As it relates to a white female prosecuted under the
20:29
Speaker 1: Man Act for sex trafficking children, Listen, Maxwell and.
20:33
Speaker 12: Epstein were to generally so entastly mind to travel to
20:38
Speaker 12: epstein residency his.
20:40
Speaker 13: Residency in New York City from the uper East Side, as.
20:44
Speaker 8: Well as how.
20:47
Speaker 12: And Sandy Day, some of the ass would us.
20:52
Speaker 11: All into the place Maxwell's residents in London?
20:56
Speaker 1: Did you hear that Bill Wolfe joining me forward to
20:59
Speaker 1: take to Fear County, Virginia, in charge of Human Trafficking
21:02
Speaker 1: Task Force and author of Eradicating Human Trafficking, A Transformative
21:08
Speaker 1: Approach to Collective Impact. Did you hear all the locations
21:14
Speaker 1: where women and girls, young girls were trafficked from London,
21:20
Speaker 1: Palm Beach, Manhattan, Santa Fe, even Islands overseas sex trafficked,
21:29
Speaker 1: transporting women and girls for the purpose of illegal sex acts.
21:34
Speaker 14: Same thing here, Yeah, I can tell you, Nancy, from
21:37
Speaker 14: my experience as a Federal Task Force officer, I've locked
21:40
Speaker 14: up a lot of criminals for trafficking white, black male female.
21:46
Speaker 14: It really doesn't matter. This is a crime that does
21:48
Speaker 14: not discriminate. And you know, I have to tell you,
21:51
Speaker 14: you know, p Didty's not special. These are all excuses
21:54
Speaker 14: that I've heard in so many of the cases that
21:56
Speaker 14: I've worked in, so many interviews with traffickers post rest.
22:00
Speaker 14: These are all the same things that we hear over
22:02
Speaker 14: and over, driven by their narcissistic behaviors. So I hate
22:06
Speaker 14: to tell you, but he's not special in these claims.
22:09
Speaker 14: It's what they all say, and it's all nonsense.
22:12
Speaker 1: Rob Shooter, you worked for him, you're his pr guru.
22:16
Speaker 1: You made him think he's special.
22:18
Speaker 5: I wouldn't put that entirely on me, Nancy. I did
22:21
Speaker 5: work with him twenty years ago he was starting out
22:23
Speaker 5: in the business. But even then, even then, Nancy, he
22:26
Speaker 5: believed he was special. And let me just disagree a
22:28
Speaker 5: little bit with your guest. I do believe he is
22:30
Speaker 5: special because he keeps getting away with it, and so
22:34
Speaker 5: until he is held accountable, he's not going to stop.
22:38
Speaker 5: And for twenty thirty years, he's been at the top
22:40
Speaker 5: of the game here in New York, maybe even around
22:43
Speaker 5: the world. And so don't dismiss this. I know it's
22:46
Speaker 5: easy for all of us here to think this is
22:49
Speaker 5: all nonsense. He's really really good at this. I would
22:53
Speaker 5: not be at all surprised if he doesn't convince people
22:57
Speaker 5: that this is a racist act and he is the victim.
23:00
Speaker 5: That's how good he is.
23:02
Speaker 1: You know what, You've got a point, Rob Shooter Sean
23:05
Speaker 1: Diddy Combs is actually moving to have federal charges dismissed,
23:11
Speaker 1: claiming the statue the black and white letter of the law,
23:16
Speaker 1: the Man Act is racist and targeting of all people.
23:21
Speaker 2: Shawn Combs, the infamous rapper and disgrace music mobile, isn't
23:27
Speaker 2: too happy about the federal charges coming his way.
23:30
Speaker 4: P did.
23:31
Speaker 2: He claims racism, saying he is being prosecuted for conduct
23:35
Speaker 2: that regularly goes unpunished for white men.
23:39
Speaker 1: That's right, Shawn Combs, You're the victim, not the dozens
23:45
Speaker 1: and dozens of women that claim you rape them on
23:49
Speaker 1: video after knocking them out with drugs and their drinks. Yeah,
23:54
Speaker 1: it's all about you. Well, let me jog your memory,
23:58
Speaker 1: Shaw Combs about another famous white dude. This is now
24:02
Speaker 1: doing hard jail time. What do we have to do?
24:05
Speaker 5: I've been I haven't going to take a shower. You
24:07
Speaker 5: sit there and have to drink community water.
24:09
Speaker 1: Drink? Can I stay on the bar?
24:11
Speaker 11: No?
24:12
Speaker 13: You must, please, I don't want.
24:15
Speaker 15: I'm not doing anything.
24:19
Speaker 10: I'm sorry yesterday was a kind of aggressive for I
24:23
Speaker 10: need to know a person.
24:24
Speaker 1: I want to think.
24:27
Speaker 5: Please, I swear I won't just let me.
24:29
Speaker 10: Don't embarrass me in the hotel.
24:30
Speaker 13: I'm here all the time.
24:32
Speaker 1: Promise, please sit there, please one minute? Athlease. I don't
24:38
Speaker 1: want to do something.
24:38
Speaker 15: I don't want to go to community.
24:41
Speaker 4: Listen to me.
24:41
Speaker 16: I want to go downstairs, nothing to do.
24:43
Speaker 5: And you'll never see me after this and get to that.
24:46
Speaker 1: Is an audio tape of the media mogul Harvey Weinstain
24:54
Speaker 1: forcing a young woman Batlana into an undesired sex act
25:03
Speaker 1: to doctor Bethany Marshall. I mean, when you hear the
25:08
Speaker 1: way he uses his power, his money, his influence to
25:14
Speaker 1: coerce someone into sex, it's heartbreaking. And nobody believed her,
25:20
Speaker 1: remember not you and I of course, but no one
25:24
Speaker 1: believed her until someone finally came forward against Weinstein and
25:31
Speaker 1: then this audio emerged. Do you hear her saying no, no, no,
25:35
Speaker 1: and he's like, don't embarrass me. All that power and wealth.
25:40
Speaker 1: Prestige is used to coerce her, and he also physically
25:44
Speaker 1: coerced her.
25:44
Speaker 4: In case anybody has a doubt in their mind about
25:48
Speaker 4: what rape is about, this underscores the fact that rape
25:53
Speaker 4: is about power. It's not about sexual excitement. It's primarily
25:57
Speaker 4: about power. He's threatening her into me dating her, not
26:00
Speaker 4: listening to her, trying to get her to bend to
26:03
Speaker 4: his will. Do you know, Nancy, that prison interviews and
26:06
Speaker 4: research really suggests the fact that both victim and perpetrator
26:11
Speaker 4: alike report little to no sexual pleasure as a part
26:15
Speaker 4: of a rape experience, even the perpetrator. But what they
26:18
Speaker 4: do talk about is contempt towards the victim, which is
26:22
Speaker 4: what we're seeing with Sean Ditty Combs. The other thing is,
26:25
Speaker 4: you know, you can fool some of the people some
26:27
Speaker 4: of the time, you can't fool all of the people
26:29
Speaker 4: all of the time. In the case of Sean Ditty,
26:31
Speaker 4: he's doing to the government what he tried to do
26:34
Speaker 4: to the victims. The government is not a girl or
26:37
Speaker 4: an underage mail escort. The government is a collective who
26:41
Speaker 4: sees right through this. So I'm kind of enjoying him
26:44
Speaker 4: coming up against the public because or the government. Excuse me,
26:48
Speaker 4: because I think that this is going to be his
26:50
Speaker 4: first time.
26:51
Speaker 1: They can't get away with something. It's going to be
26:53
Speaker 1: kind of nice to see. I'm gonna get a box
26:56
Speaker 1: of popcorn. Guys. We're responding to Sean Combe's claim that
27:03
Speaker 1: he is the victim, that he is being unfairly prosecuted
27:08
Speaker 1: more of his paranoia. He claims that he is being
27:13
Speaker 1: subjected to a racist statute. But there have been many,
27:18
Speaker 1: many white men and women prosecuted for sex trafficking and
27:23
Speaker 1: rape under the Man Act. Now I want you to
27:26
Speaker 1: hear more of Harvey Weinstein, the multi millionaire brought down
27:33
Speaker 1: He's serving twenty three years behind bars for this. Listen.
27:37
Speaker 1: If you embarrass me in this litter, no embarrassing you.
27:40
Speaker 4: It's just that I don't feel comfortable.
27:42
Speaker 5: I mean, you don't have a favor of meautiful peeze.
27:44
Speaker 1: I'm not going to do anything.
27:46
Speaker 15: I swear my children please come in everything.
27:49
Speaker 5: I'm a famous guy.
27:51
Speaker 1: Very uncomfortable.
27:52
Speaker 6: He is coming now and one minute and if you
27:54
Speaker 6: want to.
27:55
Speaker 17: Leave, when the guy comes in my back, hey, you
27:57
Speaker 17: touch my priez please, I'm.
27:59
Speaker 6: Sorry, just right?
28:01
Speaker 5: Are you that?
28:02
Speaker 4: Yes?
28:02
Speaker 5: I will never do another thing for five minutes.
28:06
Speaker 10: Don't move your friendship with me for five minutes.
28:09
Speaker 1: I know, thanks so much for you.
28:13
Speaker 15: Please, you're making a big scene here family.
28:15
Speaker 8: But I want to know.
28:17
Speaker 1: Why soon. You don't want her to make a big scene,
28:20
Speaker 1: then don't grope her breast. Just a suggestion. You can
28:24
Speaker 1: think about that for the next twenty three years. And
28:27
Speaker 1: of course it seems like Sean Combs, now being prosecuted
28:31
Speaker 1: for six trafficking, took a page out of the book
28:34
Speaker 1: of another famous star, Cosby Listen.
28:38
Speaker 15: Years of allegations against Bill Cosby were dismissed and accusers
28:41
Speaker 15: were ignored until twenty fourteen, when multiple allegations were made
28:45
Speaker 15: against him. Accused by over sixty women, it was the
28:48
Speaker 15: case of Andrea Constan to landed him in jail. Investigated
28:52
Speaker 15: in two thousand and five, Andrew Constant claimed she had
28:55
Speaker 15: become friends with Cosby in her position with the Temple
28:57
Speaker 15: women's basketball program. One evening, after being out drinking with friends,
29:01
Speaker 15: she went to Cosby's home in a suburb of Philadelphia,
29:04
Speaker 15: and after complaining of stress, Cosby gave her three blue
29:07
Speaker 15: pills to help her relax. The pills were Benadrill and
29:11
Speaker 15: constant became semi conscious and unable to move to doctor.
29:15
Speaker 1: Bethany Marshall joining us. Same thing. You invite someone over
29:20
Speaker 1: for a seemingly innocent get together. In Cosby's case, it
29:23
Speaker 1: was always to help the person with their career, and
29:26
Speaker 1: then they would wake up with their clothes all twisted up,
29:29
Speaker 1: feeling like they've been hitting the head with their vagina herding.
29:32
Speaker 1: Same thing with allegations against Sean Combs, who's now claiming
29:36
Speaker 1: he is the victim. Same exact thing.
29:41
Speaker 4: Dr Bethany Nancy is so fascinating to me as well
29:44
Speaker 4: that it's the exact same offending pattern. It's like as
29:47
Speaker 4: a part of these men's power and sexual fantasies, they
29:51
Speaker 4: work out something that they think is fail proof. Find
29:55
Speaker 4: a vulnerable woman, maybe someone underage, somebody who is through
30:00
Speaker 4: by your celebrity. Put them in a compromising position so
30:04
Speaker 4: they'll do whatever you want. They'll bend to your will,
30:06
Speaker 4: or they won't even remember what's going on. Take of
30:09
Speaker 4: the video so you can threaten them afterwards if they
30:12
Speaker 4: want to go to the police and make them feel
30:14
Speaker 4: like they are the perpetrator, or you have the video
30:18
Speaker 4: for your own sexual pleasure.
30:20
Speaker 1: For the rest of your life. It is so classic.
30:23
Speaker 1: The similarities don't end there between Sean Combs now claiming
30:28
Speaker 1: he's the victim to Cosby. As a matter of fact,
30:34
Speaker 1: take a listen to our friend doctor Phil interviewing a
30:38
Speaker 1: Cosby victim and see how similar the cases are. And
30:42
Speaker 1: Cosby did not complain that he was the victim. He
30:46
Speaker 1: never did say that, But listen.
30:48
Speaker 13: And I went up to his hotel and I was alone.
30:52
Speaker 13: He talked about, let me see what type of acting
30:54
Speaker 13: skills you have. I want you to improv. And as
30:58
Speaker 13: I tried to do improv, be fixed it drink and
31:01
Speaker 13: then he brought it to me.
31:02
Speaker 1: It was a brown.
31:02
Speaker 13: Liquid and it looked like a shot. I told him
31:05
Speaker 13: I didn't drink. He said that this was going to
31:07
Speaker 13: relax me so that the lines would flow out a
31:10
Speaker 13: lot easier.
31:11
Speaker 1: So I did drink it.
31:12
Speaker 13: He made a second drink and had me drink the
31:15
Speaker 13: second drink as well.
31:17
Speaker 1: From our friends at Doctor Phil. Crime Stories with Nancy
31:26
Speaker 1: Gray in Bombshell News, a major claim against jay Z,
31:37
Speaker 1: the cohort of Seawan Combs, has been dropped. Speculation rife
31:44
Speaker 1: that the same thing will happen with Shawn Combs's case,
31:48
Speaker 1: and this is what It's all about.
31:51
Speaker 15: Another shocking revelation in the scandal is Sean Diddy Combe's case,
31:54
Speaker 15: now officially including jay Z in a civil lawsuit Sean
31:59
Speaker 15: Dittycombs and jay Z standing cues of raping a thirteen
32:02
Speaker 15: year old girl at an after party for the two
32:04
Speaker 15: thousand MTV Video Music Awards. She is invited to an
32:07
Speaker 15: after party by a limo driver who claims to work
32:10
Speaker 15: for Combs. He tells her she fit, what did he
32:13
Speaker 15: was looking for?
32:14
Speaker 18: Jane Doe is handed in a non disclosure agreement to
32:16
Speaker 18: sign and a drink she believes is spiked. In minutes,
32:19
Speaker 18: she hears Ditty utter words she can still hear to
32:21
Speaker 18: this day. The plaintiff claims Combs approaches her with a
32:24
Speaker 18: crazed look in his eyes, telling her you are ready
32:27
Speaker 18: to party, words she can't forget. She accuses Combs of
32:31
Speaker 18: throwing her toward a wall, causing her to fall. She
32:33
Speaker 18: gets up and stumbles. Combs grabs her and throws her
32:36
Speaker 18: on the bed, and jay Z holds her down and
32:38
Speaker 18: faginally rapes her while Combs and another a list celebrity watch.
32:42
Speaker 17: The after party was held at a residence in New
32:44
Speaker 17: York City. The unnamed Jane Doe is seeking unspecified damages
32:49
Speaker 17: and illegal bombshell.
32:50
Speaker 1: That case has not only been dropped, it is dropped
32:55
Speaker 1: dismissed with prejudice. Now what that means, let's go straight
33:00
Speaker 1: out to Wendy Patrick, California prosecutor, is that the alleged
33:05
Speaker 1: victim in that case can never revive the charges. Now
33:09
Speaker 1: we see cases dropped a lot, and the state is
33:12
Speaker 1: given more time to build the case and then they
33:16
Speaker 1: can renew those charges. That's when the case is dropped
33:20
Speaker 1: without prejudice. This is a big deal in the legal
33:24
Speaker 1: world that the case against jay Z has been dropped
33:28
Speaker 1: with prejudice. He maintained from the get go he was
33:32
Speaker 1: innocent of that charge. What does it mean dropped dismissed
33:36
Speaker 1: with prejudice.
33:37
Speaker 11: Well, what it basically means legally, Nancy, is that they're
33:40
Speaker 11: going to be unable to revive those charges. But what
33:43
Speaker 11: it doesn't necessarily mean is that that is going to
33:46
Speaker 11: predict the future of any co defendants or any colleagues
33:49
Speaker 11: or associates that are involved in the conduct. You know,
33:51
Speaker 11: we see this all the time where you have somebody saying, well,
33:54
Speaker 11: I was charged with something similar to my cohort and
33:57
Speaker 11: crime here, and so his case has gone mine shouldn't
33:59
Speaker 11: be as well. Oh, without prejudice, it doesn't mean that
34:02
Speaker 11: at all. There's respective levels of liability and those decisions
34:06
Speaker 11: are made all of the time when you have different
34:08
Speaker 11: people involved in this type of conduct. But you are
34:11
Speaker 11: correct that this is one charge that cannot be revived
34:15
Speaker 11: by anybody due to the nature with which it was dismissed.
34:18
Speaker 1: And after this case is dropped to jay Z's benefit,
34:24
Speaker 1: speculation legal speculation that this could mark the beginning of
34:29
Speaker 1: Sean Combs's case being dropped one charge by the next.
34:35
Speaker 1: Jay Z speaks out.
34:36
Speaker 17: Sean Diddy Combs also celebrated the withdrawal of the allegations,
34:39
Speaker 17: his attorneys releasing a scathing statement slamming the accusers Attorney
34:43
Speaker 17: Tony Buzby quote, Today's complete dismissal without a settlement by
34:47
Speaker 17: the one eight hundred attorney is yet another confirmation that
34:50
Speaker 17: these lawsuits are built on falsehoods, not facts. We have
34:54
Speaker 17: seen case after case filed by individuals hiding behind anonymity,
34:58
Speaker 17: pushed forward by an tourney more focused on media headlines
35:02
Speaker 17: than legal merit. Colmbs is hopeful more of Busby's cases
35:06
Speaker 17: will fall apart, claiming there is no truth to them.
35:09
Speaker 1: Straight out to Crime online dot Com investigative reporter Sydney Sumner,
35:13
Speaker 1: jay Z stating that this case, this claim against him,
35:18
Speaker 1: cost him twenty million dollars and that it was time
35:24
Speaker 1: timed to embarrass his daughter, Blue Ivy at the MUFASA premiere.
35:33
Speaker 16: What can you tell me that's correct? And it's not
35:35
Speaker 16: just twenty million dollars, it's twenty million dollars per year.
35:39
Speaker 16: Jav says that his entertainment company Rock Nation lost a
35:43
Speaker 16: contract with a sporting event company and lost several shows
35:50
Speaker 16: over a period of years. That period is unspecified, but
35:55
Speaker 16: he's saying twenty million dollars per year, and the lawsuit
35:59
Speaker 16: was filed just a day before the premiere of his
36:03
Speaker 16: daughter's movie. Blue Ivy voiced Kiara in the new movie
36:06
Speaker 16: Mousafa the Lion came and there were whispers that Disney
36:10
Speaker 16: execs didn't want jay Z walking the red carpet with her,
36:13
Speaker 16: which was hugely embarrassing for him.
36:15
Speaker 1: Straight back out to doctor Bethany Marshall joining us, a
36:19
Speaker 1: psychoalyst and author of deal Breaker, Doctor Bethany I wonder
36:24
Speaker 1: if it's going to work in reverse. Once Cassie Ventura
36:29
Speaker 1: first spoke out, as we saw in Cosby, Angie Constant
36:34
Speaker 1: was the first one to speak out, and then suddenly
36:36
Speaker 1: there were criminal charges. Cassie Ventura spoke out and the
36:40
Speaker 1: video of her being beaten in the hotel corridor by
36:45
Speaker 1: Combs was leaked. Okay, then criminal charges immediately followed when
36:50
Speaker 1: the Feds really had their noses rubbed in it, and
36:52
Speaker 1: people said, hey, why aren't you doing anything? So I'm
36:56
Speaker 1: wondering if it's going to work and reverse Doctor Bethany
36:59
Speaker 1: that now we've got a victim's case, an alleged victim's case.
37:03
Speaker 1: He declared his innocence from the get go. Jay Z,
37:05
Speaker 1: did that case has been thrown out? Is it the
37:09
Speaker 1: beginning of a domino effect? There's been a lot of
37:12
Speaker 1: speculation about why the case was thrown out. Was the
37:16
Speaker 1: victim paid off? How did this suddenly end with prejudice?
37:22
Speaker 1: We don't know. We don't know why it was thrown out.
37:24
Speaker 1: We just know that's a very strong statement from a
37:27
Speaker 1: judge to dismiss the case with prejudice is at the
37:30
Speaker 1: beginning of a domino effect.
37:32
Speaker 4: You know, Nancy, there's something wrong with this story, and
37:34
Speaker 4: I can't quite figure out what it is. Even if
37:37
Speaker 4: the victim was wrong about her dad coming to pick
37:39
Speaker 4: her up in some of the Stars she said she
37:41
Speaker 4: saw at the party, that doesn't mean that nothing happened.
37:45
Speaker 4: So why was this dropped with prejudice? I'm just a
37:49
Speaker 4: little disturbed by that. Secondly, the fact that jay Z
37:52
Speaker 4: comes out and attacks the attorney and attacks the victims, well,
37:56
Speaker 4: that shows no empathy for the victims or or the
38:00
Speaker 4: judicial system.
38:02
Speaker 1: So right there, that is not a good look at all.
38:04
Speaker 1: He's very self referential.
38:07
Speaker 4: You know, weancy that twenty million dollars a year. That's
38:10
Speaker 4: like a speeding ticket to him, like what a speeding
38:13
Speaker 4: ticket would be for you and me. And the fact
38:15
Speaker 4: that he's crying about that shows no reality about what
38:19
Speaker 4: it's like for most people in the criminal justice system,
38:23
Speaker 4: who have to scrape up money for attorneys, or who
38:26
Speaker 4: lose their jobs or can't get a job after they're incarcerated.
38:30
Speaker 4: Jayce's only worried about himself. I mean, it's just really
38:33
Speaker 4: it seems not surprising to be given this that he's
38:37
Speaker 4: such a good friend of P. Diddy's, because both men
38:40
Speaker 4: seem to be lost in their own worlds, with no
38:42
Speaker 4: idea what's going on in anybody else's life.
38:45
Speaker 1: In the last hours, Sean comes wines he is the
38:50
Speaker 1: victim that he is the target of a very unfair law,
38:54
Speaker 1: Poor poor me, when I'm being singled out, You're not
38:59
Speaker 1: Hey Diddy, You're the one that brought up r Kelly Listen.
39:02
Speaker 12: I met him in nineteen ninety eight at the Home
39:06
Speaker 12: Alone video shoot. I was at ten. His cousin told
39:10
Speaker 12: me that he wanted to meet me. I was surprised
39:13
Speaker 12: because I was only seventeen years old. He asked me
39:15
Speaker 12: how old I was, and I told him I was seventeen.
39:18
Speaker 12: His second question was will your mother let you come
39:20
Speaker 12: to Chicago. I'm assuming he asked that question just to
39:23
Speaker 12: see if I would agree to come. I said, yes,
39:26
Speaker 12: my mother would allow me to come, but of course
39:28
Speaker 12: I didn't ask her. He put me on the phone
39:31
Speaker 12: with June Brown, which is his assistant to this very day.
39:34
Speaker 12: June sent me the money. They actually told me to
39:37
Speaker 12: get my own ticket and where to go and what
39:40
Speaker 12: hotel to go to once I got there and everything,
39:43
Speaker 12: and then they brought me to him once I got
39:44
Speaker 12: to Chicago.
39:45
Speaker 1: You are hearing r Kelly victim Lisa Van Allen describing
39:48
Speaker 1: a sex attack on her by Kelly. You brought it up,
39:51
Speaker 1: Sean comes not me. Listen.
39:55
Speaker 12: He asked me to do a threesome with him, and
39:58
Speaker 12: the way he got me to do it was he
40:00
Speaker 12: told me it never had one before, and with me
40:03
Speaker 12: thinking that his girlfriend, I felt, you know, kind of
40:07
Speaker 12: obligated to do that for him if he had never
40:09
Speaker 12: had one before, and he was a superstar, you know
40:11
Speaker 12: what I mean. I'm like, girls are always throwing themselves
40:14
Speaker 12: at him and he's never had one before, so I'll
40:16
Speaker 12: just I'll go ahead and do it, you know. For
40:19
Speaker 12: we had the threesome, and after we had it, it
40:23
Speaker 12: just became just something that he always wanted to do.
40:26
Speaker 12: Once we did it, more than once I realized it
40:28
Speaker 12: was a lie, but I was already caught up into
40:30
Speaker 12: it and I ended up living there with him. You know,
40:33
Speaker 12: he was taking care of me. You know, I didn't
40:35
Speaker 12: have my job anymore at the mall, you know, so
40:38
Speaker 12: it kind of was like I really didn't have a choice.
40:41
Speaker 1: This is Lisa Van Allen describing being coursed into underage
40:46
Speaker 1: sex with Art Kelly, who's now doing a hard time.
40:49
Speaker 1: But there's more.
40:50
Speaker 12: I know she was fourteen because we actually had a
40:53
Speaker 12: threesome with her at the time. He told me she
40:56
Speaker 12: was sixteen years old. I later found out that she
40:59
Speaker 12: was years younger than that. So because we were headed
41:02
Speaker 12: to one of his video shoots, she told me that
41:05
Speaker 12: she was going to be getting a PP Cruiser for
41:07
Speaker 12: her sixteenth person. By me doing the math, you know
41:10
Speaker 12: of how long ago the first encounter was. It was
41:12
Speaker 12: two years prior and the tape that was on trial,
41:15
Speaker 12: she looked exactly the same, had the same hairstyle, the same,
41:18
Speaker 12: the same just everything. Everything was exactly the same, the same.
41:22
Speaker 12: It was even in the same room.
41:23
Speaker 1: So to you, Shawn Combs, your claiming that you are
41:27
Speaker 1: being unfairly prosecuted under the Man Act, there are many
41:31
Speaker 1: There have been many, many before you, and many many
41:34
Speaker 1: will come after you prosecuted under the same statute. But
41:38
Speaker 1: once again tonight, according to Shawn Combs, it's all about Diddy.
41:44
Speaker 1: Nancy Gray signing off goodbye friend,
