0:26
Speaker 3: Music mogul and rap star Sean Ditty Combs hit with
0:30
Speaker 3: lawsuit after lawsuit after lawsuit, but attorneys claim no matter
0:36
Speaker 3: how many suits are filed, Combs is innocent.
0:42
Speaker 2: Really, After seeing that video of Seawan Comb's aka Ditty
0:50
Speaker 2: aka Puffy aka puff Daddy, I don't know how many
0:53
Speaker 2: there are. After seeing him dragging Cassie Ventura a hotel,
1:02
Speaker 2: I think by her hair, I'd have to look at
1:05
Speaker 2: it again to see if it was her collar or
1:07
Speaker 2: her hair.
1:09
Speaker 1: Innocent? What am I supposed to believe?
1:12
Speaker 2: All of these people suing him are lying and he
1:16
Speaker 2: Ditty is the only one telling the truth. I got
1:21
Speaker 2: a hard time believing that it's coming at it from
1:25
Speaker 2: all sides. He just lost a one hundred million dollar
1:29
Speaker 2: default judgment. This as we learn he's selling his mansion.
1:34
Speaker 2: I think I know why, but there's more.
1:37
Speaker 4: Listen, Federal prosecutors issued a subpoena against a Miami hotel
1:40
Speaker 4: as part of a secret grand jury investigation into Sean
1:44
Speaker 4: Ditty Combs. The hotel in order to turn over all
1:47
Speaker 4: records regarding Combs and known associate Daphne Joy from two
1:50
Speaker 4: thousand and eight to present day. The subpoena includes check
1:53
Speaker 4: in and check out dates, room numbers, guest requests, building
1:56
Speaker 4: information including email addresses and phone numbers, room activity, hotel
2:01
Speaker 4: surveillance footage, computer IP addresses and logins for guests and
2:05
Speaker 4: customer identifications, and vehicle details.
2:08
Speaker 1: What that was a mouthful? Wait a minute, let's break
2:10
Speaker 1: that down now.
2:11
Speaker 2: This as the Danity Kane singer Don Richards is suing
2:16
Speaker 2: Sean Diddy Combs for sex abuse and brutality, and in
2:22
Speaker 2: her pleadings, she's also claiming that she saw him punching
2:27
Speaker 2: and beating not only Cassie Ventura when we know that
2:30
Speaker 2: because we saw that with our own eyes in the
2:32
Speaker 2: hotel's surveillance video, but others as well, including the mother
2:37
Speaker 2: of some of his children, Kim.
2:40
Speaker 1: Porter and more. What's next?
2:44
Speaker 2: First, let me address what I'm hearing about the Feds.
2:48
Speaker 1: Can I tell you, as I fed for three years.
2:51
Speaker 2: They didn't put one toe into the courtroom until they
2:55
Speaker 2: had literally rooms full of boxes full of evidence.
3:02
Speaker 1: I know that.
3:04
Speaker 2: Let me go straight out to Nima Romani, former federal prosecutor,
3:09
Speaker 2: turn trial attorney, president of the West Coast Trial Lawyers,
3:13
Speaker 2: associate association, author of Harvard to hashtag, and also instructor
3:19
Speaker 2: at Harvard.
3:21
Speaker 1: Nima, thank you for being with us. Listen, the FEDS.
3:24
Speaker 2: Are descending on one hotel in particular.
3:29
Speaker 1: There may be others knowing the Feds.
3:31
Speaker 2: There probably are others, but I know about this hotel,
3:35
Speaker 2: so I can speak freely about it. A Miami hotel
3:38
Speaker 2: part of a secret Grandeury investigation into Combs.
3:41
Speaker 1: Listen to what they want.
3:44
Speaker 2: Okay, this relates to not only Combs, but known associate
3:49
Speaker 2: Daphne Joy. He goes all the way back to two
3:52
Speaker 2: thousand and eight. That's a long way to dig back.
3:56
Speaker 2: Listen to what they want. Check in, check out dates,
4:00
Speaker 2: room numbers. I'm sure did He did not check in
4:04
Speaker 2: under his own name, so he's got to have his
4:06
Speaker 2: alias or his assistant.
4:08
Speaker 1: We've got to get that information.
4:09
Speaker 2: Guest requests, What did they want? Did they want a
4:13
Speaker 2: lot of booze? Did they want personal favors from the concierge,
4:17
Speaker 2: building information to.
4:18
Speaker 1: Find out what all they were getting.
4:21
Speaker 2: Maybe they're trying to corroborate a claim of sex abuse
4:25
Speaker 2: or brutality, and they're actually getting the room service orders
4:28
Speaker 2: for that night or day, IP addresses, guest requests, What
4:34
Speaker 2: guest requests Maybe what if they called for band aids
4:38
Speaker 2: or bandages or medicine or painkillers. I don't know what
4:41
Speaker 2: guest requests are they talking about. I'm very interested in
4:45
Speaker 2: the room service activity, hotel surveillance footage, computer IP addresses
4:52
Speaker 2: and log ins for guests, customer IDs, even down to
4:57
Speaker 2: the vehicle information. Go to hotel A lot of times
5:01
Speaker 2: I'll ask what are you driving with the tag number
5:03
Speaker 2: and all that. That's a lot of information, Nima, what
5:08
Speaker 2: is brewing?
5:09
Speaker 1: It is, Nancy.
5:10
Speaker 5: They're looking for really two categories of information. Obviously, you
5:13
Speaker 5: want that direct evidence if you're a prosecutor. The video
5:17
Speaker 5: of Ditty beating someone, whether it's Cassie venture, obviously we
5:21
Speaker 5: all saw that from the Intercontinental here in Los Angeles
5:25
Speaker 5: where I live. So there's any evidence of that that's
5:27
Speaker 5: going to be gold. But even evidence that corroborates what
5:30
Speaker 5: the victims are saying, right, that's what you want to
5:34
Speaker 5: show that they were there with Diddy on the days
5:37
Speaker 5: that they alleged that they were physically and sexually abused.
5:40
Speaker 1: That's all helpful.
5:41
Speaker 5: If you're a prosecutor and you know how the FEDS work, Nancy,
5:44
Speaker 5: you and I work there. They want to make sure
5:46
Speaker 5: that all their eyes are dotted teaser crossed before they
5:50
Speaker 5: go to that grandeury, get that indictment, because you know,
5:52
Speaker 5: in a case like this there's no deal to be
5:55
Speaker 5: had it He's going to push the case to trial.
5:58
Speaker 5: So you want to make sure when you arrest him
6:00
Speaker 5: when he's a rain, that you're ready to go and
6:03
Speaker 5: you have all the evidence you need to put him
6:06
Speaker 5: away for life.
6:07
Speaker 2: Everything you just said is correct, Nima, but I want
6:09
Speaker 2: to talk about why they want this particular information.
6:14
Speaker 1: Everything you said is correct, but you kind of.
6:16
Speaker 2: Danced around why do they want room service orders?
6:22
Speaker 1: Hold on, I'm going to let you percolate on that.
6:25
Speaker 2: Joining me is Tom Smith, former NYPD detective, and I
6:30
Speaker 2: love nothing more than going well a few things more.
6:34
Speaker 2: I would love to go through on the days of
6:37
Speaker 2: these alleged sex attacks and brutality claims. I want to
6:43
Speaker 2: find out who's up in that Penthal sweet with Diddy?
6:47
Speaker 2: What are they smoking, what are they eating? How many
6:50
Speaker 2: people are there? That's why I want to see the
6:52
Speaker 2: room service. I want to find out if they ordered
6:55
Speaker 2: anything from the concierge, if they needed the house doctor.
6:58
Speaker 1: I remember when I was on top, I had.
7:02
Speaker 2: Took a swim in a pool and got a horrible
7:07
Speaker 2: ear infection, and I had to be in court every day,
7:10
Speaker 2: and I had the twins with me.
7:12
Speaker 1: We had to finally.
7:12
Speaker 2: Get the house doctor, who showed up three am so
7:17
Speaker 2: I could go to work at five am.
7:21
Speaker 1: It hurts so much.
7:23
Speaker 2: Long story short, I would love to find out if
7:26
Speaker 2: the house doctor was called up there and why. There's
7:29
Speaker 2: just so much I can learn from what the guest
7:33
Speaker 2: requests were.
7:34
Speaker 1: What about it? Help me out, Tom?
7:36
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a Trevor treasure trove because you're corroborating witness
7:41
Speaker 6: statements maybe source reporting of what was going on up there.
7:45
Speaker 6: And like both of you said in the US Attorney's office,
7:48
Speaker 6: you want a slam dunk. You want every possible piece
7:51
Speaker 6: of evidence you could get to make sure it's in
7:54
Speaker 6: front of him. It scares the hell out of him
7:57
Speaker 6: and they don't go to trial. Now, Well, did he
7:59
Speaker 6: probably do that, yes, But the way the US Attorney's
8:02
Speaker 6: Office works, you get every conceivable piece of evidence you
8:06
Speaker 6: can on every level to make sure these charges stick.
8:10
Speaker 2: Guys with me and All Star Pound to make sense
8:12
Speaker 2: of what we are learning right now, let me go
8:14
Speaker 2: straight out to Crime online dot Com investigative reporter with
8:16
Speaker 2: the latest on Ditty aka Shawn Combs aka Shawn Puffy
8:21
Speaker 2: Combs Akapuff Daddy.
8:24
Speaker 1: It goes on Sydney Summer. The reason I keep saying
8:27
Speaker 1: that is another thing.
8:29
Speaker 2: I really love is when you are standing before the
8:33
Speaker 2: jury pool which means sixty to eighty to one hundred
8:38
Speaker 2: potential grrs, and you read the indictment and you spend
8:41
Speaker 2: the whole page going through they're aliases before you can
8:45
Speaker 2: even get to the charges, because most people are thinking, I.
8:50
Speaker 1: Only have one name, why does he have aliases?
8:54
Speaker 2: Of course, in the music industry, in the TV industry.
8:57
Speaker 1: There are a lot of monikers.
8:59
Speaker 2: That stage names and so forth that said, what's happening
9:04
Speaker 2: Sidney Sumner. Why do the FEDS want the guest requests,
9:10
Speaker 2: surveillance footage, vehicle information, check in check out room numbers.
9:17
Speaker 2: Why do they want all that information for this lox hotel.
9:20
Speaker 2: Don't you know that hotel is standing on their ear
9:23
Speaker 2: right now?
9:24
Speaker 7: Absolutely, Nancy, that hotel is probably panicking, wondering if they
9:28
Speaker 7: are going to have any culpability themselves. And I just
9:31
Speaker 7: wanted to add to your list. One of these new
9:33
Speaker 7: lawsuits had a new one that I had never heard before.
9:36
Speaker 7: Did he runs the City? That was a new alias
9:38
Speaker 7: I had not heard before.
9:40
Speaker 8: But in terms of.
9:41
Speaker 7: The evidence that they are looking for from this hotel,
9:44
Speaker 7: a lot of it makes sense to me. So think
9:47
Speaker 7: about when you're staying in a hotel. To use the
9:49
Speaker 7: Wi Fi, you have to log in, you have to
9:52
Speaker 7: provide some kind.
9:53
Speaker 8: Of login information to attach to that Wi Fi.
9:56
Speaker 9: So if any kind of videotaping was going on in
9:59
Speaker 9: those rooms rooms, I'm thinking that the FEDS are trying
10:04
Speaker 9: to figure out if that video was uploaded somewhere, if
10:07
Speaker 9: there's some kind of treasure trove.
10:09
Speaker 10: Of online storage space that is being used to hide
10:13
Speaker 10: incriminating materials, That's what I think they're looking for with
10:16
Speaker 10: those computer, IP addresses, email addresses, all of that digital information.
10:21
Speaker 1: Okay, hold on this a moment, Sidney, I hear what
10:24
Speaker 1: you're saying.
10:25
Speaker 2: Okay, Nima Romani let's talk about what we know that's
10:30
Speaker 2: on the subpoena to this lux hotel. Does what Sidney
10:34
Speaker 2: Sumner just said, does that somehow affect your opinion as
10:40
Speaker 2: to what the feds are seeking?
10:43
Speaker 1: We know he took videos. We know he took.
10:46
Speaker 2: Videos, and we know we had them in his home
10:49
Speaker 2: and he had them on his yacht.
10:52
Speaker 1: I wonder what the video caught.
10:54
Speaker 2: So why you know when you don't know a horse NeiMa,
10:59
Speaker 2: I don't know if you teach at Harvard, look at
11:01
Speaker 2: the track record. If he videos at home, and he
11:04
Speaker 2: videos in his yacht, and he videos in all of
11:07
Speaker 2: his homes, we know the surveillance video. Why would he
11:11
Speaker 2: do anything differently in this Looks hotel. I wonder if
11:16
Speaker 2: he was videoing the alleged sex assaults.
11:20
Speaker 5: Well, we know you videotaped the sex acts because that's
11:22
Speaker 5: what Cassie Venture said in our first lawsuit in November.
11:26
Speaker 5: I mean he would videotaper being raped by prostitutes. So
11:30
Speaker 5: this was Ditty's m O. And in addition everything that
11:33
Speaker 5: we talked about, Right, obviously we know Diddy is a
11:35
Speaker 5: target of the investigation, but you want to identify other perpetrators.
11:39
Speaker 5: If you're a prosecutor, you're going to wrap them up
11:42
Speaker 5: into that indictment. Maybe you flip them, maybe you cooperate them.
11:45
Speaker 5: But whether they're perpetrators or witnesses, you want to identify
11:49
Speaker 5: everyone who was there because they may be co defendants
11:53
Speaker 5: or they may be people that are going to testify
11:55
Speaker 5: in the case against Diddy as well. So we know
11:58
Speaker 5: that he has a pattern of committing physical and sexual
12:03
Speaker 5: crimes in these hotels. So I wouldn't be surprised whether
12:06
Speaker 5: it's La or Miami or anywhere in the world, they
12:09
Speaker 5: did the same thing at that hotel.
12:11
Speaker 1: Don't you know he's got that video recorder.
12:14
Speaker 2: Go in some of these lux hotel penhouse suites three
12:18
Speaker 2: to five thousand dollars a night, and you know another
12:21
Speaker 2: thing I.
12:22
Speaker 1: Would be looking at.
12:24
Speaker 2: Let's think it through Lynn Shaw joining me a founder
12:27
Speaker 2: executive director Lynn's Warriors, committed to ending sexual exploitation. Lynn,
12:34
Speaker 2: another thing, I bet the fans want employee records. You
12:38
Speaker 2: want to tell me the room service guy didn't look
12:43
Speaker 2: in the door and keep looking as they shut the door,
12:46
Speaker 2: What is Diddy doing in there? And what about when
12:50
Speaker 2: they roll the table in and they set everything up,
12:56
Speaker 2: they get an eye in in earful. I want to
12:59
Speaker 2: know who brought him room service, What if anything did
13:02
Speaker 2: you see?
13:03
Speaker 1: Was everybody stone? Did you see drugs? I want to
13:06
Speaker 1: hear it all.
13:07
Speaker 2: Plus, as Nima Remini just stated, potential witnesses. There's nothing
13:13
Speaker 2: the Feds like more than to turn a codefendant against
13:18
Speaker 2: the defendant.
13:19
Speaker 1: They're looking for witnesses.
13:20
Speaker 11: Lamb buckle up, everyone, because here's what I have to
13:23
Speaker 11: say about this. Sean Comb's puff daddy. P Diddy told
13:27
Speaker 11: us exactly who he is when he named his company
13:31
Speaker 11: bad Boy Entertainment. Now, I know we always talk about
13:35
Speaker 11: you know, we need the proof, but I am here
13:37
Speaker 11: to say this what makes the most money. I'm going
13:41
Speaker 11: to blow this up a little bit. It is sex
13:42
Speaker 11: trafficking and drug trafficking. I'm also throwing into that labor trafficking.
13:48
Speaker 11: We at the Warriors work with a lot of victims,
13:50
Speaker 11: survivors that have come up through the rap world, through
13:53
Speaker 11: the hip hop world. These are women who have don't
13:56
Speaker 11: even know each other, and they have repeatedly over the
13:59
Speaker 11: years told us this was part of the culture of
14:02
Speaker 11: that world. And I want to get back to this.
14:04
Speaker 11: P Diddy runs the city Because I'm sitting here in
14:06
Speaker 11: the middle of New York City and for many decades
14:09
Speaker 11: down the street for me, he had to pass this
14:11
Speaker 11: big office building, big skyscraper, bad Boy Entertainment, that was
14:17
Speaker 11: the world headquarters.
14:18
Speaker 1: They had one floor in.
14:19
Speaker 11: The building, and you know what, the building was named
14:22
Speaker 11: bad Boy Entertainment. So I always wondered, why is there
14:25
Speaker 11: name splashed all over this. I've always heard whisperings and
14:28
Speaker 11: rumors being in the entertainment business and media, but again
14:32
Speaker 11: not having the proof, but so many different people tell
14:35
Speaker 11: you the same story over and over again. Does P
14:38
Speaker 11: Diddy run the city? Because we have to remember there
14:41
Speaker 11: was that case with j Lo where they left his
14:43
Speaker 11: nightclub and they were throwing guns out of windows or
14:46
Speaker 11: something like that, and the driver took the fall, so
14:49
Speaker 11: to speak.
14:49
Speaker 1: For all of this.
14:50
Speaker 11: So he's been around a long time. So I have
14:52
Speaker 11: to ask everybody what has taken so long? So what
14:55
Speaker 11: we have to have now is this video evidence. It's
14:58
Speaker 11: been around, these whispers a long time. I say sex trafficking.
15:01
Speaker 11: I'm throwing in labor trafficking because the definition is forced
15:05
Speaker 11: fraud coercion for trafficking.
15:12
Speaker 3: A twenty twenty three lawsuit from an ex girlfriend opens
15:16
Speaker 3: a can of worms for disgraced rapper and producer Sean P.
15:21
Speaker 3: Diddy Combs. Investigators raid combs properties in a shocking sex
15:26
Speaker 3: trafficking probe.
15:29
Speaker 1: And Sean Diddy Combs defaults.
15:33
Speaker 2: You know how when you're playing softball er baseball in
15:36
Speaker 2: grammar school and the other team doesn't show up, it's
15:38
Speaker 2: a default you win same thing. In court, Combs has
15:44
Speaker 2: a one hundred million dollar judgment leveled against him by default.
15:54
Speaker 1: This has many many other claims of sex attacks and
15:57
Speaker 1: brutality emerge. Who who and remember?
16:01
Speaker 2: Regarding all the information they want from that hotel, There
16:05
Speaker 2: is a known associate named Daphney Joy that is also targeted.
16:11
Speaker 1: Why but listen to this?
16:12
Speaker 12: New lawsuits alleging sexual assault pushed the number of Sean
16:16
Speaker 12: Diddy Combe's legal battles into double digits. Making the band
16:20
Speaker 12: contestant Don Richard, the former Danity Kane singer, allegis the
16:25
Speaker 12: Bad Boys CEO manipulated her to comply with his depraved demands,
16:30
Speaker 12: promising to advance her career.
16:33
Speaker 4: Don Richard alleges that, in addition to calling female, making
16:36
Speaker 4: the band contestants ugly and fat, Combs forced her to
16:39
Speaker 4: rehearse for forty eight hours straight with no sleep. In
16:42
Speaker 4: another incident, Comb's scheduled a rehearsal at his home and
16:45
Speaker 4: refused to put on clothes. Richard says Combs entered her
16:49
Speaker 4: dressing room while she was naked and touched her inappropriately.
16:52
Speaker 4: Richard also details a terrifying incident when Comb's locked her
16:56
Speaker 4: in a car for hours. Richard says she saw kim
16:59
Speaker 4: porter her face as of Pire Deef Fresh Injuries. Richard
17:02
Speaker 4: says she saw Combs throw Cassie against a wall choker
17:05
Speaker 4: several times, throw a hot pan at her, and even
17:08
Speaker 4: drag Ventua by her hair. When Richard and another bandmate
17:11
Speaker 4: tell Ventura to leave Combs, Combs threatens to kill them
17:14
Speaker 4: good gravy.
17:15
Speaker 1: I hardly know how to digest all of that. I've
17:19
Speaker 1: got to tear it apart.
17:21
Speaker 2: Joining me renowned analyst Karen Stark, psychologist, renowned on TV
17:26
Speaker 2: and radio as trauma expert at Karenstark dot com Karen
17:31
Speaker 2: with a CEA, Karen.
17:32
Speaker 1: That's a lot to take in.
17:34
Speaker 2: It's amazing how people with power, money and prestige believe
17:39
Speaker 2: they can get away with treating their underlings like crap
17:45
Speaker 2: technical legal term. Listen to this calling female contestants ugly
17:51
Speaker 2: and fat, forcing them to rehearse forty eight hours straight.
17:55
Speaker 2: Locking this one person in a car. I'm talking about
17:59
Speaker 2: Dawn Richard Star Danny Kane. She was on making the
18:05
Speaker 2: band if you'll recall, And it goes on and on
18:08
Speaker 2: and on, and it brings in this woman. Richard brings
18:11
Speaker 2: in eyewitness testimony regarding seeing one of Sean Combs's.
18:18
Speaker 1: I guess you'd say wife.
18:20
Speaker 2: Lovers kim porter with her face having been beaten. Saw
18:27

18:30
Speaker 2: throw a hot pan at her. Then threatens to destroy
18:35
Speaker 2: these ladies' careers if they sever tize, okay, you take over, Nancy.
18:41
Speaker 13: He's a narcissistic abuser. This has been going on for years.
18:45
Speaker 13: It's so good that it's finally coming to light because
18:49
Speaker 13: he's taking advantage, no doubt about it, of the power.
18:53
Speaker 13: We have seen this before. This is Harvey Weinstein, this
18:56
Speaker 13: is Bill Cosby. These are guys who take that path,
19:00
Speaker 13: abuse the women, do whatever they want and threaten their careers,
19:04
Speaker 13: and that keeps these women under their thumb because they
19:08
Speaker 13: need their careers, they need to advance, they want to
19:12
Speaker 13: and they have no choice but to be under the
19:15
Speaker 13: domination of these men.
19:17
Speaker 8: They don't see it any other way.
19:18
Speaker 2: Sidney Summer joining me Crime online dot Com investigative reporter.
19:22
Speaker 2: Exactly who is the quote known associate Daphney Joy and
19:28
Speaker 2: who is the making the band contestant Dawn Richard. She's
19:33
Speaker 2: from Danny Kaine, right, Yes.
19:34
Speaker 8: That's correct. So Daphney Joy is a model an actress.
19:40
Speaker 7: She has an OnlyFans account that you can subscribe to
19:43
Speaker 7: for twenty five dollars.
19:44
Speaker 2: A money a minute. Hold off, when you say a
19:47
Speaker 2: model slash actress, you mean modeling on only fans? What
19:53
Speaker 2: kind of model are we talking about? Are we talking
19:56
Speaker 2: about New York Fashion Week model? Are we talking about
20:00
Speaker 2: Paris the runways? Are we talking about stripping on OnlyFans model?
20:04
Speaker 7: I do believe currently it's more stripping on OnlyFans.
20:08
Speaker 8: I believe she may have been.
20:09
Speaker 7: Popular on social media for most of this time. I
20:12
Speaker 7: do not believe she's a runway model. But yeah, and
20:17
Speaker 7: she has some minor credits and some popular movies. Step
20:20
Speaker 7: Up in twenty eleven, I had never heard of before
20:24
Speaker 7: Pirates of the Caribbean on Stranger Tide. She was one
20:26
Speaker 7: of the Mermaids in that movie. And what we know
20:29
Speaker 7: of her relationship with Ditty is that they are close.
20:32
Speaker 7: They have never publicly said we're dating, we're in a relationship,
20:35
Speaker 7: but they have known each other for several years and
20:38
Speaker 7: she is frequently on Ditty's Instagram.
20:41
Speaker 8: They know each other very well.
20:43
Speaker 1: Don't care, don't care.
20:45
Speaker 2: You can model on OnlyFans, you can model it New
20:48
Speaker 2: York Fashion Week.
20:49
Speaker 1: I don't care. But what I do care is when
20:51
Speaker 1: I hear the words known.
20:53
Speaker 2: Associate, okay, name Romani, former federal prosecutor.
20:59
Speaker 1: All the arbor to hashtag.
21:01
Speaker 2: When I heard that, here the two words known associate, okay,
21:05
Speaker 2: my ears, Pricka explain what does it mean to be
21:08
Speaker 2: a known associate?
21:10
Speaker 1: Nothing good?
21:11
Speaker 8: Well, definitely not good.
21:12
Speaker 5: And we know that there are allegations that did he
21:14
Speaker 5: use other women to lure the victims of sex trafficking.
21:20
Speaker 5: And I'm not saying that Daphkin did that, but she's
21:23
Speaker 5: allegedly been a victim herself. She's made allegations that she
21:26
Speaker 5: was raped not by Diddy but by fifty Cent. Obviously,
21:29
Speaker 5: fifty Cent is doing a documentary about Diddy's alleged abuse
21:33
Speaker 5: that's going to come out, so There's a lot of
21:36
Speaker 5: people involved, Nancy. It's not just Diddy. We know that
21:40
Speaker 5: there were other individuals at his infamous parties, as white parties.
21:44
Speaker 5: They are going to be wrapped up in this, But
21:46
Speaker 5: I wouldn't be surprised if there was women involved as
21:50
Speaker 5: well who lured these victims of the sex trafic.
21:58
Speaker 1: Did he Do It?
22:00
Speaker 3: Stars and others speak out about their experiences with Combs.
22:05
Speaker 3: Beloved wrapper Fitty sent claims He's always said something's not right.
22:12
Speaker 2: Okay, something's not right. That's not helping me. I mean names, addresses,
22:16
Speaker 2: witness accounts. That's what the feds are doing right now.
22:20
Speaker 2: You don't hear what they do because they keep it
22:23
Speaker 2: under wraps until they've got basically a warehouse full of
22:26
Speaker 2: boxes full of documents that will corroborate eyewitness statements, receipts.
22:32
Speaker 2: They have a group of snoops, federal snoops, and they
22:37
Speaker 2: are really good. They will go through every grocery store receipt,
22:43
Speaker 2: every room service receipt, who carried your room service, every
22:48
Speaker 2: phone call you may to, whose cell phone, every vehicle
22:52
Speaker 2: tag number that was at that hotel and probably other
22:56
Speaker 2: hotels that Sean Combs frequented. But we just has heard
23:00
Speaker 2: Nima Romani speak with some degree of familiarity with Sean
23:06
Speaker 2: Puffy Combe's white parties, So everybody has to wear white.
23:11
Speaker 2: Hold on, it's not a party for everybody.
23:15
Speaker 14: Listen Adria English to dance her at Shawn Combe's annual
23:19
Speaker 14: white party. She accuses Combs of grooming her for sex trafficking,
23:22
Speaker 14: forced her to have sex with guests. In her lawsuit,
23:25
Speaker 14: English says during one party, she was told to wear
23:27
Speaker 14: a black dress was a signal to others she was
23:30
Speaker 14: a sex worker. English says she went along with Ditty's
23:33
Speaker 14: demands out of fear for her safety and future job perspectives.
23:37
Speaker 14: English says when she broke ties with Combs, he ruined
23:41
Speaker 14: her career.
23:41
Speaker 12: English also filed a police report with Miami Beach PD,
23:45
Speaker 12: alleging Shawn Combs coerdd her into having sex with three
23:48
Speaker 12: guests in attendance at his white party. Miami Beach PD
23:53
Speaker 12: says the investigators will turn the evidence over to federal investigators,
23:57
Speaker 12: who will decide whether to pursue charges.
24:00
Speaker 2: You really got to pick this apart and Tom Smith
24:02
Speaker 2: joining me, former NYPD detective co host gold Shields Podcasts.
24:09
Speaker 1: Tom asking a woman.
24:11
Speaker 2: To wear a little black dress as they are called
24:14
Speaker 2: to a cocktail party doesn't sound odd, doesn't until you
24:19
Speaker 2: realize is Sean Puffy Comes's white party he throws.
24:24
Speaker 1: Every year is renowned. Not in a good way. Let
24:27
Speaker 1: me just say it's.
24:29
Speaker 2: Infamous, not famous, but infamous, and everyone is instructed to
24:33
Speaker 2: I don't think they can even get in if they're
24:36
Speaker 2: not wearing all white. So by telling this woman to
24:41
Speaker 2: wear black, that seemingly goes hand in hand, tongue and
24:47
Speaker 2: groove with her statement that she was told to wear
24:50
Speaker 2: a black dress to signal others she was a sex worker,
24:55
Speaker 2: and then goes on to describe being coerced into having
24:59
Speaker 2: sex with multiple people at the white party.
25:02
Speaker 1: What about it? You know, Nancy, this is a criminal enterprise.
25:06
Speaker 8: That's what this is.
25:06
Speaker 6: It's an organization, and everyone attending that party is in
25:09
Speaker 6: on it because everyone there is aware of why she's
25:12
Speaker 6: wearing a black dress. This is known, this is calculated,
25:16
Speaker 6: and this is a bad, bad guy who has a
25:19
Speaker 6: history and all over the place. And this is a
25:22
Speaker 6: large investigation. You're talking about multiple agencies and multiple states
25:27
Speaker 6: coming together and doing exactly what you said. The DA,
25:30
Speaker 6: the US attorneys and investigators going to sit down and
25:34
Speaker 6: go through what they need to prosecute them. The US
25:38
Speaker 6: attorneys will say I need this. The investigators will going
25:40
Speaker 6: to do it. There's a litany of information that's going
25:44
Speaker 6: to come out of this through source information, witness statements,
25:48
Speaker 6: electronic surveillances that have been done. Diddy's in a lot
25:51
Speaker 6: of trouble with this, especially that the FEDS are involved.
25:54
Speaker 1: Now, well, I say a big red flag. Listen if
25:57
Speaker 1: you listen to inside sources.
26:00
Speaker 12: Ditty Combs always intended to sell his seventeen thousand square
26:03
Speaker 12: foot home in La once his three daughters moved out. Some, however,
26:08
Speaker 12: question the timing of that plan. The current listing for
26:11
Speaker 12: the mansion is sixty one point five million dollars, twenty
26:15
Speaker 12: million more than he purchased it for in twenty fourteen.
26:18
Speaker 12: The home features ten bedrooms thirteen bathrooms. There is a
26:22
Speaker 12: wine cellar, a separate catering kitchen, and a theater. The
26:26
Speaker 12: two story guesthouse has a gym, recording studio and multiple suites.
26:30
Speaker 12: Let's not forget the basketball court, spa, and in ground
26:33
Speaker 12: pool with a waterfall.
26:35
Speaker 2: Wait a minute, an in ground pool with a waterfall Okay,
26:41
Speaker 2: as interesting as that might be, I'm actually more concerned
26:45
Speaker 2: and more interested in any type of room that would
26:50
Speaker 2: have been used to house video and electronic surveillance equipment.
26:55
Speaker 2: Sidney Summer joining the investigator reporter. Is this the same
26:59
Speaker 2: home that was rated good Gravy? It looks like a hotel,
27:02
Speaker 2: tell me about it, Sydney.
27:04
Speaker 7: Absolutely, this is that same home that was rated just
27:06
Speaker 7: a few months ago.
27:07
Speaker 8: And remember we saw video from that.
27:10
Speaker 7: Read and you can see investigators carrying out bags and
27:16
Speaker 7: boxes and inside rooms that look like they have all
27:21
Speaker 7: kinds of servers and his Internet capabilities. So absolutely, surveillance
27:26
Speaker 7: footage was removed from this home.
27:29
Speaker 8: And that's what a lot of celebrities are saying.
27:32
Speaker 7: Are keeping other people quiet, possible witnesses, people who are
27:36
Speaker 7: associated with Diddy, They say, the fear of what's on
27:40
Speaker 7: that surveillance footage is what's keeping anybody from speaking.
27:44
Speaker 8: Out against him or speaking on behalf of him.
27:47
Speaker 2: So are you telling me, Sydney Summer, that a lot
27:50
Speaker 2: of his so called friends are keeping their distance because
27:54
Speaker 2: they're afraid they might pop up on a video with
27:56
Speaker 2: their pants down.
27:56
Speaker 8: Absolutely, Nancy, that is what the word is right now.
28:00
Speaker 7: People are afraid of what behavior was caught on that
28:04
Speaker 7: surveillance footage.
28:06
Speaker 3: A troubling trail of lawsuits and sex trafficking allegations left
28:10
Speaker 3: to the wake of Sean Puffy Comb's federal sex trafficking
28:14
Speaker 3: pro Diddy now sells his multi million dollar rated home.
28:21
Speaker 2: And what does Cuba Gooding Junior have to do with
28:26
Speaker 2: Sean Puffy Combs and everything that's happening now with the
28:29
Speaker 2: federal investigation where they're tearing down, shredding the information connected
28:35
Speaker 2: to a luxury resort hotel well Listen.
28:38
Speaker 14: Rodney Jones's lawsuit has stalled as attorney Tyrone Blackburn has
28:42
Speaker 14: not been able to serve Justin Comb's or newly named defendant,
28:46
Speaker 14: Cuba Gooding Junior. Blackburn has accused Combs's legal team of
28:49
Speaker 14: trying to run the clock with deceptive behavior to prevent
28:53
Speaker 14: Justin Combs from being served before the one hundred and
28:55
Speaker 14: twenty day deadline at which he would be dismissed. As
28:59
Speaker 14: a defense Cuba Gooding Junior has reportedly been dodging service
29:03
Speaker 14: attempts as well, refusing to answer the door at his
29:06
Speaker 14: address on record from his previous criminal sexual assault cases.
29:11
Speaker 2: Sidey Senator what does Cuba Gooding Junior have to do
29:15
Speaker 2: with Combs.
29:16
Speaker 8: So, Nancy.
29:16
Speaker 7: In an amended version of Rodney Jones' lawsuit, he now
29:20
Speaker 7: names Cuba Gooding.
29:21
Speaker 8: Junior as a defendant.
29:23
Speaker 11: And I believe Jones.
29:24
Speaker 7: Alleges that at some point Combs put him and Gooding
29:30
Speaker 7: into a room together and wanted Gooding to get to
29:33
Speaker 7: know Jones better, and there was some inappropriate touching that happened,
29:38
Speaker 7: and Jones had to shove Cuba Gooding Junior off of him.
29:41
Speaker 7: So that is the newest named defendant in Rodney Jones' lawsuit.
29:46
Speaker 7: So he's having trouble getting Gooding to respond to accept
29:50
Speaker 7: service of this lawsuit.
29:52
Speaker 8: He's also having the same problem with Justin Combs.
29:55
Speaker 7: Remember Jones accuses Justin Combs being involved in a shooting
30:01
Speaker 7: at one of Diddy's recording studios and then says.
30:04
Speaker 2: Oh wait, this is a mini tentacle creature. Let me
30:10
Speaker 2: first address Cuba Gooding Junior, who of course maintains his innocence.
30:17
Speaker 2: Nima Ramani. When I say mini tentacle, think about not
30:23
Speaker 2: just an octopus with the octo eight legs. Think about
30:29
Speaker 2: a sea serpent with a myriad of legs, stretch out
30:34
Speaker 2: to get all of its victims. That's what this criminal
30:38
Speaker 2: enterprise allegedly is. Now we reportedly have Cuba Gooding Junior
30:45
Speaker 2: dodging court service.
30:47
Speaker 8: Well, Nancy said it.
30:49
Speaker 5: It's a criminal enterprise and when that indictment comes down,
30:52
Speaker 5: it's going to be a Rico indictment. So there's allegations
30:55
Speaker 5: of sex trafficking, drug trafficking, guns, and Cuba Gooding engineer
31:00
Speaker 5: was allegedly at these parties. If you look at the
31:03
Speaker 5: allegations in these civil laws, its allegedly participated in these
31:07
Speaker 5: sex acts. That's why he's being sued.
31:09
Speaker 8: So question is it, Hey.
31:11
Speaker 2: Being at a party and making out with one of
31:14
Speaker 2: the other guests does not land you in federal hot
31:18
Speaker 2: water where you're hiding behind a locked door so you
31:21
Speaker 2: don't have to accept service.
31:22
Speaker 1: It's not just going to a party, Nama Romani.
31:26
Speaker 5: Well, no, it's not just being at the party. The
31:28
Speaker 5: allegations were that he participated in these acts. That's what
31:32
Speaker 5: these civil Lawsits just illegal acts.
31:37
Speaker 2: Not just making out or having sex in the closet
31:40
Speaker 2: at a party at the White Party, but performing illegal
31:46
Speaker 2: sex acts, which typically means against someone's consent where they
31:50
Speaker 2: are forced or coerced to perform a sex act. That's
31:54
Speaker 2: what we're talking about. And let me reiterate Cuba Gooding
31:57
Speaker 2: Junior and sis he's innocent.
31:59
Speaker 1: H Okay. I'm trying to make sense of this.
32:02
Speaker 2: Linn Shaw joining me from Linn's Warriors Finding Sexploitation.
32:07
Speaker 1: Linna Shaw, I want to hear.
32:08
Speaker 2: Your analysis of parties that are now under the federal microscope.
32:14
Speaker 11: My analysis, my opinion is this is a sex and
32:19
Speaker 11: drug trafficking operation. That is what I am calling it.
32:23
Speaker 11: All of the evidence we know about the reported stories,
32:26
Speaker 11: the reported you know, the victims survivors that are coming forth,
32:30
Speaker 11: and I want to be very careful here. We can
32:32
Speaker 11: never forget about all of these victims of this big
32:35
Speaker 11: bully that's been running around terrorizing people, because you know what,
32:39
Speaker 11: it's mostly vulnerable girls and also some boys, young men
32:43
Speaker 11: and young women. So we got to keep an eye
32:45
Speaker 11: on them as well because they come from very vulnerable backgrounds.
32:48
Speaker 11: And sure, who doesn't want to hang around with you know,
32:51
Speaker 11: mansions and parties and all that. But let's also say
32:54
Speaker 11: the white parties, they were also called freak outs, and
32:57
Speaker 11: we heard there were almost casting calls. We heard, we
33:01
Speaker 11: heard there were casting calls for anybody who wanted to attend,
33:05
Speaker 11: will fly you to Miami, will fly you into New York.
33:08
Speaker 11: We should be looking at all of that. So if
33:10
Speaker 11: the FEDS have done all of this so far, I
33:14
Speaker 11: am telling you they are looking at a sex and
33:16
Speaker 11: drug and weapons investigation. That is my opinion, and that
33:21
Speaker 11: is where all the money comes from, because, let's face it,
33:23
Speaker 11: everybody the music business, how do you afford these seventy
33:26
Speaker 11: dollars seventy million dollar mansions in multiple.
33:30
Speaker 1: States and all that.
33:30
Speaker 11: You can't make that kind of money in the music
33:33
Speaker 11: business anymore. Where does it come from? Again, I repeat
33:36
Speaker 11: the number one crimes that are making money today, sex trafficking,
33:40
Speaker 11: human trafficking, the labor trafficking, the drug trafficking, and dealing
33:44
Speaker 11: in weapons. That's my opinion. That's where they're going.
33:47
Speaker 2: And the so called White Parties have been going on
33:49
Speaker 2: for twenty five years now, speaking not only of the
33:53
Speaker 2: White Party and alleged sex attacks during the White Party.
34:00
Speaker 1: Also this guy with the one hundred million.
34:04
Speaker 2: Dollar default judgment against SEMPA, he comes listen, well.
34:09
Speaker 15: I have a proof of service showing that mister Colmes
34:15
Speaker 15: was served on July sixth.
34:20
Speaker 8: Two thousand, and I see is that twenty four?
34:25
Speaker 6: Yes?
34:26
Speaker 9: Yeah, looks like at tw twenty.
34:29
Speaker 15: Four return receipt requested was provided, so there is propper service.
34:34
Speaker 8: Mister Colmebs has neither appeared nor responded.
34:38
Speaker 15: To this request, so I'm going to grant your motion.
34:44
Speaker 16: We did a live one on one visit in our
34:47
Speaker 16: prison visiting room. There's two meetings within the past two
34:51
Speaker 16: weeks with mister Colmes on one meeting and then a
34:55
Speaker 16: financial advisor on the other meeting.
34:57
Speaker 8: On mister Colmes behalf.
34:59
Speaker 16: He made me a financial offer of two point three
35:01
Speaker 16: million dollars to allow what happened to me to go away,
35:04
Speaker 16: and he pretty much said yeah.
35:05
Speaker 6: He says, you know how we get down?
35:07
Speaker 16: And I said, okay, well I disagree with how you
35:10
Speaker 16: get down.
35:10
Speaker 1: You know how we get down? Okay.
35:13
Speaker 2: Now, according to this guy who just won one hundred
35:15
Speaker 2: million dollars default judgment, Sean Combs, was just on a
35:20
Speaker 2: video conference with him behind bars.
35:22
Speaker 1: But listen, his lawyers. Combs his lawyers say, hey, I've
35:26
Speaker 1: never even heard of this guy. Listen.
35:27
Speaker 4: Comb's attorney denied Cardella Smith's allegations, claiming Comb's never even
35:32
Speaker 4: heard of Cardella Smith much Less received a lawsuit from him.
35:35
Speaker 4: The judgment orders Combs to pay Cardella Smith ten million
35:39
Speaker 4: dollars on a monthly basis beginning October first. The Comb's
35:42
Speaker 4: attorney accuses Cardella Smith of court fraud. Cardela Smith reportedly
35:46
Speaker 4: filed a prison visitation record with Combe's name on it
35:49
Speaker 4: to support his claims.
35:50
Speaker 1: What row if Combs his name is.
35:53
Speaker 2: On a prison visitation list and he had a conference
35:58
Speaker 2: call in one of the visitors rooms about his settlement.
36:01
Speaker 1: Sidney Sumner, this guy that just got.
36:03
Speaker 2: One hundred million dollars default claim against Combs, didn't he
36:09
Speaker 2: say he met Combs as part of hospitality and restaurant viz.
36:14
Speaker 8: Yes, So it's a.
36:15
Speaker 7: Very big way of putting that, and we're not entirely
36:18
Speaker 7: sure what that means.
36:19
Speaker 8: But Cardello Smith claims he met Combs in the late
36:24
Speaker 8: nineties in Detroit.
36:25
Speaker 7: They attended several parties together, and in nineteen ninety seven
36:30
Speaker 7: Combs invited multiple beautiful women to a hotel room with
36:35
Speaker 7: Cardello Smith. They were both having sex performing sex acts
36:39
Speaker 7: with these women. At one point, Combs offers Cardello Smith
36:43
Speaker 7: a drink.
36:45
Speaker 1: Hours later, Cardello Smith wakes.
36:47
Speaker 7: Up Combs is having sex with one of the beautiful
36:50
Speaker 7: women that is in.
36:51
Speaker 8: This hotel room, and he looks at Cardillo Smith and says,
36:55
Speaker 8: I did this to you too. That is what Cardillo.
36:58
Speaker 7: Smith claims in this lawsuit that he just won this
37:02
Speaker 7: one hundred million default judgment on Now Combs is denying
37:06
Speaker 7: all of this, of course, but that is the.
37:09
Speaker 8: Claim and as of right now that judgment stands. I
37:13
Speaker 8: make no excuses.
37:14
Speaker 1: My behavior on that video is inexcusable.
37:19
Speaker 5: I'd take full responsibility from my ashes in that video.
37:23
Speaker 1: And then there's the murder of Tupac.
37:27
Speaker 17: Listen, as they were driving west on Flamingo Road near Covalt,
37:31
Speaker 17: they located the black BMW which was driven by Suge Knight,
37:35
Speaker 17: and then the passion sheet was Tupac Shakur. And as
37:38
Speaker 17: they turned around, they pulled up near the pasture's side
37:41

38:06
Speaker 4: carry out the hits, Combs agrees to pay him one
38:09
Speaker 4: million dollars.
38:11
Speaker 2: It's amazing how in all of the money claims that
38:16
Speaker 2: are floating around one hundred million dollar default judgment this lawsuit,
38:20
Speaker 2: that's that lawsuit? What about the murder of Tupac Shakur
38:26
Speaker 2: with me? Renowned trauma experts psychologist Karen Start, Karen, I
38:32
Speaker 2: want you to watch comes on video. It's so difficult
38:37
Speaker 2: to reflect on the darkest times in your life.
38:42
Speaker 11: Sometimes you got to do that.
38:45
Speaker 6: I was, I mean, I hit rock bottom, but I
38:51
Speaker 6: made no excuses.
38:53
Speaker 8: My behavior on that video is inexcusable.
38:57
Speaker 1: I take full responsibility for my ash that video.
39:01
Speaker 2: Then you can just march yourself straight to jail if
39:04
Speaker 2: you take full responsibility. And that video, Combs is responding
39:10
Speaker 2: to another video where he is saying dragging Cassieve Inurior,

Speaker 2: do behind closed doors?
39:35
Speaker 1: He's sorry, He's not sorry. He's not sorry he did it.
39:40
Speaker 1: He's sorry he got caught.
39:43
Speaker 13: Karen's tarn Absolutely, that's it, Nancy, because there is no way.
39:48
Speaker 13: First of all, that is so inauthentic to me. I
39:51
Speaker 13: don't buy it for a moment. But the only reason
39:53
Speaker 13: that he is forced to do that is because it
39:56
Speaker 13: was a recording. He could not deny it. It was
40:00
Speaker 13: very clear that he is a violent man. So I
40:04
Speaker 13: really do believe he has no conscience, he's able to
40:08
Speaker 13: do it all. I don't buy that sad story, do you?
40:12
Speaker 13: It doesn't look authentic.
40:13
Speaker 8: He just has to.
40:15
Speaker 13: Come forward, poor thing, because he got caught.
