0:29
Speaker 1: that today, y'all because Diddy court opening statements. There's so
0:34

0:40
Speaker 1: I want to get.
0:41
Speaker 2: Into the updates. Let's get on into it all right, y'all.
0:45
Speaker 1: Now we need to talk, okay, because let me tell
0:48
Speaker 1: you something. Let me tell you something right here. If
0:52
Speaker 1: what I witness today in court is the way that
0:55
Speaker 1: the rest of this trial is going to go for Puff,
0:59
Speaker 1: he not gonna see that maximum jail time they talk about.
1:02
Speaker 2: His lawyers don't play with them at all.
1:05
Speaker 1: Like this was the first day of opening statements and
1:08
Speaker 1: the first time you heard any witness testimony, right, I
1:11
Speaker 1: honestly for one day and think we won't get to
1:13
Speaker 1: any witness sestimonies because I thought the opening statements were
1:15
Speaker 1: going to be so long. The prosecutors they came out swinging,
1:19
Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna hold you. So court started around
1:22
Speaker 1: like nine thirty five am. I was in the overflow
1:25
Speaker 1: room for the first half and then I actually made
1:26
Speaker 1: it into the real courtroom. Diddy was dressed in all
1:29
Speaker 1: gray with all right button up. He actually did get
1:31
Speaker 1: his haircut a little bit. His facial hair was trimmed
1:33
Speaker 1: up a little bit. So the prosecutors opened his thing
1:36
Speaker 1: up with their opening statements and in their opening statements,
1:38
Speaker 1: and the prosecutors, for those of you guys who do
1:40
Speaker 1: not know, are the people that think Diddy belongs in jail.
1:43
Speaker 1: The government opening statements actually begin with he's a cultural icon.
1:47
Speaker 1: He's Diddy, He's larger than life. But there was another
1:50
Speaker 1: side of him. That was the opening line of the
1:52
Speaker 1: prosecutor's statements. So from there you already know where they're
1:55
Speaker 1: going with Diddy started with Cassie, but they didn't start
1:59
Speaker 1: with the video. Prosecutors talked about a night where Cassie,
2:02
Speaker 1: you know, basically he had found out that Puff was
2:05
Speaker 1: dealing with another woman, and she was like, you know,
2:07
Speaker 1: I'm out of here, and she went to gon Be
2:09
Speaker 1: with another man, that man Alex find who is her
2:11
Speaker 1: now husband, who I actually saw in court today. So
2:14
Speaker 1: I thought at one point Cassie was going to testify today,
2:17
Speaker 1: but it didn't happen. But they talk about how Diddy
2:20
Speaker 1: when he found out this, got his gun when and
2:22
Speaker 1: got you know, a couple of people that work with
2:24
Speaker 1: him and wait to go find Cassie, like he was
2:26
Speaker 1: on like this rage allegedly, like the prosecutors was like,
2:30
Speaker 1: if y'all think y'all know, we about to tell y'all
2:32
Speaker 1: something new right here right now. Prosecutors use their opening
2:36
Speaker 1: statement time to introduce a lot of new information the
2:40
Speaker 1: defendants did he side didn't do that.
2:42
Speaker 2: So prosecutors let us know number.
2:45
Speaker 1: One that there is a woman named Mia, right, and
2:48
Speaker 1: this woman named Mia is a woman who used to
2:51
Speaker 1: work for Puff.
2:52
Speaker 2: She was his one of his personal assistants.
2:55
Speaker 1: And the prosecutors say that Mia will testify in an
2:59
Speaker 1: alleging that he was sexually assaulted by Diddy, and that
3:03
Speaker 1: she basically all of these years was scared to come
3:05
Speaker 1: out because of the power and.
3:08
Speaker 2: Influence of Puff.
3:09
Speaker 1: There was an escort that got on the stand as
3:12
Speaker 1: a witness during this testimony. This escort talked about being
3:18
Speaker 1: made to Pete and Cassie's mouth. But this witness says
3:23
Speaker 1: that it was Cassie who asked him to do that.
3:26
Speaker 2: Now, and that Cassie set in video.
3:28
Speaker 1: Now this was te And this is why I'm saying
3:31
Speaker 1: Puff's attorneys ain't nothing to be fooled with, Okay, because
3:34
Speaker 1: let me tell y'all. So the scene in video from
3:37
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, this video, I think people keep bringing into
3:40
Speaker 1: a question, And for me, I knew that even though
3:45
Speaker 1: they were saying like they they were trying to figure
3:46
Speaker 1: out how they were going to use it in the
3:48
Speaker 1: beginning of all this, right we had that conversation, I
3:51
Speaker 1: knew that they were gonna have to be very strategic
3:53
Speaker 1: about how they used it. This day is the prosecutors,
3:55
Speaker 1: because he's not being charged with domestic violence, so the
4:00
Speaker 1: prosecutors brought that in by bringing a witness.
4:03
Speaker 2: Uh. The witness was a man who was a security
4:05
Speaker 2: guard at the Intercontinental.
4:07
Speaker 1: The security guard when he's being questioned by the prosecutors,
4:12
Speaker 1: they established like, oh, he was a former LAPD officer,
4:15
Speaker 1: or he's a he's an LAPD officer.
4:17
Speaker 2: Now he was a former head of security.
4:20
Speaker 1: Uh, and are doing all of this because you know,
4:23
Speaker 1: when you're had a security working at a high level
4:25
Speaker 1: place like the Intercontinental, there are certain things that you
4:27
Speaker 1: got a bye by very strictly. Now that you're a
4:30
Speaker 1: LAPD officer, you take an oath to protect and serve.
4:33
Speaker 1: They're trying to establish his integrity. Now this security guard
4:37
Speaker 1: from the Intercontinental, right, he is met what he was.
4:42
Speaker 1: He was like an assistant director or something like that. Like,
4:45
Speaker 1: so he was like leadership. He wasn't the boss, but
4:47
Speaker 1: he was leadership, right, So he still reported to somebody,
4:49
Speaker 1: but he was leadership.
4:50
Speaker 2: Right. So this man, they do a lot of questioning.
4:56
Speaker 1: He goes down on the the you know, recounting what
4:59
Speaker 1: he remember from the video. He alleged when he's talking
5:02
Speaker 1: to prosecutors that you know, when he was called upstairs,
5:06
Speaker 1: he hadn't viewed the video.
5:07
Speaker 2: First, so he didn't know that they were actually physically fighting.
5:09
Speaker 1: But when he got up there, Cassie had had a
5:12
Speaker 1: purple eye. He says that, you know, he had told
5:16
Speaker 1: them that they had to go back in the room
5:18
Speaker 1: just because he didn't see it hisself. Cassie was saying
5:20
Speaker 1: that she wanted to leave, and Puff was saying that
5:23
Speaker 1: she couldn't leave allegedly, and he.
5:24
Speaker 2: Was like, no, she's going to leave or she wants
5:26
Speaker 2: to leave. Right.
5:28
Speaker 1: He also alleged that when he walked them back to
5:31
Speaker 1: their room that they were saying in that he saw
5:34
Speaker 1: another man in the room sitting on the bed. Now
5:37
Speaker 1: that's important because remember, Cassie is alleging that that video
5:41
Speaker 1: was her trying to get away from one of the
5:43
Speaker 1: freak offs.
5:45
Speaker 2: The defense is alleging, no, there was no freak off happening.
5:49
Speaker 1: Y'all got into it over a phone, and this was
5:51
Speaker 1: a toxic response from both sides that we saw on
5:56
Speaker 1: that video. So the man is like, Okay, Cassie to
6:00
Speaker 1: get out of there. She wants to go. I'm trying
6:02
Speaker 1: to help her get out of there.
6:03
Speaker 2: Boom.
6:04
Speaker 1: That's how he's talking to prosecutors. Baby Brian still got
6:07
Speaker 1: up there talking on Puffs behalf. First thing he said
6:11
Speaker 1: was he said, okay, so you're allegend that you know
6:15
Speaker 1: you were you were second to the head of security
6:21
Speaker 1: at the time, right, you worked for a company and
6:23
Speaker 1: in Securitas.
6:24
Speaker 2: He's like yeah.
6:25
Speaker 1: So Brian still was like, okay, well, would you say
6:28
Speaker 1: that your incident reports are basically like Bible like y'all
6:32
Speaker 1: lived by that.
6:33
Speaker 2: You put everything there.
6:34
Speaker 1: It has to be honest, it has to be clear,
6:36
Speaker 1: has to be very information in the beginning of it,
6:39
Speaker 1: says someone. He said, they said to the w's the who, what, when, where, why?
6:43
Speaker 1: To give all the information because these incident reports can
6:46
Speaker 1: be used if someone tries to suit a hotel, if
6:49
Speaker 1: they need to take further action against someone's sending in
6:51
Speaker 1: the hotel, and to just let you know what I mean, like,
6:54
Speaker 1: let the rest of the team know what's going on. Right.
6:58
Speaker 1: So you're like, Kiah, yep, one hundred percent what you're
7:01
Speaker 1: saying is correct, Missus Steele, this is this is the witness.
7:04
Speaker 1: So Brian Steell was like, okay, well, I got a
7:07
Speaker 1: few questions for you. Then you allege that Cassie had
7:10
Speaker 1: a purple y. Why wasn't that in your incident report?
7:15
Speaker 1: You allege that you were trying to, you know what
7:17
Speaker 1: I mean, help her lead because Puff, because Puff didn't
7:19
Speaker 1: want her to leave.
7:21
Speaker 2: Why wasn't done in your incident report.
7:25
Speaker 1: There was so many different things that they caught him
7:27
Speaker 1: up on yo, like I was sitting there like oh,
7:32
Speaker 1: and then right, he had alleged when the prosecutors that Cassie.
7:38
Speaker 2: Was trying to leave. When Brian Steell can't want to stand.
7:41
Speaker 1: Brian Steel was like, oh, we wait, because you had
7:46
Speaker 1: said that Puff was telling you that.
7:50
Speaker 2: He wanted her to leave, So what are we going
7:52
Speaker 2: by here? Now? I'm not gonna lie.
7:55
Speaker 1: Prosecutors did their big when they came back. They didn't
7:57
Speaker 1: really say too much in response to that. Instead, they
7:59
Speaker 1: replace the video again of Diddy dragging Cassie back to
8:03
Speaker 1: the room. Basically like, ain't no way you wanted to leaving?
8:05
Speaker 1: You dragging her back to the room, right, And they
8:07
Speaker 1: mike dropped after that. But the way Brian still caught
8:10
Speaker 1: this man up on a cornst examination. Now let me
8:12
Speaker 1: just say too, the prosecutors themselves, they put all their
8:17
Speaker 1: stuff out in the front. So the man from the hotel,
8:21
Speaker 1: he there was the original video and then he recorded
8:24
Speaker 1: the video to then show to his wife. And they
8:27
Speaker 1: asked him like, well, why would you record the video
8:29
Speaker 1: to then show to your wife? And he was like
8:30
Speaker 1: because basically after they had been sit I saw, I
8:33
Speaker 1: knew that if I just said it, nobody would believe me.
8:37
Speaker 1: So he knows, like he said, he didn't know who
8:38
Speaker 1: Cassie was, but he knew who Puff was, right, so
8:41
Speaker 1: he knows that this is like a big deal because
8:42
Speaker 1: of who's involved.
8:44
Speaker 2: So Brian still was then making.
8:45
Speaker 1: A point that like, Yo, so you're sitting here telling
8:48
Speaker 1: me that you remember all these details.
8:49
Speaker 2: You remember a purple eye that you're testa find too.
8:53
Speaker 1: You know all these things on the stand from nine
8:56
Speaker 1: years ago. But in your incident report at the time
8:59
Speaker 1: of the what you knew was a big deal because
9:02
Speaker 1: you had people talking to you about your He said
9:04
Speaker 1: his employees were coming in to work accidency the video.
9:06
Speaker 2: So yeah, people at your job talking to you about it.
9:07
Speaker 1: You recorded it to make sure you could show your
9:09
Speaker 1: wife because you didn't think she was gonna believe you,
9:11
Speaker 1: But you didn't detail everything in your incident report that
9:14
Speaker 1: you're now on this stand claiming I.
9:17
Speaker 2: Said, oh that what is done. He's no longer to
9:20
Speaker 2: look a valid no more. And this is the same
9:23
Speaker 2: man that you know what I mean?
9:24
Speaker 1: Was saying, Hey, Puff offered me all his money allegedly
9:27
Speaker 1: to get rid of the video, and that's what he
9:32
Speaker 1: said the prosecutors. Brian still got to understand and said, wait,
9:36
Speaker 1: you told us that from the minute you stepped off
9:38
Speaker 1: the elevator, when all this was happening, you kept reminding
9:42
Speaker 1: Diddy he's gonna have to.
9:43
Speaker 2: Pay for all of this, everything that they messed up.
9:46
Speaker 1: So then you tell me that the minute you step
9:48
Speaker 1: in his room, he offers you money, and you instantly
9:51
Speaker 1: assumed that it was to cover up a video because
9:56
Speaker 1: from what I'm hearing, he offered you money because you
10:00
Speaker 1: told me he had to pay for a bunch of stuff.
10:03
Speaker 2: Yo, they was. I'm trying to tell y'all right now,
10:07
Speaker 2: Diddy's legal team is not coming to play.
10:12
Speaker 1: The prosecutors their their witness testimony has to get stronger
10:17
Speaker 1: because today, even with the male escort, it was like
10:21
Speaker 1: they had a good setup and it was doing so well,
10:24
Speaker 1: and then Diddy's attorneys would come in and then boom,
10:27
Speaker 1: Now they're looking a little all over the place or
10:31
Speaker 1: fanned out. To be honest with you, like the male
10:33
Speaker 1: esport said at one point he didn't even care if
10:37
Speaker 1: he wasn't being paid at certain points because he was
10:39
Speaker 1: just so excited to be a part of Diddy and
10:41
Speaker 1: Cassie's lifestyle. He didn't know who Cassie was, but she
10:43
Speaker 1: was gorgeous. He didn't find out until later, but of
10:45
Speaker 1: course he knew who did he was, even though he
10:47
Speaker 1: says his first couple of times meaning Diddy did he did,
10:49
Speaker 1: he would cover his face allegedly with a bandana and
10:52
Speaker 1: wear a baseball cat but he was like he knew
10:54
Speaker 1: when he heard his voice who he was, but he
10:57
Speaker 1: never saw his face until Puff got comfortable allegedly, right right.
11:01
Speaker 1: But that whole thing with the your nation blew up
11:04
Speaker 1: the prosecutor's case because the prosecutors let their opening statement like, yo,
11:08
Speaker 1: Cassie's gonna get understand herself and tell y'all this man
11:10
Speaker 1: took it as far as to make another man pete
11:12
Speaker 1: in her mouth. And you get an escort on the
11:16
Speaker 1: escort on the stand who says, no, Cassie asked me
11:21
Speaker 1: to do that. Allegedly, we're gonna pick back up.
11:25
Speaker 2: Tomorrow with the escort. They ran out of time today
11:28
Speaker 2: in court with the escort. But man, listen, they're like, look,
11:32
Speaker 2: Puff is everything.
11:33
Speaker 1: The prosecutors, I mean, the defense is like, look here,
11:36
Speaker 1: everything y'all think he, you know, abused drugs at one point.
11:40
Speaker 2: He was. He don't know how to control his anger.
11:42
Speaker 1: He was an abuser of women domestically, but he did not.
11:47
Speaker 1: He's not a sex trafficker. He and an arsonist. He
11:50
Speaker 1: everything that he's in court for today. Nah, we not
11:53
Speaker 1: seeing on that.
11:55
Speaker 2: I now understand why Puff did not take that plea deal.
12:00
Speaker 1: Not even gonna lie. It's gonna take some major comming.
12:03
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying it's to say that I know
12:05
Speaker 1: he's guilty or not. I'm telling y'all the sparring that
12:07
Speaker 1: i'll watch in court today, that man's legal team is
12:10
Speaker 1: gonna be if it go, If the rest of court
12:13
Speaker 1: goes anything like today, that man's legal team will be
12:16
Speaker 1: the reason why he does not serve that full sentence.
12:20
Speaker 2: They did not come to play, did not.
12:24
Speaker 1: Thank y'all so much for tuning in with me. I
12:25
