So today was a big day for the prosecution in terms of proving the racketeering conspiracy. I think today they gave the most amount of evidence having to deal with the racketeering conspiracy, specifically as to the criminal enterprise. You ask at times, who did Sean Combs conspire with? Why is he the only one that's at the table?
Today, you heard from Capricorn Clark that the person that was acting along with Sean Combs at his behest together with Sean Combs, it was his security guard. And that security guard is a person who would normally be considered a co-conspirator and that if they were to charge him, he would be sitting at the table with Sean Combs.
So today, in terms of racketeering conspiracy, they bought the criminal enterprise. They also bought another predicate act having to deal with the kidnapping, and not just on one occasion, but on multiple occasions. The one of going to Kid Cudi's house, but also when she was subjected to going through these lie detector examinations for multiple days in a row.
Well, the prosecution is going to be able to deal with it, not just through Ms. Clark, but also through the other witnesses that testify and also Cassie Ventura testified. So you got to think the defense gave it the spin that they could have with this witness because
capricorn clark was so damaging to the defense that the way that they were able to attack her was dealing with something else having to deal with the coercion factor when you're dealing with cassie ventura but let's not forget though that we have another victim that's going to come in and testify and that is jane so what is your response to jane and how she was actually controlled or not controlled
It was very intense in the courtroom. I was in the courtroom doing her testimony. And let me tell you, in terms of Capricorn Clark, it seems like she was almost crying through her entire direct belt because of her voice and how close she came to tears. Literally, I would say for at least 75 percent of her direct voice.
And this is not the first time that we heard testimony of Sean Combs with a gun. So now you have Sean Combs with a gun kidnapping Capricorn Clark, but guess who else and what other time you heard Sean Combs with a gun? When it came to Mr. James and when he said he got in the car, Sean Combs had three guns in his lap and they were going after Suge Knight. So not a bad light for the defense.
It's now starting to pile up with each witness that comes in to testify.
Yeah, so it's kind of suspect exactly how it happened because she didn't have a 100% accurate recollection of how it went down. But she said at one point when Sean Combs and the security guard were inside of Kid Cudi's home that she took the moment to first call Miss London and also to call Cassie to give them a heads up like, look, Sean Combs is inside of the house. He wants to kill Kid Cudi.
You know, someone do something.
Yeah, but what's material? Because this is the thing, having been a former prosecutor, 16 years, and a defense attorney now and tried over 100 cases, You're never going to get 100% accuracy when you're dealing with multiple witnesses testifying about the most important thing. But is that a problem for the jury, though? No, what's the most important thing is focus on the material fact.
Not minor inconsistencies, the material fact. The material fact, went to the house to try to shoot up Kid Cudi.

Well, the prosecutors, they're doing the best that they can in terms of getting the emotion out there. They want the jury to feel what Cassie felt living in her shoes each of those days that she was part of a freak-off, that she was on drugs, that she was drinking alcohol, that she was beating viciously by Puff Daddy Combs.
So that's what they want because they want that emotional attachment for that jury when they go into deliberations to fight for her and fight for the prosecution to return a guilty verdict.
But they also want the jury to know that, look, she may have been in this relationship for years, but it's because she was under the manipulation and the control of Sean Combs that she remained in that relationship, not knowing any better that she was an actual victim and that she should have walked away.
Well, there not just going to make it clear with Cassie because they are going to call other witnesses. And more importantly, one of the most important witnesses is expert that's going to testify about women that have been abused before and why they will decide to stay in a relationship even though they're being abused by their abuser. So try to explain this type of syndrome.
To me, it's like battered wife syndrome, right? a sexual assault victim, that it takes a while for a person to be strong enough, one, to realize that they were a victim, two, that they're ready to walk away, and three, that they have the power and they'll be okay if they walk away. So you're still going to hear from that witness.
But I think more importantly is that when we're talking about things that you and I would normally think, I wouldn't want to do that. I wouldn't agree to that. When we're talking about having sex while she's on her menstrual cycle, or having sex while she has a sexual UTI, or having sex while someone's urinating on her. Like, it sparks the conscience, shocks the conscience.
So that's one of the main arguments that the prosecution is going to drive through and drive home to the jury at the end of this case to be like, no one in their right mind will agree to this type of behavior.
Absolutely. Absolutely. I mean, the prosecution is not there yet. I think they've made an excellent case for domestic violence. But baby, we are here on federal charges. So you're going to have to prove the racketeering conspiracy. You're going to have to prove the sex trafficking by force, fraud and coercion. You're going to have to prove the transportation to engage in prostitution.
