When Combs' defense attorney got up there to cross-examine him, they said, okay, so you guys pull up to the house, you go inside, and how did you get inside? The officer testified, well, we opened the front door. He's like, OK, so when you got inside, you saw no signs of forced entry. Did you see the house torn apart? The officer says no.

He's like, did you see, you know, anything that would make you think that somebody broke in? No, I didn't really see anything. He didn't see anybody there with a gun. No, you weren't called to the home because there was a kidnapping. No.

Basically, they're poking holes in this idea from Combs' personal assistant that testified yesterday at Capricorn that she was kidnapped, forced to the home of Kid Cudi to break in, that Diddy had a gun. And they're saying, look, you're a police officer. You went to go investigate this. And you basically found a house with the door unlocked and maybe some Christmas presents unwrapped.

But that's all you saw. That's not... kidnapping. There's no forced entry.

Right. So about Two weeks after this alleged trespassing, Kid Cudi's Porsche is parked in his driveway and there's an explosion inside the car. Someone cut the roof of his convertible and dropped something called a Molotov cocktail inside, which we've talked about before.

So the reason today we heard from someone from the Los Angeles Fire Department is this person investigates fires and he found the Molotov cocktail and he sent that off to be tested for DNA and fingerprints.

Yes, Andrea, you're right. There were these fingerprints that were taken at Kid Cudi's home in December. This firefighter, who's also an arson expert, he wanted to look at those fingerprints, but those fingerprints that were sealed into evidence... They were gone. According to this investigator, they were destroyed.

And so the prosecutors start asking him, did you order the destruction of that evidence? He said no. And then they said, well, have you ever in your long career had someone destroy evidence that wasn't at your directive? And he said, absolutely not. And that's where Combs' team swooped in. Objection. And this is huge because the defense... moved for a mistrial. This was such an explosive moment.

My head was like a ping-pong ball watching Diddy's legal team get into this massive argument with New York prosecutors. They sent the jury out of the room, and Combs' team was like, we're moving for a mistrial. This is outrageous prejudice to the jury because you're insinuating that Diddy, because he's so powerful and he has connections...

to potentially the LAPD or the LAFD that somebody at his directive went in there and destroyed it. And even if you strike this from the record, the jury still heard it and they can never unhear it. And it was this back and forth.
