I just feel like... Do you know who the legal advisor was for that movie? No. You're looking at her.

Well, in the legal case right now, Sean Diddy Combs is a defendant in a federal racketeering case. And that's a really serious case. And he is charged with running a criminal enterprise that involves sex trafficking, bribery, kidnapping, assault, a range of activity where basically he would allegedly use women. He would pay them off in order to have his freak off parties.

No, it's actually not a legal defense. It's sort of a phrase to say, oh, well, they both agree to this behavior and therefore where's the harm? And I think as Bev previewed, there's a lot of harm and people don't always agree. They feel pressured to agree. So you won't find in the law books a mutual abuse defense.

What you'll see are defendants arguing, well, I really thought that the victim was consenting because they were doing it to me and therefore I could do it to them. It is not okay in the criminal law world to to abuse somebody and then say, well, they're at fault too.

Well, I think the defense here is just trying to reframe this whole case as this other world that the jury might not be familiar with, where people engage in these types of sexual activities and even abusive activities, and that the government has just put them on trial for being different. The prosecutors have to remind them that this case is about real harm, harm to victims.

And victims, frankly, even if they're pressured, they can't give away their well-being, their physical well-being. The law is there to protect them. So I think the defense here is trying to reframe this as, gee, that's just how the world of rock and roll works. And these people wanted to be part of it. So they're not truly victims.
