The Trial: USA · Diddy’s Life Is On The Line · 4 Apr 2025 podcast

And I'm Marjorie Hernandez, DailyMail.com's West Coast news editor.

That's right, Kayla. One of the many sexual assault lawsuits filed against Diddy was dismissed on Monday, March 31st. Jane Doe had claimed Diddy attempted to sexually assault her while at a party in New York in 1995. She also alleged that Diddy hit her when she refused his advances. Her attorney, Tony Busby, filed her suit back in October 2024.

Then in January this year, Busby filed a motion for Doe to proceed anonymously.

Diddy's legal team asserted to the Daily Mail that this dismissal is what they see as a sign of what's to come with other pending cases. Their statement reads, quote, Today, a federal judge dismissed a lawsuit filed against Mr. Combs by Texas attorney Tony Busby and his local counsel Antigone Curris on behalf of an anonymized plaintiff.

This is now the second case brought by these attorneys against Mr. Combs that has been dismissed in its entirety. It will not be the last. For months, we have seen case after case filed by individuals hiding behind anonymity, pushed forward by attorneys more focused on media headlines than legal merit. The other claims, like one dismissed today, also will not hold up in a court of law.

And as we record this on Wednesday, it's 40 days until the trial itself begins, but only 33 days until May 5th when jury selection starts. So what better time could there be to welcome this week's guest, New York-based jury consultant and lawyer Renato Stabile.

Well, obviously we are anxiously waiting for this trial to start and your company does jury consulting. And I was hoping that you can break that down for us. What do you and your partners do in helping someone like Diddy prepare for a huge trial like this?

So what kind of questions would you ask these potential jurors on this guest jury questionnaire?

They do their own background checks on these potential jurors.

Right. I was wondering about that. How deep do these investigations go into the potential jurors? Is it just merely the social media post or do they check, oh, he's related to this person or this person has an NYPD connection or?

Wow.

There's obviously some folks who might not want to be on a jury, but there could be because of this high profile case would want to be on the case because of the celebrity factor of it. And I was wondering, how do you parse those people out?

How about in terms of gender in a case like this? He is facing three charges, racketeering, sex trafficking and interstate commerce or prostitution. Will potential jurors genders also factor in?

Nadia, you mentioned testing, doing background research on potential jurors, but actual mock trial, does that happen as well? And in a big case like that, is that something you think Diggie's team is looking into?

I found it interesting because TMZ actually did their own mock jury. It was very interesting because they actually had an issue with the racketeering charge because they were thinking about how did he have profited from this crime?

And I was just wondering if you are in Diddy's team or really the prosecution's team also, would that be something that you could somehow prepare for when picking a juror?

What they do have, the prosecution has, is that tape of Cassie that went viral. Can you talk a little bit about how that could factor into this case?

Yeah, you talked a little bit about that, touched on it a little bit earlier, but can you talk about the process of our deal?

Wow. So this normally takes one or two days on a normal trial, but you think in two weeks, the whole process can actually move forward and we'll have an actual jury?

Now, would the questionnaire or even maybe during Vaadir, would this come up in terms of the other cases involving Diddy? Obviously, he's facing this criminal case, but there have been dozens and dozens of civil lawsuits filed against him. It's out there almost every day. There's a new one filed. And I was wondering how that plays into picking a jury.
