I don't know that the state needs a celebrity, a celebrity on behalf of the state. I would say no. There's been a lot alleged that this celeb was there and that celeb was there. We've seen pictures of celebs at the so-called white parties where everybody had to wear white. I doubt you're going to find a celeb get up on the stand and go, oh yeah, I was there when he was raping those women.

I just never said anything. See, I don't think that's going to happen. A, I'm not convinced that it did happen, but B, I don't think a celeb in their right mind would admit to that on the stand. They might say something like, Yeah, I was at the party, but I didn't know all that was going on because that puts them on the hook. So I don't think you're going to get any celeb to say that.

And anybody that does say that, I mean, the person's got to be probative. They've got to be on to prove something. It doesn't matter if they were at the party. The party isn't the felony. It's got to be a witness that is willing to implicate themselves for some type of a deal, some type of immunity.

Although, as you and I have discussed many times, the fact that you don't come forward and volunteer information about a crime, that in itself is not a crime under our jurisprudence. We don't put that duty on someone and make it a crime if you don't come forward. But no, I don't think there's going to be a celeb. I really don't.

Celebs in the sense that they were victims, like Cassie Ventura, she's a celebrity. And many other women, I believe, according to the state, that were in the music industry turned out to be victims in that capacity. I consider them celebrities. Yeah, they're going to come forward, pursue it to subpoena.

They may not want to come forward, but they are because they've been subpoenaed and ordered to by the court.

No, I don't. Unless, well, there is actually a way. If the victim's credibility was so destroyed... that the jury chose not to believe them. Yeah. However, the jury is the sole decider of the facts and the law in the case. And I think it will be very difficult, if not impossible for a jury to disbelieve all of those women and believe one defendant.

Now, some of the women will, they'll all be attacked on cross-examination. Their character will be impugned. The defense will bring forward possible pecuniary or money interests that the witness, the victim may have had. They will attack the victims for not coming forward until Cassie Ventura came forward.
