And it's making me think of the, the lady in France, whose husband, I don't going to pronounce her name wrong, but whose husband drugged her and had men rape her. Right. And she's like, I'm not doing this anonymously because this isn't my shame. This is his. And I want to make sure everyone knows who did it and what he did. And I feel like in that way, Right. Right.
I mean, at some point, probably we will know who those other victims are, right? It's not necessarily they can stay anonymous and hide behind this. And it's something that the internet makes permanent, so they'll have it forever. So it's really focusing on their holistic well-being and making sure that there's support around them before, during, and after trial.
Because you can't really prep someone for something like that.
It's going to be tough. And especially since he's saying it's all consensual, we can imagine the inflammatory things he's going to say to describe these women, to say that, you know, like the behavior in these cases, what he's basically saying is they love
performative sex while intoxicated doing violent things in front of a million famous people like it's the leaps they're gonna have to go to describe is gonna truly be like a character shift on them and so I think that trial aspect of it is going to be interesting and we're going to have to just really trust juries that it's not 2000 anymore and hopefully they know better.
And that video should be really helpful to show like, what do you mean this is consensual? Hopefully we can trust them to really see through it. And the stressor is all they need to do is convince one guy and the prosecutors have to convince all 12. But I'm pretty confident we're going to hopefully have a jury that can see through some of that.
Yeah, definitely. So I like to describe human trafficking as like really extreme domestic violence with sexual assault. You know, it's got so much coercive control that's present in domestic violence. So evidence of domestic violence is relevant to sex trafficking cases. And his main argument is she loved it and she's consenting to all of this. So
that video directly contradicts any sort of real defense he could have. And I think it also makes them seem a little monstrous. Like the jury is going to be like, oh, because his defense attorney argued it's an unfortunate domestic dispute. So in their mind, that's just normal in a domestic dispute. And it calls to question for any moral jury to be like,
oh, you're not saying you didn't do any of those things. You just think they're normal and okay. You know, it's going to just really reframe it for them because that was extreme violence in that video. It wasn't like a yelling match or a slap. So I do think the video is really compelling evidence. And if it got excluded, I do think it would like seriously impact the case.
But we don't know what other evidence they have also. That's just the piece that went viral. So there's potentially abundant other similar pieces.
So I really do hope they get the chance to testify because I think it seems that at this point, if they're ready to come forward, they've had a lot of healing and they're able. And I think if they're not... could impact them emotionally and personally if their story doesn't get to be part of the consequences that he experiences.
But most probably, if there is a conviction, prosecution will allow them at least at sentencing to testify, and there's not really a limit on how many victims can come forward. So if there's a conviction, they should get a chance then. But I think that it also kind of highlights how when prosecution isn't taken seriously on gender-based violence, this is what happens.
Finally, there's some sort of reckoning happening for P. Diddy, but most of his victims never got a chance the last 20-something years, and they're still not getting a chance now because we never took it seriously back then. Charged their case and allowed them to have that paper trail that made it justifiable to now argue statute of limitations has passed there's so many limitations now and
because we just couldn't be bothered. That's kind of what really bothers me when he finally got arrested. And I was like, oh, surprise. Nobody's surprised by this. But my only surprise is like, why are we finally doing it? You know, and what took so long to get it done?
So that is one area of the injustice that some of these victims aren't going to have their voice heard, even though they're ready to, because the system this whole time just hasn't supported them.
If you liked this episode, we think you'll love this.
I'm actually surprised there haven't been any yet. And I'm wondering if part of it is that they're witnesses and we'll see those outcomes after the trial. And the charges are dependent on whether they decide to flip for Diddy or not, because it doesn't quite make sense that Rico's charged and he's the only defendant. And I think that that's one also huge gap over the last 25 years that...
We don't pursue these cases from an organized crime perspective. And so they become a he said, she said case when it's not that, right? And so when I looked at the motions, the evidence that prosecution's intending to present appears that they've handled this really well. They have investigated the full organized crime. They have the financial records.
And so they should have the other co-conspirators involved. So here's hoping that after this trial, we'll see who else is being held accountable and that they actually do get held accountable because there's also the potential, right? Like, oh, you testified. We got the big fish so you can have a year of probation.
It's like, what's their disincentive from behaving like this again if that's the only consequence? So there should be other charges coming, hopefully, and with hopefully real consequences.
