I don't think the court's going to let them to get into all of this information. I just think they will. And that's kind of what the defense is doing, the little sly thing the defense is saying is like, hey, judge, you let this in, we're going to be here a while. And Judges are people too. A lot of judges will say that. Why do you need it? There's a difference between wanting it and needing it.

And if they're allowed to spend six of these eight weeks, notice I said eight weeks, six of these eight weeks talking about how awful of a human being Mr. Combs is and all the awful stuff that he has done. At some point in time, when the jury starts hearing the other information, it's like, I don't care if he did this, but he's done so much other stuff, it's time for him to go. And they do that.

Any other defense attorney, I promise you would have asked for a continuance. I think Combs is running the train. He's like, I don't want a continuance. I want to go forward. I'm tired of being in jail. Let's do this. Any other defense attorney would have asked for a continuance. And the government, I promise you, would have consented to it. They're like, OK, it's wild. We're this quick.

That's a lot to unpack. One, a lot of states don't have a quote unquote good Samaritan law, which requires you to report a crime. There's no duty. I mean, as much as we say we want you to report and do something about a crime, there's nothing to say that you don't have to just walk away when you see a crime has occurred.

Naming these specific witnesses is for one reason and one reason only sensationalism. And it's kind of disgusting because if you read lawsuits, you don't mention witnesses. You say a witness. I mean, it's very easy just to mention a witness saw blank, a witness saw blank. So putting these names out there is for one reason, one reason alone. It's for sensationalism.
