And that's the problem is when everybody's got an opinion, but people don't rely on the law and the law. And we're making these assumptions that all the government is doing is proving a case of domestic violence, which, yes, they have. This is domestic violence. But as I mentioned, the judge is going to tell the jury there are certain things required for sex trafficking and it's not a lot.
He's going to say at the beginning of trial, you took an oath to follow the law. This is that law. One, is there a person involved? Check. That person is Cassie. Did somebody use force, coercion, or something to get them to engage in a commercial sex act? Yes, she testified force was used. What is a commercial sex act?
A commercial sex act is basically engaging in sex for money or anything of value. They're going to say, yes, they did. And then the last thing is, and this is what I think is interesting, is the entire defense is going to come on, knew or should have known. Meaning, did the defendant know that he was engaging in coercion?
Or should he have known that what he was doing was coercing through physical activity? And that's it. That is all they've got to prove. And I guarantee you, if you go back to the testimony now in your head, you're like, yeah, that's why they asked that question. That's why they asked that question.
And when I read the law, like if I read the charge, it was like, and I think I have it in front of me somewhere. The last line of the charge, the judge will say, third, the defendant's acts were in or affecting interstate law. or foreign commerce within the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States. That's why that's in there. That's why they did it.
One, everybody like there's a famous case in the United States of America. It's a case of guy Al Capone. The United States got Al Capone basically on tax fraud, but not all the awful stuff that he's done. I'm not saying that that's what they're doing the ditty, but people tend to forget this Cassie charge. If they stopped and they said today, you know what, judge, we don't want to go any further.
And they said, we want the jury to convict him of just the sex trafficking and the elements I just told you. 60 months is five years. 120 months is 10 years. So you can assume if they just stop here, they've convicted him of a 15 year offense without even getting into the RICO. And number two, the reason they're not it's not that they're not getting into the RICO is I made the joke.
Cassie is 11 teen months pregnant. If they didn't start with her right now, there's a real chance that she would have had this baby. And who knows where we are?
Yeah, he is. And that's why, if I'm not mistaken, they also had one of the sex workers who were also testifying that there was a freak off going on. But you're exactly right. That's why I think he's going to testify. Because he is the one who's going to have to explain this is what was really going on, not what she was saying. Because she has made the government's case. This was a freak-off.
I was leading the freak-off. He beat me. And let's... To make it easier for the law, let's call it what it was. I was leaving a commercial sex act because that's what the law is. We call them a free cost, but for the statute, I was leaving a commercial sex act. I didn't want to participate. Somebody was getting paid and he was beating me up and making me go backwards. Check.
Element, element, element, element, element.
And this is what the judge is going to tell the jury. He's going to say the government must prove each of the following elements beyond a reasonable doubt. And that's a strong burden. Make that clear. Beyond any doubt, a reasonable doubt. And if a jury is like, huh. And the second element, the defendant, Puffy Combs, knew.
That forced threat or force or fraud or coercion or any combination would be used to get her to engage in a commercial sex act. If he's saying, look, in my mind, reading these text messages, she wanted it. This is what she told me she wants. This is me assuming she is putting in writing. So how am I supposed to not think she wants it?
If that would have happened in opening statements, I guarantee you the government would have said, you are going to see a video of this woman doing blank.
And this is the great thing about press conferences, opening statements. None of that's evidence. You can say whatever the heck you want until it's presented. And I tell everybody until I see it in the trial, it ain't evidence to me. There is a real chance here. Diddy and Cassie can both be telling the truth.
Diddy 100% believed that she was into it by the text messages, and Cassie's like, I just wrote this because I hate him. They both could be telling the truth. So in his mind, he could be like, why is she saying this? I've got these text messages. I love you. I care about you. Now, freak offs are the best thing that's ever happened to me.
And in her mind is, I don't want to get beat anymore, so I'm writing everything. So in his mind, he might be like, I'm not pleading guilty.
The great thing about what I believe is our American justice system is any human could serve on our jury. And we're not in their bedrooms. There could be people who we don't know who have certain fetishes. They could have certain proclivities, if you will, that could lend themselves to siding with the evidence presented against Diddy. I'm not saying it is. I'm not saying it isn't.
But they could have proclivities that they could look at this evidence through their own lens. The judge said, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, you bring your own individual wisdom to the jury and you use it. And given the fact you don't know who it is, some people could get on there and just say, that's OK to me.
My personal belief in knowing the lawyers on this team the way that I know them, given that there are seven lawyers, I promise you they are scouring social media for other commentary and people of that nature. And remember, we don't know what this 12 jury is actually seeing. And, you know, John Q. Public, how many times have you seen it on social media?
