Absolutely. I also thought it was interesting that from the moment that Cassie came into the courtroom, she would glance at her husband, Alex, when she walked in. While she's being questioned, she is looking very pointedly at the prosecutor. She does not look at Diddy. She is not looking over at the defense table. In between questions, I've seen her glance at the jury.

I've seen her look down at her hands or at the screen in front of her, even when there's nothing on it. But it's notable that she hasn't made any eye contact with Sean Combs.

How to present them, who gets to see them, ABC was actually part of a coalition of news organizations that argued that the media, or at least a small pool of journalists, should be able to see these videos so that we can describe what's in it, report on it, but not to actually publish the images or videos. The judge said no.

So only the jurors, the witness, Cassie, were able to look at these still images on screens in front of them. The attorneys had hard copies of the images in a binder. I wonder what you make of that decision.

There were definitely reactions from the jury during some of the really graphic points. At one point when Cassie was describing being urinated on, I saw several jurors look down at the floor and shake their heads. They looked a little disgusted.

During Cassie's testimony, when jurors were given the opportunity to see still images from videos of freak-offs, there were a couple of jurors I noticed would look at the screens in front of them and look away pretty quickly, like they didn't really want to look closely. Something else that I noticed during Cassie's testimony that wasn't as graphic, the jurors are riveted. Their eyes are on her.
