What happened in the Manhattan courtroom at the Diddy trial and who is Simone Redwine?
Hello, everyone. Welcome to Lemon Live at 5. Thank you so much for joining. We're a little bit late because you guys know I like to switch things up. And I often do it at the last minute here. So again, welcome to the program. We're going to talk about what is happening in a Manhattan courtroom, obviously in Manhattan, in New York City. We're going to discuss that, and we're going to speak to someone who is a courtroom insider who's going to give us some exclusive details and information about what is happening in the Diddy trial. Explosive testimony today, okay? It has been a few days since we covered this, the trial of Sean Diddy Combs, but we wanted to touch back. to touch back in this evening because we have some explosive, as I said, details and information developments in the courtroom.
Later this hour, too, we're going to also talk about MAGA's war on the LGBTQ Pride Month and LGBTQ rights in general, okay? But first, joining me now is Simone Redwine. She is a trial attorney, law professor, and a legal analyst. Simone, thank you for joining us.
Thank you so much, Don. I'm so happy to be here.
Yes, she's been in the courtroom almost every day. In the first couple of days, she was not there. But you've been in the courtroom every single day. Can you take us inside of that courtroom? And what is the mood like, Simone?
Yeah, the mood in the courtroom is actually pretty tense. There has been developed camaraderie from a lot of the people that come each day to watch the trial. But I'd say about 40% of those watching the trial are the press. And then the rest, it's a combo. There are YouTubers, influencers, and they're just community members. So it's a whole mod podge. And then you've got people who are just very adamant Diddy fans. And then you've got some that are anti-Diddy. I mean, there have been fights in line. It gets lively now. It gets lively over there.
Fights in line for what? For the folks who are waiting to get in?
Yeah, waiting to get in, like accusing people of skipping. But then other people have also gotten into it over their viewpoints, disagreeing on, you know, whether or not Diddy is guilty or whether or not certain evidence should be admissible or if someone's lying. It gets really heated sometimes.
Yeah. OK, so listen, today testifying were who?
So today they're with Mia. That's her alias. Mia is a assistant for Diddy. She also worked for Revolt Films for from about 2009 to 2017. We had Mia and then we also had an executive with the Beverly Hills Hotel who talked about basically about, you know, how Diddy would leave the rooms after the freak offs. And how they had to charge him, in one instance, they had to charge him $300 for deep cleaning of drapes, because apparently they had blood and fluids on them, as well as, quote, $500 for oil damage. More oil. More oil. More oil. More oil.
And it gets explicit because you're talking about, you said, bodily fluids, blood, and other substances, correct? Correct. Which we can know what that possibility means. Okay. And so we had heard before that they would, at some hotels, would take the rooms out of use, right, offline, so that they could do a deep clean after Diddy was there.
Correct. Correct. And this testimony also added the name of another S worker, Dominique Neal. They stated that he was also in the room with Cassie. Those are some of the facts that help prove up the transportation for prostitution. They just need to be able to show that he hired sex workers that were in different states or transported them.
As we look through some of these photographs that are some of these court sketches, because there are no cameras allowed in the courtroom. Talk to us about. So Mia is a former assistant to Kitty. Explain to our audience and explain what she said in the courtroom today. And also, did the prosecution do a good job of presenting their case?
Got it. So today's testimony was cross-examination for Mia. Now on direct, Mia revealed a variety of facts, but basically she talked about how toxic the work environment was for Diddy.
