In 2022, a group of divers were sucked into an oil pipe and trapped deep beneath the sea. They could have been saved, but they weren't. Following their story has led us to lucrative contracts, failing safety standards and secretive political relationships. As we ask, why were those men left to die? This is Pipeline.

At the height of his career, Sean Diddy Combs had it all. Everything Diddy touched turned to gold. Now he faces multiple federal charges in New York, including sex trafficking and allegedly running a criminal enterprise.
Unknown 1:20
Another woman has now come forward, alleging Combs of sexual assault. Music mogul and rapper Sean Diddy. He claims she was drugged and sexually assaulted by Combs. Oh, this guy is dangerous.
Kayla Brantley 1:32
From freak-offs to the mysterious list, the shocking case that has gripped the world is finally here. And we'll be bringing you every detail as it happens. Welcome to The Trial of Diddy. Welcome back to The Trial of Diddy. We are now in week four of this trial, and as always, the bombshells just keep on coming.
Germania Rodriguez-Poleo 1:55
Yeah, in fact, today chaos erupted in the courtroom when a woman started yelling in support of Diddy and had to be escorted out.
Kayla Brantley 2:03
We'll hear how the rapper paid a security guard at the Intercontinental Hotel $100,000 and made him sign an NDA in return for the footage of his March 2016 attack on Cassie.
Germania Rodriguez-Poleo 2:14
And also how Diddy fist-bumped the air at his lawyer's aggressive cross-examination of the personal assistant he allegedly raped and sexually assaulted. Welcome to the trial of Diddy. Are you done?
Kayla Brantley 2:33
So on Friday, we brought you the start of Mia's evidence. Mia is, of course, the personal assistant who claims Diddy raped and sexually assaulted her several times. Mia is using a pseudonym that is not her real name. And she was on the stand for three days. And we're going to hear a lot more from her spiky cross-examination later in today's episode. But before we get into the evidence, we should just tell you about an incident that happened in the courtroom Tuesday when a woman in the public gallery started yelling and shouting, quote, at the system. She said, quote, Diddy, these mother effers are laughing at you in every courtroom. Now, she said this before the judge swiftly asked security to escort her out.
Germania Rodriguez-Poleo 3:12
Kayla, this is interesting because yesterday the Washington Post reported that there were supporters of Diddy in the press gallery being really rowdy, even heckling the alleged victim Mia and egging on Diddy's lawyers, which is, of course, not allowed in these rooms. So first up today was another of the Intercontinental Hotel security guards who was on duty during the infamous March 2016 assault on Cassie Ventura. You'll remember that we've already heard from one of the guards, Israel Flores, who was one of the first witnesses to be called at the trial. Well, earlier today, another one of his colleagues, a guy called Eddie Garcia, took the stand. He told the jury that he took a $100,000 bribe from the rapper to make the video disappeared from all the hotel computer servers.

Garcia said that after the assault, he received a call from Diddy's right-hand woman, Christina Karam. We've heard her name come up a lot. And she claimed that Diddy had been intoxicated and didn't remember exactly what happened and asked to see the footage. He told her he would need to contact management about that request. But hours later, he said that Karam showed up at the hotel looking for him. And later that evening, he received a call from Diddy himself. Garcia said, quote, Mr. Combs sounded very nervous. He was talking really fast, was saying that he had a little too much to drink and that I knew how things were with women. One thing led to another. If this got out, it could ruin him.
