Topics
Nancy Grace: 我对辩方律师竟然面不改色地向陪审团声称,那些暴力袭击,有些还被录了下来,都只是自制色情片感到震惊。Diddy在法庭上表现得如此冷静和可爱,这令人感到震惊。Diddy在这些怪异行为中并没有表现出任何的冷静,我希望他余生都在监狱里度过。 Tisa Tells: 我认为Agnifilo的草莓柠檬水辩护可能在他有机会站稳脚跟之前就已经崩溃了。草莓柠檬水辩护是说,为了取悦伴侣,你可能会喜欢你原本不喜欢的东西。Agnifilo甚至说“她使出了最古老的伎俩”,暗示Cassie在引诱男人。Agnifilo试图暗示Cassie是一个可以同时对付两三个男人的荡妇,这令人作呕。Agnifilo最初很迷人,但当他开始使用老派的厌女症时,陪审团就反感了。Agnifilo似乎意识到他已经失去了陪审团,开始变得紧张。 Rob Shuter: 我对Diddy花大价钱请来的法律团队的表现感到震惊,他应该反对这种论点。Diddy是一个完美主义者,他知道观众想要什么,但他似乎没有意识到陪审团并不接受这种论点。Diddy应该纠正这种糟糕的局面。选择哪个律师以及结案陈词的大纲都是Diddy的决定,因为他是一个控制狂。Diddy非常注重形象,他会确保在音乐会上拍摄到有色人种和年轻漂亮的人。音乐界的人士预计Diddy很快就会回家,我们不能轻易相信这件事已经结束。 Bethany Marshall: 社会上仍然普遍存在对女性性行为的负面看法,这就是为什么性交易受害者无法得到应有的保护。Diddy在法庭上试图恐吓他的律师,可以想象他在私下里对受害者做了什么。Agnifilo说Cassie Ventura只是想取悦她的男人,这基本上是在说女人需要忍受。孩子们应该有一个好的治疗师来帮助他们理解法庭上对女性的贬低。Diddy支付了巨额赔偿金,是因为他需要掩盖自己的罪行。 Robert Crispin: 我今天看到了一个不同的Diddy,他谨慎地、偷偷地看着陪审团。现在事情变得严重起来,Combs正坐在那里盯着陪审团。Diddy意识到联邦法院不是开玩笑的,视频、电子证据和证人证词都取决于陪审团的决定。陪审团提出的问题将揭示他们的想法和关注点。今天对Diddy来说是糟糕的一天,因为他意识到自己的命运掌握在陪审团手中,如果被判有罪,他将面临终身监禁。 Dani Pinter: Agnifilo的辩护令人作呕,我希望陪审团也这么认为。辩方是否真的认为陪审团会相信Cassie Ventura拥有所有权力,而Diddy是受害者的故事? Eric Faddis: 从街头和YouTube上获取的信息可能更能反映陪审团的看法。这是一场艰苦的战斗,而不是一场轻松的胜利。由于涉及的时间跨度长、证人众多、证据冲突和可信度问题,很难达到排除合理怀疑的举证责任。 Sydney Sumner: 陪审团选出了一位陪审长,并开始审议。陪审团对其中一名陪审员表示担忧,因为他们认为该陪审员无法遵循法官的指示。

Shownotes Transcript

Lead attorney for Diddy's powerhouse defense team, closes with mixed reviews as the disgraced rap mogul appears focused, glancing at the juror box as jury instructions are laid out before deliberations begin. Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ lead attorney Marc Agnifilo mocks sex trafficking case in closing arguments, says charges ‘badly exaggerated' evidence of swinger lifestyle and threesomes, with recreational drug use.

Judge Arun Subramanian admonishes Agnifilo after his heavy victim and state blaming sarcastic closing arguments. Agnifilo calls Combs’ prosecution a “fake trial” and ridicules the notion the rap mogul ever engaged in racketeering. Even rival rapper 50 Cent weighs in about closing arguments by Combs' powerhouse defense lead, calling out Diddy's lawyer over controversial closing argument: 'They Did Him Dirty'." 

Soon as deliberations began, they hit a snag, as one juror apparently can’t follow judge’s instructions, according to other jurors. Jurors sent the judge a note complaining that one juror may not be playing well with others. With that said, Diddy's jury has a lot to ponder and work through on understanding RICO laws, as another question, making it the second one, being sent to the judge. These notes appear to signify the jurors are taking their service duty seriously.
