Speaker 1 (00:18):
Jersey and Amanda jam Nation. Well, the jury has reached
a verdict in the case of disgraced rapper Sean P.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Diddy.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
For more, It's cross right now to entertainment correspondent Cooper
Lawrence in New York. Cooper High, Hi, So I'm hearing
stories of guilty not guilty, bits and pieces give us
the info.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
You know, you're catching me in a bad damn in
a really bad Juris are so stupid. This has made
me so angry this whole thing, because this guy is
an abuser. It's just the fact that our laws here
are so crazy. For example, we all saw the video
of him beating Cassie. It's not like Diddy didn't he
you know, all these witnesses come forward and say we

(00:59):
heard him beating her through the door. Even the sex
worker who was there said he couldn't perform because it
was such a horrible situation that he was in. But
our laws are so that if she didn't go to
court within a year of that incident, it's it's no
longer an incident. She had a year and that year
has come and gone, so and the trial, the jury

(01:21):
didn't have to take that in to consideration. So the
racketeering charge was the big one. That's the one that
we never There was not a chance that they were
going to find him guilty of racketeering, so that in
case you don't know that, it's basically like he's the
head of a empire and had other people go out
and do his bidding, so that they couldn't prove that.

(01:41):
We knew that was never gonna happen. The sex trafficking
same thing. The reason why both Cassie and Jane Doe
didn't have didn't get the sex traffic is because the
jury believed that they were complicit that somehow because they
were in relationships with him, and there are all these.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
Texts that said, you know, love you boo, can't wait
for the.

Speaker 3 (02:01):
Next freak off, which juries don't see that they did
that out of fear because they were psychologically he had
messed with them so bad. Instead, they said, well it
must be consensual, So juries are stupid.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
I think there were eight man full women, is that
right on the jury? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:18):
Stupid ones. Yeah, So what is he going to do
child Tom does he get out of jode.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
He got guilty of something, didn't He was guilty of something.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
Right, so he's guilty of prostitution. He's guilty of prostitution,
both in Cassie's case and Jane Doe. The problem is
that those are the only charges that don't carry a
sentence that is mandatory. It's a maximum of ten years,
but they don't have to give him any time at all.
The judge can decide, you know what time served, pay
some bail, pay us a million dollars and you can

(02:48):
go free. So there will be a sentencing hearing. They
have not set the date for that yet. So but
for now, what we're waiting for is his attorney has
said to the judge, listen, he's off on the big charges.
Weren't was he was not guilty. You should send him home.
Let's let him out on bail. The prosecution is saying, no,
these prostitution charges are still pretty serious. Anybody else who's

(03:11):
not rich and famous would go right back to prison,
because we're still talking about a potential for twenty years
in prison for this. So we are waiting right now.
Both sides have gone to the judge and they've made
their case of bail and no bail.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
So that's the next thing that we're waiting for.

Speaker 3 (03:26):
We will find out, hopefully by the end of the
day today, if they're going to let him go home or.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
If he's going to go back to prison.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
Is all this despote any of these findings. Is it
all going to be career ending?

Speaker 2 (03:38):
Oh? I mean this has all been career ending.

Speaker 3 (03:40):
The difference to what's really interesting when you go outside
the courtroom. I've walked by there, there's only like a
handful of people. It's not like Michael Jackson, where everybody
loved him and there were thousands of people out there
because he was innocent. This is a guy who admitted
to drug use, he admitted to prostitution, he admitted to
beating the basically the abuse that these women suffered. He

(04:03):
basically said, yeah, that did happen. So a lot of
people don't have sympathy towards him. So as it is,
I guess the general public, who didn't really know much
about him will definitely turn their back on him. But
like any other celebrity, he has his die hard fans
who are literally down there right now covering their bodies
in baby oil.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
Really.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
Yeah. Yeah, they're down there in support.

Speaker 3 (04:26):
They have T shirts that say, uh Freako isn't Rico?
You know, there's like ten of them. It's not like
there's hundreds of them. There's a long like three or
four people.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
It's not all isn't Rico? Yeah, that's their motto. They
have to have a motto, you know. So that's what
it is.

Speaker 3 (04:41):
Paper.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
It's always great to talk to you. And I like
the authentic New York police sirens in the background as
well to indicate, well, I mean, I'm right by the courthouse. Now.
That's excited I'm walking in here. Cooper, thank you for
joining me. Thanks guys, catch up with you next time.
