CBS News Correspondent and CBS Weekend anchor Jericka Duncan was recently given the task to cover the the trial of Sean "Diddy" Combs. Her assignment puts her at the courthouse and in the courtroom every day of the trial so she has a front row seat to all of the action happening in and outside of the courtroom.
This week, Jericka documents Kanye West's arrival to the courthouse, talks to Diddy's friend Charlucci Finney and welcomes back Judie Saunders to the podcast. Judie leads sexual abuse and human trafficking department of the law firm, Ask LLP. She has more than twenty years of experience litigating cases involving sexual abuse, sexual harassment, and discrimination. Judie has also represented survivors in cases against USA gymnastics, local and state governments, and clergy abuse survivors.
Their conversation dives into the prosecution's case, how effective they've been in proving the charges and the testimony Jane, who describes a toxic relationship marked by manipulation and violence. Saunders provides insights into the implications of Jane's testimony, the complexities of the case, and the challenges faced by the prosecution in presenting their arguments to the jury. They also discuss the nuances of relationships, the impact of trauma, and the strategies employed by the defense. They then dive into the complexities of witness testimony in a high-profile legal case, particularly focusing on the duality of a witness's statements and behaviors as well as the implications of these testimonies for both the prosecution and defense, the importance of jury diversity, and the challenges of proving racketeering charges. Finally, Saunders offers valuable advice for individuals in toxic relationships, emphasizing the significance of trusting one's instincts and the need to shift the narrative around victimization.
