Mark Agnifilo, one of Diddy’s attorneys, speaks with Jericka Duncan on CBS Mornings and admits that Mr. Combs supports an attempt to gain a pardon from Donald Trump but also says, he, as Diddys attorney had nothing to do with it. Diddys attorney also discussed the relationship between him Cassie and Jane. And Diddys plans to “return to music at Madison square garden”. 

Loren talks about the optics of this kind of thinking and how Diddy and his team don’t seem to be showing the right amount of humility and respect towards the court and toward’s Sean Comb’s need to rehabilitate and ask forgiveness, rather than set his sights on selling out MSG again.

Speaker 1 (00:02):
I'm a homegirl that knows a little bit about everything
and everybody.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
You don't know if you don't lie about that, right, Lauren
can't even Hey, y'all, what's up.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
It's Laura l Rosa and this is the latest with
Lauren lo Rosa. Now this is an audio exclusive because
y'all know over here on the audio side, I want
to make sure that y'all get all the things, all
the latest a little bit differently than the people who
actually won't watch the video do. But yes, this is
your daily dig on all things pop culture, entertainment, news

(00:31):
and all of the exclusives and the conversations that break
the room.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
Baby.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
Now, we've been talking a bit about Diddy because his
attorneys have been on almost like a press roll out
of late. They've been doing interviews with several different outlets,
and more recently, Nicole Westmoreland, one of his attorneys, did
an interview where she talked about there being a pardon
conversation between people in Diddy's camp, people in Diddy's world.

(00:56):
She actually said we in the interview, so people say, Hey,
Diddy's offense attorneys are having conversations officially with Donald Trump
about the party. But then Mark Agnifilio, another one of
Diddy's attorneys, went on CBS Mornings. He sat down with
one of my homegirls. Her name is Jerika Duncan. She
works for CBS Mornings, did the interview, and the interview

(01:17):
was pretty interesting. They talk about a couple of different things,
but they did address the part in head on, or
so it seemed. And this is what Mark Agnifilio had
to say.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
You mean to tell me that you really have nothing
to do with a possible pardon right now?

Speaker 4 (01:30):
Nothing, I have nothing to do with a possible pardon.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
What is Sean Combe saying about the possibility of the party?

Speaker 4 (01:37):
I think he knows I'm not political. We've never discussed
it other than I tell him what's in the news
about it. But you know, what's his reaction.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
Does he laugh? Does he say let's let's look into it.

Speaker 4 (01:49):
What does he tell him that I need a partner? Go?
Tell him I deserve a part And that's what he said.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
Now I'm confused about this, as you guys probably are,
because again, another one of Diddy's attorneys, who work very
closely with Mark Agnfilio, came out and said that they
had been having conversations. So this does seem like a
cleanup job. I mean, I reached out earlier this week,
and I've been told that if we were to say
that Diddy's defense team themselves had reached out to Trump

(02:16):
and had been a conversation with Trump, that would not
be accurate.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
That it was people in Diddy's world, in his orbit.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
So I'm still trying to narrow down exactly who it
was and exactly what conversations are. But this seems, you know,
it seems like, you know, maybe Nicole Westmoreland spoke before
she was supposed to, or I'm just really not sure.
Maybe the response to the pardon wasn't what they wanted.
Because at the same time, Mark Agnfilio says, did he's down,

(02:42):
He's like, y'all give me that party, let me know
what's up now. One of the things that Mark Agnfilio
said in his interview was that Diddy is looking to
return back to his family and all the things, but
return back to music.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
Let's listen.

Speaker 4 (02:53):
Does he want to get back into music, Does he
want to get back in the business. I think he's
someone who is always going to strive to do something,
you know, exceptional and probably demanding and challenging. But I
think the most demanding and challenging thing in front of
him right now is to get back with his kids
and get back with his mother and the people who
love him and miss him.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
So he's talked to you about getting back into music.

Speaker 4 (03:15):
If he's not at least no, no, honestly, he has
not one thing. He said. He said, he said when
he's giving me back in Madison Square Garden, he said
that he did. He said to me, he's back in
Madison Square Garden doing what I guess, being on stage.
You know, I mean then I said, I'll be there now.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
Let me tell y'all something here. Shout out to my
home girl, jo Rika Duncan. And when I say my
home girls said very loosely, I you, guys know. I
had covered the Sean Ditecombs case in court for eight weeks,
a lot of US media outlets there. It was almost
like being in college again. You met new resources, you
met new people. You guys were in this world every

(03:54):
day for hours at a time that no one else
could understand unless you were there at the same time.
Jureka was one of the people who was there for
CBS doing her content and coverage and all the things
maryor her while she was there. She's amazing and phenomenal
at what she does. I always give it up to
the journalists, but especially women journalis, especially black women journalists,
because of things like what we just listened to.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
Let's take a listen to her response some more time.

Speaker 4 (04:16):
He said that he did. He said to me, he's
be back in Madison Square.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
Guard doing what I love the way black women can
just do exactly what they need to do without saying
a dang thing, okay, because it gave everything it needed
to give.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
And that was the first clip that they released.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
Now, in this newer clip, which we did not talk
about on the Breakfast Club, Jureka went back in and,
you know, had some conversations about what are you guys
going to do moving forward because the way that things
were presented versus where things are right now, or be
worried for y'all and worried for how this man play
out for you guys. So they had a conversation about
sentencing and how Diddy's defense team has been preparing him

(04:53):
for the sentencing that will go down on October third.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
Let's take a listen to that.

Speaker 3 (04:57):
How are you preparing him?

Speaker 4 (04:59):
So, I mean, I tell him what the guidelines are,
you know, and the guidelines are about two or three years,
And I tell him, you know, the judge could could
go above the guidelines.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
Not gonna lie to y'all.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
I would be surprised, but it wouldn't wow me if
Diddy was to get anything less than three years. I
do think that this based on how this Bell situation
is going, it feels as if, and this is just
a feeling, this is just a guess an opinion. The
judge feels like Diddy needs to learn a lesson of

(05:31):
sorts or face consequence of sorts because that has never happened.
And with that being said, and both charges, the two
Man Act charges, the two prosecution charges that Diddy has
been convicted of, with them holding ten years apiece up
to twenty years combined, it's a little bit nerve racking of.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
Where this is going to land.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
I wouldn't be because in the beginning I was saying, Okay,
I wouldn't be surprised. When I was looking at everything
like the rico, sex trafficking, all the things, I was like,
I wouldn't be surprised if Diddy, you know, with sittings
with ten years and time served, so you're looking at
a good like six to seven. And then I backed
away from that because he wasn't convicted of that rico.
He wasn't convicted of the sex traffick in which were

(06:11):
the heavier charges. But now I'm looking at just how
the judge is responding to Diddy in this situation as
being a convicted person who, according to the court, participated
in the Demand Act allegations. And I wouldn't be surprised
if it could give a little bit more maybe four
to six, four to seven based off of these charges

(06:34):
and hopefully time served. But what I think is the
big issue here is it's always been about this sort
of like celebrity and power. We talked about this, We
talked about this on a previous episode. Make sure you
guys go and listen where I said, did he needs
to humble himself a bit? I understand I would celebrate
too if I wasn't found guilty on something that can
convict me for the rest of my life. But at

(06:55):
the same time, you were still at the mercy of
the court. And that is what I don't understand why,
Like if I were Diddy's attorneys. I would not be
doing interviews right now. Everything will wait until sentencing. And
I definitely want to talk about him returning in the
Madison Square Garden as if he's just gonna pick back
up life and move forward. I mean, he does have
to pick back up his life and move forward. Don't

(07:16):
get me wrong, but it's like, once you want you
do the crime, you do the time, Once you do
the time, once you have rehabilitated in a real way.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
And that's what I think is missing here.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
There's a sort of like empathy or humility or like
a I need to change that. It seems like it's missing.
And that's a scary thing to even like.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
And I don't know if that's true.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
I haven't spoken to Diddy myself, but that's what is
implied by a lot of the actions, right the conversation about, oh,
he wants to return to MSG, be with his family,
return to MSG. And you know, of course you want
to judge, you know he's a changed person, but yeah,
he try to sell out metter Sin Square Guard. It's
just it's never going to sit well, nor does it
ever put a good taste in a court's mouth when

(07:58):
you have a person like Sean Diddy Coombs super powerful,
super rich, and I'm not saying that because he is
super powerful or super rich, he should kiss the court's ask.
At the same time, you know, there's a conversation about overreach,
and me sitting in court myself, I will say there
were certain things that I didn't understand why the prosecution.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
Leaned in on so much.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
But when you are a person who there were allegations
of him reaching out to witnesses, there were text messages
and conversations shown in court where he's like, I know,
I'm not supposed to be on these phones talking about this.
They showed his hotel room in court, the hotel room
he was waiting in to be arrested on the indictment,

(08:40):
and there was all the supplies.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
And reminiscens of a freak off.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
Right, you gotta show the court that, like, man, I
don't know who I thought I was.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
Y'all right, y'all got me.

Speaker 1 (08:51):
I am no bigger. I am not bigger than the
law whatsoever. And I just don't think that they're doing that.
And here's an example of the way that people are
taking or reacting to a lot of the things that
were said in court number one, but also things that
have happened since the vertica's drop. Let's take a listen
to Mark Agnefilio talked to Jaika Duncan from CBS just
about the way did they try this case?

Speaker 3 (09:13):
Do you have any regrets and how you tried this case.

Speaker 4 (09:19):
It's a good question, not really, not really.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
You called the relationship between Combes and Ventora a great
modern love story. Ventora says she was raped, physically abused,
and became addicted to drugs because of Combs.

Speaker 4 (09:35):
I think that's what makes it the rape we vehemently deny,
and I respect that she said that. I don't think
the jury concluded that that happened in terms of the
you know, the drugs and the other stuff. I think
that's what makes it a modern love story. I think
she very much loved him, and I know he very
much loved her.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
Now, listen to Mark Agnefilio's point, Diddy was not convicted
of rape. He wasn't, and there's nothing wrong with clearing
that up any and every time someone brings that up
on this criminal side, because we saw what he was
convicted of. Legally you can do that, but I do
think again she's leaning into a bit of the humility

(10:19):
of this because at the same time, I told you
guys in that last episode, make sure you go, you know,
check that out the Ladies with law La Rosa, where
we talked about Diddy's humility that I believe he should take.
We spent weeks looking at abuse. I mean, not just
to see an in video photos of bruises, Cassie's mother

(10:40):
getting on the stand talking about what they were put through.
I just don't see sentencing going in Ditty's favor if
they don't back down, quiet down and turn off the
take that take that, turn off the bad boy baby,
turn off the lights and the glitz and a glam,
take the sun glasses off.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
Fuff daddy.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
Let's be Sean Colmes right now, a man who had
his family in the court, who had to turn around
to his babies and say, Daddy is coming home because
you were just granted the opportunity to not spend the
rest of your life, you know, behind bars. And let's
stay in that feeling, stay in that look Diddy's big,
Stay in that vibration, stay in that energy.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
Love love love, stay there at least until you get
through this. It's all that I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (11:25):
And then when you get through this, you can still
go back to being look you were, whatever you have
left after this because Diddy does so I have to
fight things on the civil side.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
You worked for that, and you know what I mean,
it's yours. No one can take that from you.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
But as a person, there's a lot of things that
you need to work on and change and get rid
of for yourself to make sure you don't end back
up in the situation chairing right now. But also all
them babies. You turned around and looked at us Saidaddy's
coming home too for them Now. I tell you, guys,
every episode there's a lot to talk about. You guys

(12:00):
could be anywhere with anybody talking about it because at
the end of the day, things is always gone down.
But my Lowriders, I appreciate you guys for being right
here with me Laura LaRosa on the Latest with Laura
la Rosa to talk about it. I would see you
guys in my next episode. Bye.
