During a sidebar for the case of USA v. Sean Combs - the judge tells the defense attorneys:
“Well, that is victim blaming. That is literally that's like if you had a dictionary that had a term victim blaming, like that would be the explanation that you'd be given, so it can't be that. It has to be something else.”
He clarifies that they themselves are not victim blamers; however, some of their questions could not be accepted in open court for their rather victim blaming nature.
He has said what netizens have been thinking for months now.
Netizens have been wondering for months -
Who is on trial here? Sean Combs or the victims?
Every single text message and every intimate detail of these women’s lives have been brought up in court.
They are being subjected to days and 20+ hours of brutal testimony. Their pasts are being dug up online - while Sean Combs has a growing line of fans waiting to get into the courtroom to support him. We are nearing the end of the trial and it feels like nobody really knows how this will end.
