Starting point is 00:00:00 we just got back home and I wanted to film this really quick so that I can edit it, get it up in time, and this is gonna be a very short video, this is not gonna be like a normal RM episode, but we just flew in from New York City where Sean Diddy Combs was found not guilty on all of his major charges. so he was facing five counts and we're gonna get into all of that, day three of jury deliberation was... I mean this was the day the verdict came out. it was obviously like the most intense day thus far. I would say the first day of jury deliberation was very stressful. there was a lot of unknown energy. nobody really knew which way it was gonna go. people were reading very deeply into the juror notes. the jury sent back a few notes. the first one being that there was a well okay the news media everyone's been calling it like a rogue juror. like they get
Starting point is 00:00:51 into the deliberation room they send out their first note it's a handwritten note by the jury foreman who is voted upon. this is like the leader of the jury they don't have much more power but they sign off on all these notes and they send in that note and it says that jury number 25 cannot follow instructions and this becomes a whole ordeal. everyone is like what do you mean they cannot follow instructions? does that mean that they cannot follow instructions or they do not want to follow instructions? what does it mean? it got to the point where people like a lot of the members of the press, were confused and wondering,
Starting point is 00:01:27 is this person maybe not able to comprehend certain parts of the English language that might be applicable to the law? And so they start digging into the jury selection process and they find out that this man is a PhD student, a scientist, and so everyone's like, okay, that's clearly not the case. So is it like a health thing? Do they have a medical emergency where they cannot follow the instructions? People were thinking of everything because when you're in the dark and you all you get are these little snippets of notes, you start spiraling. And this is coming from people from the press and the public. I can't imagine what it would be like to be on the prosecution team or the defense team or part of the defendant's family.
Starting point is 00:02:09 It seems very intense. That's the first note. Then there's a few follow-up notes. One of them is asking about what drug distribution means. Another one is asking for testimony transcripts from Cassie Ventura's testimony about the Intercontinental Hotel incident, as well as a Cannes Film Festival incident. So these are the main notes that are coming in.
Starting point is 00:02:29 And people were thinking, okay, maybe it's going to be 4th of July weekend. Like, it's going to be finished up on Wednesday afternoon. If it's not finished, Thursday, Friday, we're out of court, so maybe the following Monday we'll get a verdict. And then Tuesday, at the very end of the day, yesterday, a note comes in that they have found a verdict, a partial verdict, a verdict on four of the five counts, but they are deadlocked on count one, which is the RICO charge. Which is everything, life. Yeah. They go home, they sleep it off, and this morning a note comes in at 9 52 in the morning. The jurors came into the, they went to the jury room at nine o'clock in the morning. 52 minutes in, a note comes in and it reads, we have reached a verdict on all
Starting point is 00:03:20 counts. The judge is reading this out, he's asking anything to address before we bring the jury out. so this just means the jury's gonna come out, he's gonna get it, and they're gonna read it out, and the jurors are gonna say yes, this is what i voted. they're gonna go one by one. yes, this is what i voted. this is what i voted. both parties respond no. now, by this point, jury deliberation day one, jury deliberation day two, shawn comes in his family. we were not in the best of moods. Like they seem like they're one second away from a mental breakdown, all of them. It seems like the defendant, or Sean Combs, is comforting his mother nonstop.
Starting point is 00:03:52 It just seems like everybody is an emotional wreck, which is understandable, but it just felt like a lot of people were speculating, do they know a little more that we don't know? Is there something in the legal process that we haven't gotten a whiff of yet and they see the signs that something is amiss before we see the signs? And he seems just as stressed. When the jurors are led back in and they give their little slip to the judge who reads it
Starting point is 00:04:19 for about 30 seconds, he gives it to the deputy who reads, in the matter of US v. Combs, how do you find the defendant Sean Combs for count one? And now juror number five, the jury for men, this is like the leader of the group. This is like what they vote on. He's gonna be the one that reads it out loud, their verdict, but he's like their spokesperson. I mean, he doesn't have like an extra vote or anything.
Starting point is 00:04:41 He's just their spokesperson. He reads reads not guilty this is the count that they were deadlocked on all day this is the RICO charge not guilty now a lot of people in the press pews in the public I mean all we could do is speculate all day for like the past two days and there were speculations that perhaps he would be found guilty on two of the smaller charges maybe not RICO because they were deadlocked on it. Maybe a lot of people were thinking that was gonna be a hung jury, the RICO charge, and that it would have to be retried.
Starting point is 00:05:12 But they come back not guilty and you hear like a small gasp inside the courtroom from one of the family members. But it's not even like that small, I don't know if it's a small gasp, I don't know if it's a small gasp I don't know if it was just so deadly silent it's unclear it's just like everyone is focused on all these little things as for sex trafficking for Cassandra Ventura how do you find the defendant not guilty now at this point one of the family and friends members of the two pews they are like yes like they're like yeah they're not screaming it it's more of a audible noise and it seems like everyone is breaking out
Starting point is 00:05:51 into smiles over there everybody is like happily nodding even sean combs is like a little hesitant but he seems like he's trying to look at the jury and see because everything's going in his favor at this point and that's like a charge that everyone thought is going to be guilty right Cassandra Everyone thought if he doesn't get Rico he's gonna get sex trafficking of Cassie Ventura transportation for purposes of prostitution related to Cassandra Ventura Guilty there's no reaction the deputy and the four-person continue as for sex trafficking of Jane How do you find the defendant not guilty? Diddy at this point has now broken out into full smiles because those were the three biggest charges As for sex trafficking of Jane, how do you find the defendant? Not guilty.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Diddy, at this point, has now broken out into full smiles because those were the three biggest charges. So count one, count two, and count four. So three is the transportation across state lines for prostitution. That's like a very, that's a very minor charge compared to everything else in his counts. The Rico charge, the sex trafficking charges, one against Cassie and one against Jane, these are his major charges. He was just found not guilty of his major charges. So everything else, it doesn't really matter. This is like a huge win. This is everything he probably
Starting point is 00:06:58 wanted, a little short of getting acquitted of all the charges. Everybody is breaking out into smiles. All of his adult children, they brought- I mean some of them brought their partners, their girlfriends, a lot of the mother of his children's were there. I think the only person not there was his youngest child who is an infant obviously. Kenny Garagos is like tightly gripping Sean Combs's hand. they seem friendly, they seem close. transportation for prostitution for Jane. guilty. as the four-person is reading the verdict looking exclusively towards the judge, the remaining elevengers are like just stone cold faces.
Starting point is 00:07:31 like you can't really read their expression. none of them are really looking at diddy. they're just kind of listening and waiting. meanwhile, diddy is like nodding at them, trying to get them to make eye contact with him, and he's like trying to mouth thank you almost. he does at one point and it's a very interesting- i mean it just- the whole feeling of this verdict is like an escalation to mass goosebumps. i mean there's not like this- every single charge that's read out, it felt more eerie. everybody has goosebumps and i don't mean eerie and like the negative sense of the word it just felt strange. I think a lot of people had vastly different reactions and I'm choosing not to use the word eerie because I think a lot of people were very happy with the verdict, a lot of people were very
Starting point is 00:08:15 unhappy with the verdict, so to use eerie across the whole courtroom is odd. it's just like a it's an undescribable sensation of a weird energy. you just start feeling goosebumps the entire time. You feel like you're shaking, even though this technically has nothing to do with you. Like this isn't your life, this isn't your family member's life, but it feels weird. I don't know if it's the energy that's rubbing off,
Starting point is 00:08:37 and the tension is just so high strung. I think at this point, all of the past two months have cumulated to this very moment From the angle that we are sitting on you can't really see the prosecutors So it's very hard to get a read of what they're thinking how they're reacting But I'm assuming that it was not a pleasant day for them The defense team on the other hand, Diddy is nodding empathetically at the jurors. You know, he's releasing his hand from tennis. He's like putting it into prayers and saying thanks, like mouthing thank you, thank you
Starting point is 00:09:19 silently to each of the jurors. And the jurors are dismissed. They're thanked, let out of the jurors and the jurors are dismissed. They are thanked led out of the room Nobody says anything and then at that point the judge says that he is open to hear any Applications to which mr. Agnifilo immediately stands up and is like his family is here. He should be released They say he is no longer charged with sex trafficking or racketeering his plane has been chartered. It's in Maui He does not have access to his plane. This is his first conviction and it's a prostitution offense. He should be released. So at this point we still have
Starting point is 00:09:51 to wait for sentencing which might be a month out and he's saying Mark Agnifilo is arguing he should be released so that he can come back for sentencing. There's no reason to keep him in jail. He should be all on bail. Yes, that's what they're proposing. I believe they propose like a million dollar bond and a bunch of other things that they sent in a letter that's on the docket for this case. The government is opposing this. They're saying absolutely not.
Starting point is 00:10:15 We are going to seek that not only does he stay in jail before sentencing, but probably during sentencing, they're gonna go after maximum for these two charges, which is 10 years each. He's not gonna get it but... So they're proposing like 20 years together. Yeah. They're aggressively fighting back of like no absolutely not. The judge says he needs some time to think about it. They're going to send in their proposals and he's going to take everything into consideration. He leaves the bench and the court is temporarily adjourned. as everybody is
Starting point is 00:10:46 standing for the judge as he walks off, tenni puts her arm around diddy's shoulder, gives him a squeeze, diddy's chair gets pushed a little bit back, and he turns around to his family. he falls to his knees. he rests his elbows on the chair that he was just sitting at. So he's facing the gallery. He's facing the back of the courtroom. And he just shuts his eyes in like a prayer. And he's praying. It seems like a really long time. I don't know if it's just the way that time works in a courtroom at these high tense moments. It felt like an eternity.
Starting point is 00:11:18 It could have been three seconds. It could have been a minute. Mark Agniflo is looking at him. He looks very pleased. Tenny has tears in her eyes. It appears that they're really close because Sean Combs was close with Mark Garagos. Her dad, yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:31 Her dad, yeah. So she starts crying to the point where she does have to dab tissues on her eyes. And all of his defense team, the attorneys, they're all giving each other hugs. In the entire courtroom, it just kind of erupts into cheers. At this point, Judge Arun, Father Arun is off the bench. So it's not like they're doing this in his presence because that would be highly unlikely, but I mean people are cheering, people are clapping,
Starting point is 00:11:58 people are whooping. It's like it's so dramatic and they're cheering as he's on his knees and he just It's so dramatic and they're cheering as he's on his knees and he just slowly stands up from his knees very dramatically as if he's like rising from the ashes. It feels very cinematic for what? And it was just the weirdest moment and he starts hugging his defense team members. He's cheering saying thank you, I love you to his family who are clapping back, yelling, crying. The defense attorneys are like huddled together like they just won a championship and you just see a lot of the members of the public who are also in the courtroom, they're erupting in cheers, they're all excited. you can literally feel the goosebumps even if you do not agree with the verdict. there's something about the energy inside of that courtroom that it just
Starting point is 00:12:42 feels strange. it's just like a lot of energy. so with that, court is adjourned for them to figure out if Diddy is going to be released on bond, if he is going to be technically a somewhat free man until sentencing. and even at sentencing, he still might be a free man if he gets no jail time. and when you walk out of this courtroom, it's not even just the energy in the courtroom, the energy outside the courthouse. Like if you thought it was strange the first week or two of trial,
Starting point is 00:13:12 which was probably the most intense two weeks, it is crazy. There are people outside chanting free puff. That's what you said! They tried to force you to change the song! That's what you said! People are telling you what it's about! There's people outside wearing matching t-shirts.
Starting point is 00:13:28 Some of them read, Freako is not a Rico. Oh yeah, I saw that. Yeah, that was given out by his best friend, right? Yeah, so they're like wearing matching t-shirts. There is one very famous TikToker who had taken his shirt off and people were rubbing baby oil on him. There are people live streaming at every cross section of outside this courthouse.
Starting point is 00:13:52 People are getting into fights because at this point, it seems like a lot of the live streamers have split into two camps. One camp that believed that Diddy was gonna be found guilty on all charges. One camp that was very pro Diddy and wanted to quote free puff. So those have been almost like,
Starting point is 00:14:08 it's like a war outside the courthouse. Doug Wigder, Cassie's attorney is walking out. We're trying to get like videos of him. He's just like walking out. The press are running up to him. Donaldson, Nicole Westmoreland walk out at one point. And they're not really saying much. The attorneys are probably gonna give a formal statement maybe around the time that this video
Starting point is 00:14:26 goes up if not like right before this video goes up. I'm trying to time it well but it's interesting so we're I mean they're gonna be happy. If anyone is coming out of this a winner aside from Diddy it's going to be his defense team. There's fights still breaking out outside and what's interesting is you would think that a lot of the public would be fighting between the pro Diddy supporters and the not supporters of Diddy. But a lot of it is actually people who support Diddy
Starting point is 00:14:53 fighting each other. There's like one person who's screaming and upset and is like, these people weren't here every day that I was here supporting Diddy, so why are they suddenly showing up to support Diddy? And a lot of people are just like, I think you need a job because this is crazy to be arguing about. They don't even know Diddy personally. So like what is happening outside the courthouse? It's literally just mayhem. It's chaos.
Starting point is 00:15:18 Like it doesn't even make sense. I think we're still having a hard time comprehending anything that's just happened. And everyone's talking about what's going to happen next. so here's what we know. he was not found guilty on rico. he was not found guilty on any sex trafficking charge. he was found guilty on count three and five, which are the transportation for prostitution charges. they are a maximum of 10 years each. that's just a sentencing guideline. By no means does Father Arun have to adhere to that. He could give him time served with probation, he could give him 3 years served concurrently, which means at the same time. So both charges 3 years, but he really only spends 3 years in prison. Because there's no minimum, like he could
Starting point is 00:16:01 be walking out, right? He could get like just probation for five years It's really all up to father Arun at this point No I'm sure he has a lot to take into consideration like the fact that Deontay Nash and Cassie Ventura have both submitted letters to the judge Today saying hey, we don't feel safe if he is out on bail. Oh, really? They were saying we don't feel safe. We don't think other people are gonna feel safe I mean the judge has a lot to take into consideration before he figures out what to do. Also, there is this thing where if he does let Diddy out on bond, there is a speculation that his attorneys are going to just drown the court with more emotion so that they can
Starting point is 00:16:38 push sentencing and then just they're just gonna try to lag it. Which is gonna be a big headache. By this point, I mean, yes, he was found guilty on two charges, but this is probably the best outcome that he could have gotten from this case. I think a lot of people were surprised, and I think we're still having a hard time digesting everything that's happened. By the time that this video goes up, we will probably know if he's gonna get out on bond or not. I'm gonna leave it in the pinned comment, but i don't really know. i feel like i need to conclude
Starting point is 00:17:09 this entire video with some sort of feeling or thoughts or opinions, and i don't really have ones that are gonna sound new and introspective and fresh. i think the whole team and i have just been wrapping our minds around it. the verdict was surprising, but unsurprising at the same time. I think that we had a lot of faith in the feds. I will say that throughout the moments, there were times throughout this entire trial, we would come home after a long court day, and there would be moments where I would say, what just happened? And I think I mentioned it very briefly in a few episodes where I was like, when I'm
Starting point is 00:17:43 there, I see the energy in the courtroom, I see the jurors responses to a lot of these questions, I could be misinterpreting their facial expressions, I feel like the defense is so great at controlling the narrative, controlling the emotions inside the courtroom, that I walk out and I'm like, what just happened? I read the transcripts and I'm like, no no no. the government knows what they're doing because this makes sense on the transcript. Everything is here. Like the coercion, I can see it, I can feel it. To me personally, in my opinion, it's there, right?
Starting point is 00:18:16 But I think that, and we would try to comfort each other, like the team would be like, no, no, no. But the feds have such a crazy conviction rate like they know what they're doing they're so capable which they are but there were a lot of times where we were trying to wrap our heads around the fact that the defense team came off incredibly charismatic and I know that maybe to people that haven't been inside of even this specific courtroom or like any courtroom maybe it means nothing like maybe this would have meant nothing to me prior to this trial being there in person. They come off charismatic. And I know a lot of people are gonna be like, okay, well, he's still a criminal. Like, I still don't like Diddy. What does
Starting point is 00:18:54 his attorney's charisma have anything to do with it? But when you spend eight, nine hours in a cramped courtroom with the same 20 people all day, every day, I'm sure that the jurors care about who's likable. Yeah, I think like for me, you know, we've been talking about this for months. Every time you're talking about these lawyers and then their body language, the way they talk, the way they act, the way the juror responds to it, I feel like that carries so much bigger weight than even we anticipated. Even though every day you come home, you're like, Oh, I saw this person smirking. I saw they reacted this way.
Starting point is 00:19:26 I don't know. I think jurors really liked it. I think the jurors really liked what they said. And then we're like, but are they going to ignore all the evidence and this and that the attorneys that did he hired? I mean, I guess they, they won the jurors over. Yeah. Cause I don't think it was him that won the jurors over. Yeah, cuz I don't think it was him that won the jurors over I think that um, I think they did an exceptional job at what they were supposed to do which is win the jury over
Starting point is 00:19:51 I think the prosecutors probably could have done a better job at winning the jurors over I think that a lot of times during their direct examinations of very crucial witnesses such as Cassie and Jane I do know that Jane is a bit more of a contentious witness as a lot of people even on the internet are having these very lengthy debates about whether or not it was sex trafficking. Because for Jane, she was 35 years old when she met Sean Combs. She had a child and the main coercion aspect that the government is trying to tell the jurors is that she was obsessed, she was in love with him and additionally, he was paying for the house.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Now, I think a lot of people online were like, well she can move out, she's 35, she can just get a job and like she can't be that love struck if she's a mom, like she needs to think about her kid. Like people were having these types of debates online about Jane. However, for Cassie, I think a lot of people online were expecting a guilty verdict for the sex trafficking of Cassie Ventura. She was 18 when she met him. She was signed to like a 10 album record deal with his record label.
Starting point is 00:20:55 There was so much violence throughout their relationship that could easily factor into the force, fraud, or coercion that a lot of people were taken aback that this was a not guilty verdict and ultimately it just came down to the jurors believed unanimously that cassie wanted these freak-offs that she consented to this that she was a willing participant now if i were in a jurors position would i have thought that no but i wasn't i'm not on the jury and that's just how our justice system works,
Starting point is 00:21:25 unfortunately, whether we like it or not. so whether people agree with this verdict online or not, doesn't really change as much because the jurors still just did what the jurors did. yeah, and you know, like another thing we noticed is like every time you're talking about the way Diddy's attorney, you know, even their closing statement, the difference between the prosecutor's closing statement versus Diddy's team's closing statement is totally different, right? Diddy's team is super casual. They're just being like, you know, we're not even getting to all the nitty gritties. You know, this is all about love story, blah, blah, blah. And whatever it is, that delivery worked.
Starting point is 00:22:02 I think the problem is with a case like this, and I don't mean to say everyone, and I don't mean to say us or you guys as an audience, but I think with maybe an older jury, they were a little bit older than maybe you and I might be on this jury pool, with a lot of men on the jury pool, I would say that- Eight men, right?
Starting point is 00:22:24 Yeah, with eight men out of 12 jurors there was a lot- I think a lot of it came down to emotion I think a lot of it felt like it could be spun both ways I don't think it was a he said she said case I think there was a lot of evidence pointing, at least me in my opinion, towards sex trafficking of at least Cassie ventura right?
Starting point is 00:22:47 but i think that a lot of people felt it was a he said she said and in these situations i feel like emotion always wins and the defense they came with the emotions. every cross examination would be where you felt the most emotion whether it be positive or negative towards the witness, the direct examinations, it was very few and far in between. Like they examined Cassie Ventura for so many days, the prosecution did, and there were not many palpably emotional moments in the courtroom. I think on paper, the words were emotional. I think on the transcript, the words were emotional,
Starting point is 00:23:22 but they came out, the way that the prosecutor would ask the questions was very flat and monotone. It just didn't So would you say like the star team of Diddy's did their job? Yeah, and I think that Yeah, I just feel bad for the witnesses Yeah, I feel bad for the witnesses I think it's just another reminder that we still live in a world where I think a lot of people need a perfect victim, and you're just not going to get that in most cases, and I think that's very depressing to find out through this trial. I think people have a hard time understanding that victims can be multifaceted. I also think it's very interesting the way that people have been discussing the domestic violence of this case. I know that's not a charge and that's almost become the focal point of
Starting point is 00:24:08 like, well he wasn't charged with domestic violence, but it is part of the coercion aspect. and I think it's interesting that more people have upset and very loud feelings about Jane wanting a Chanel bag and Cassie wanting a lifestyle versus him being a violent abuser and I think that's a very interesting juxtaposition that's been happening online of like people are saying well He's just a domestic violence abuser and he can get help for that But they make it seem like Cassie receiving money or jane wanting a chanel bag is some sort of fatal crime, some sort of fatal personality flaw that cannot be defended. it's just very interesting the way that people have
Starting point is 00:24:55 been comparing those two elements of this case. now there have been lots of speculations online and rumors mainly that Diddy has bought out some of the jurors that are possibly being paid. one comment reads it's painfully obvious one of the jurors took the payoff in order to cause a mistrial. it's so transparent that it's actually ridiculous. the only reason the jury is hung is because the juror thought money was more important than actual justice. so this was when they were deadlocked on the RICO charge. however, looking back at the timeline of how,
Starting point is 00:25:25 I mean, unless he paid off all of them, which is so highly unlikely, pretty much impossible and not proven and completely a baseless allegation and internet rumor, there's just no way that they would have come back with a not guilty verdict on the major charges in the time that they did. Because within like a day and a half, they already decided on the sex trafficking charges
Starting point is 00:25:46 and they were just stuck on Rico. That's why we also like, we're looking back, right? Yesterday, they were deadlocked on Rico. We thought maybe like, I don't know, seven of them thinks he's guilty and then maybe five of them think he's not. But now looking back, it seems like majority thinks he's not guilty.
Starting point is 00:26:04 And there was a few things he is guilty. Yeah. But I do think that these comments about him purchasing or buying off jurors is very interesting and very depressing in the sense of like, that's how little faith we have in our justice system. And I think it's completely accurate. So like, while I do think it's just a rumor as it pertains to this case, it's kind of sad i felt like a lot of people overestimated what the feds were gonna do, what the government was gonna come in with,
Starting point is 00:26:43 what the prosecutors were gonna be able to accomplish, and I don't know if this is accurate, but I felt like the prosecutors completely overestimated the jury. I feel like, because maybe the prosecutors are a little bit on the younger end, I don't know, maybe they're on TikTok, maybe they're watching the same things you and I are watching, and maybe we feel like, hey, you know, consent is complicated, but it's very clear when someone is feeling coerced. like they even if they send text messages like, I love it! like you can tell through other inferences that they clearly don't love it. and I think maybe they expected that from the jury because I don't think that they did the best job at explaining how it was coercion over and over again in a way that felt emotionally moving perhaps to that jury.
Starting point is 00:27:27 Whereas I think the defense, I mean, they were pulling out excuses that were used decades ago. This is a love story. They both wanted it. They just like to be having fun in the bedroom. The government doesn't belong in the bedroom. Like these are all things that we get icked out by because we've heard them decades ago and we're like, how does this still work today in the big old year of 2025? But it did end up working. But ultimately, that is where we are with the case. It's very clear who the winners are in this.
Starting point is 00:27:58 It's Diddy and it's his defense team. Brian Steele has been trending again with people calling him the riko remover. he represented young thug in a riko case as well, so that's what he's most well known for, and now combs. so people are saying he's 2 for 2 now. i mean, the whole defense team, i imagine that they're like the new dream team. there's a lot of diddy supporters online that are saying like, we knew he'd be innocent, like they were just trying to take down a successful black man
Starting point is 00:28:27 which a lot of people have a lot of interesting discourse about and other people are saying this is the weirdest flex ever, search all of their computers i mean does nobody have a job like how are we supporting him after the cnn video? if anything the cnn video is enough other people are commenting that a standing ovation inside the courtroom is criminal. other people are commenting this diddy trial is now proof that you can do anything if you have money. other people are responding to that comment saying yeah, which is why I'm too broke to break the law. other people think it's very interesting because Mark Agnifilo is representing two of the more high-profile
Starting point is 00:29:02 cases that are gonna be happening this year and next year and they comment, Diddy's gonna go free and Luigi Mangione is gonna get convicted to the highest extent another person comments, this is exactly why victims don't come forward when they're abused because nothing will be done anyways so why live with the public ridicule? this is so sad
Starting point is 00:29:22 others are commenting, I don't get it he beat cassie. how does a jury member not understand that is creating coercion out of fear? to which other people have been defending diddy, saying, did you not see the part where she said she liked and wanted to participate in the freak offs? and now a lot of people are just nervous because he might be free, he might be out on bond, he might not even get jail time during his sentencing, and people think that this is going to make him feel untouchable now. But as of right now, as of filming this, probably not by the time you see it, there were people
Starting point is 00:29:53 outside chanting, let puffy go, as the judge is making his decision on whether or not he's going to let him out on bond. Which I'm going to leave in the pinned comment. I know that this was not like a typical RM video. I feel like I haven't even really had the time to even get my thoughts together. this is just like right off the cuff of all of the things that the RM team has been feeling so hopefully it was coherent enough but what are your thoughts on this? how do you feel? do you feel like justice was
Starting point is 00:30:22 done? do you feel like another day, another sad system moment? let me know in the comments. please stay safe, and i will see you in the next one.
