Thank you very much. All right, let's get into today's episode,

38
00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:16.599
and y'all, every time I turn around, I have something

39
00:03:16.759 --> 00:03:22.080
new to report on Seewan Diddy Combs. However, I kind

40
00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:27.639
of expected those lawsuits at some point to start slowing

41
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:29.840
down and kind of go away. I mean, we got

42
00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:36.280
like fourteen of these lawsuits right now, but September twenty fourth,

43
00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:40.639
yet another one has surfaced. And of course, this most

44
00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:44.840
recent lawsuit after he's already been incarcerated at what's known

45
00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:49.759
as MDC Brooklyn. And we're gonna call this episode the

46
00:03:49.960 --> 00:03:53.719
nail in the coffin, and you'll see why as I

47
00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:59.479
go on. So, before I get into the actual lawsuit,

48
00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:01.960
which I have in front of me, I want to

49
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:08.479
tell you about the attorney representing Dahlia Graves, who is

50
00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:13.280
the beautiful lady that filed this lawsuit. Now, her attorney

51
00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:18.040
is a lady by the name of Gloria Alred. And

52
00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:22.199
if you've not heard of Gloria Alred, I'm going to

53
00:04:22.279 --> 00:04:25.519
tell you about her, and I'll tell you right up front.

54
00:04:25.839 --> 00:04:32.199
This lady is an absolute beast. There is no better

55
00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:38.839
attorney representing females that are the victims of sexual assault,

56
00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:42.879
which is what she specializes in. There are no better

57
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:47.639
attorneys than Gloria Alred. She is the best in the

58
00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:55.959
entire world at what she does, undisputed. So let's talk

59
00:04:56.000 --> 00:05:01.360
about Gloria Alred's experience first before we get into the lawsuit,

60
00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:05.519
and y'all, I'm gonna tell you this lawsuit in particular

61
00:05:05.959 --> 00:05:10.720
is extremely graphic. It's as graphic as I've ever read,

62
00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:15.240
So be prepared for that when we get to that point.

63
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:20.639
But first, let's talk about Gloria Alread and the folks

64
00:05:20.680 --> 00:05:25.000
that she has represented over time. And she has been

65
00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:29.079
a lawyer for many, many years, y'all, and she is

66
00:05:29.319 --> 00:05:33.439
absolutely fearless, and she has covered some of the most

67
00:05:33.720 --> 00:05:38.639
high profile cases of all time. And I'll start with

68
00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:45.839
telling you that she actually represented the family of Nicole

69
00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:52.079
Simpson in nineteen ninety five during the OJ Simpson trial. Now,

70
00:05:52.120 --> 00:05:55.800
of course she was not a prosecutor for the Prosecutor's office,

71
00:05:56.199 --> 00:06:02.160
but she represented that family in both civil litigation, and

72
00:06:02.279 --> 00:06:05.360
she was the attorney making sure that you know, when

73
00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:08.759
the media said things about the family it was accurate

74
00:06:08.839 --> 00:06:12.720
information because you didn't want Gloria Allred going after you.

75
00:06:13.079 --> 00:06:17.160
But obviously the OJ Simpson trial being one of, if

76
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:21.240
not the most popular trial of all time in the

77
00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:24.079
United States, and I would say myrdaal would be up

78
00:06:24.079 --> 00:06:26.600
there as well. The case that I am also covering

79
00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:33.560
right now on exposed. So that was in nineteen ninety five. Now,

80
00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:39.120
in nineteen ninety seven, she actually represented a model by

81
00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:42.720
the name of Kelly Fisher. So let me tell you

82
00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:45.399
about that situation, because you may be like, who is

83
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:50.959
Kelly Fisher. Well, when picture surfaced of Princess Diana and

84
00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:54.920
the wealthy Egyptian by the name of Dodie Fay, ed

85
00:06:55.319 --> 00:07:00.920
Allred held a press conference with model Kelly Fisher claimed

86
00:07:00.920 --> 00:07:05.560
to be engaged to Fayed, promptly suing him for breach

87
00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:10.639
of contract. Alred told the media Fayed was and it

88
00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:14.279
was kind of a popular quote, a frog in prince

89
00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:18.879
clothing something a little more current. Actually, in two thousand

90
00:07:18.879 --> 00:07:24.600
and four, she was the attorney representing Amber Fry and

91
00:07:24.720 --> 00:07:29.600
Amber Fry, of course, the ex girlfriend of Scott Peterson.

92
00:07:29.959 --> 00:07:34.680
Scott Peterson was the man in California that was convicted

93
00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:39.480
of murdering his wife, so she represented Amber Fry who

94
00:07:39.519 --> 00:07:43.120
he was having an affair with, but Amber Fry was

95
00:07:43.160 --> 00:07:48.079
totally unaware and was an affair. She also represented someone

96
00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:54.120
by the name of Scary Spice, and Scary Spice actually

97
00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:57.800
took on actor Eddie Murphy, claiming that Eddie Murphy had

98
00:07:57.920 --> 00:08:04.000
fathered her child. In all was there and involved in

99
00:08:04.040 --> 00:08:08.279
that by representing Scary Spice. Later on, in that case,

100
00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:12.639
actually a paternity test was ordered and Eddie Murphy was

101
00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:16.920
found to be the father of that child. But it

102
00:08:16.959 --> 00:08:20.800
wasn't just females that she represented. Actually, in two thousand

103
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:26.079
and seven she represented Britney Spears former bodyguard a guy

104
00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:29.759
by the name of Tony Barretto in a case against

105
00:08:29.959 --> 00:08:35.799
Britney Spears. She represented Christina Hagen in twenty ten, who

106
00:08:35.840 --> 00:08:40.519
actually had a sexual harassment case against former Buffy the

107
00:08:40.639 --> 00:08:46.480
Vampire Slayer star David Burnez and that was settled out

108
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:51.480
of court. She represented Rachel Uchitel, who is best known

109
00:08:51.600 --> 00:08:57.240
as one of Tiger Wood's mistresses. She represented that client

110
00:08:57.440 --> 00:09:01.480
in two thousand and ten, if you represented someone by

111
00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:04.480
the name of Ginger Lee, and Ginger Lee was a

112
00:09:04.519 --> 00:09:07.360
porn star who had an affair with a guy by

113
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:11.639
the name of Anthony Weiner who was a political figure,

114
00:09:12.399 --> 00:09:17.320
and actually her involvement, meaning Miss Alred's involvement in that

115
00:09:17.440 --> 00:09:23.480
case forced Weiener to resign. In twenty twelve, she represented

116
00:09:23.759 --> 00:09:29.720
Sharon Bailek who filed a sexual harassment law suait against

117
00:09:29.759 --> 00:09:34.440
Herman Cain, who was a political figure and actually at

118
00:09:34.440 --> 00:09:37.840
one point was going to run for president. So she

119
00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:44.720
has some pretty powerful representation cases prior to the Diddy

120
00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:47.159
law seat. I mean, in a lot of these against

121
00:09:47.320 --> 00:09:51.360
absolute billionaires, and this lady does not hesitate to go

122
00:09:51.440 --> 00:09:54.960
after him. So I can promise you that not only

123
00:09:55.120 --> 00:09:59.799
is Diddy Combs shitting his pants right now with Gloria already,

124
00:10:00.919 --> 00:10:04.759
but his lawyers are probably shitting their parts right now

125
00:10:04.799 --> 00:10:09.399
because I can tell you they have absolutely no chance

126
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:12.360
against this lady, if they had a chance at all anyway,

127
00:10:12.919 --> 00:10:15.399
But you throw her in the mix, they're in trouble.

128
00:10:16.639 --> 00:10:23.840
So let's get into the lawsuit itself that Talia Grays

129
00:10:23.879 --> 00:10:29.440
filed against Sean Ditty Combs, And I'm going to read

130
00:10:29.480 --> 00:10:33.279
you the facts of this case as they are alleged

131
00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:37.960
in that lawsuit, and it reads Planet's family immigrated to

132
00:10:38.039 --> 00:10:41.120
New York City when the planeff was a teenager in

133
00:10:41.159 --> 00:10:45.919
connection with her mother's work. Her family ultimately settled in

134
00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:49.639
Queen's where she completed her education, and it was where

135
00:10:49.679 --> 00:10:53.000
she was living when she met Comb's. Combs at that

136
00:10:53.159 --> 00:10:56.919
time was known by his stage names Puff Daddy, Puffy,

137
00:10:57.080 --> 00:11:01.919
p Ditty, Diddy, Brother Love or Love and is a

138
00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:06.679
prominent rapper, record executive and businessman, and it kind of

139
00:11:06.720 --> 00:11:09.240
goes into his history of that I'm not going to

140
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:13.480
read all that to you, but goes into his business

141
00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:16.240
history and the size of his company and all those

142
00:11:16.360 --> 00:11:20.559
sorts of things. Then it goes into his history of

143
00:11:20.679 --> 00:11:26.559
lawsuits for sexual allegations in particular. Now there's also someone

144
00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:30.279
else in this lawsuit that is named, and that is

145
00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:36.000
the bodyguard of Sean Diddy Combs. His name he was

146
00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:39.879
known as Big Joe, and he's referred to in this

147
00:11:40.039 --> 00:11:44.840
document as defendant Sherman, and he was employed by Combs

148
00:11:44.919 --> 00:11:48.360
as his bodyguard and head of security during the relevant

149
00:11:48.440 --> 00:11:53.240
time period described herein Sherman is also the founder of

150
00:11:53.399 --> 00:11:58.600
Rhymes and Dines Magazine, a New York State corporation on

151
00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:02.799
information and belief. He has often distributed videos of his

152
00:12:03.000 --> 00:12:08.240
and his friend's sexual assaults through his pornography company. That's right,

153
00:12:08.399 --> 00:12:13.559
his bodyguard owned a porn company. The plaintiff met defendant

154
00:12:13.559 --> 00:12:17.080
Combs enter around late nineteen ninety nine or early two

155
00:12:17.159 --> 00:12:21.039
thousand through her then boyfriend, who was an executive at

156
00:12:21.200 --> 00:12:25.120
Bad Boy Combs Company. In addition to working together the

157
00:12:25.120 --> 00:12:30.799
plaintiff's boyfriend in Combs had a personal relationship. Plainmouf frequently

158
00:12:30.960 --> 00:12:34.399
visited her boyfriend at the Bad Boys studio in New

159
00:12:34.480 --> 00:12:40.039
York City and attended events hosted at Comb's residence. Over

160
00:12:40.120 --> 00:12:43.799
that time, the plaintiff became familiar with Combs, and he

161
00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:48.279
knew about her relationship with her boyfriend. So in or

162
00:12:48.360 --> 00:12:51.960
around summer of two thousand and one, the plaintiff she

163
00:12:52.120 --> 00:12:55.960
receives a call from Combs concerning her boyfriend's employment at

164
00:12:56.000 --> 00:12:58.879
Bad Boy. He told her he wanted to meet with

165
00:12:58.919 --> 00:13:03.279
her in person to this discusser boyfriend's performance issues. As

166
00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:06.559
he put it, her boyfriend was determined to climb up

167
00:13:06.600 --> 00:13:10.399
the Latter It Comes record label, and as his romanic partner,

168
00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:13.720
the planiff was committed to helping him, so she agreed

169
00:13:13.759 --> 00:13:16.039
to meet with Combs. Now, let's stop right there for

170
00:13:16.080 --> 00:13:18.120
a second and let me break that down for you.

171
00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:22.080
Shawn Combs is calling this man's girlfriend saying, Hey, I

172
00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:25.399
want to talk to you because I'm thinking about firing

173
00:13:25.440 --> 00:13:28.879
your boyfriend because he's not performing up to my standards,

174
00:13:29.240 --> 00:13:31.919
and I want to talk to you about that bullshit

175
00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:36.240
he was plotting. Right, That's not going to happen in

176
00:13:36.240 --> 00:13:39.600
real life. If it was a legit scenario. It's just

177
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:41.919
not going to happen. So it continues on, and it

178
00:13:41.919 --> 00:13:45.320
says in retrospect, it was evidently a sick and twisted

179
00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:48.159
way of using his ownership and title at bad Boy

180
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:52.279
to abuse the plaintiff and show his power and ability

181
00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:56.320
to humiliate her boyfriend. So a few hours later, Combs

182
00:13:56.399 --> 00:14:01.279
arrived at the plainiff's mother's residence and quans with Sherman,

183
00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:06.080
his bodyguard who was employed by Combs. Sherman was driving

184
00:14:06.120 --> 00:14:09.559
in suv in Combs was in the back seat. After

185
00:14:09.600 --> 00:14:12.679
the planiff entered the vehicle, Combs offered her a glass

186
00:14:12.679 --> 00:14:16.000
of wine, which she accepted. Man, if she only knew

187
00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:18.679
what we all know now right, she wouldn't have drank

188
00:14:18.679 --> 00:14:24.320
that wine. Combes began discussing concerns about her boyfriend's performance

189
00:14:24.399 --> 00:14:27.759
at work. Meanwhile, as the planeiff drank would have been

190
00:14:27.799 --> 00:14:31.039
handed to her, she started to feel lightheaded, dizzy, and

191
00:14:31.080 --> 00:14:35.840
physically weak. In retrospect, its clear Combs had caused a

192
00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:38.600
drug to be put in the planeiff's drink, as a

193
00:14:38.639 --> 00:14:42.600
few SIPs of the wine had never impacted her that way.

194
00:14:42.960 --> 00:14:46.440
Combs and Sherman drove the planeiff too. Bad Boys studio

195
00:14:46.639 --> 00:14:49.799
in Manhattan, and when they arrived, the planiff tried to

196
00:14:49.799 --> 00:14:52.639
get out of the car, she realized she was feeling

197
00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:57.200
weird and found it difficult to walk. She assumed this

198
00:14:57.440 --> 00:14:59.879
was her fault and did her best to act nor

199
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.360
normal and followed Comb's as he led her eventually to

200
00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:07.039
a couch in a private room in Bad Boy's studio.

201
00:15:08.159 --> 00:15:12.279
She later came to understand this was Combe's personal lounge

202
00:15:12.320 --> 00:15:16.600
in office at Bad Boy Studios. So Combs sat on

203
00:15:16.639 --> 00:15:19.919
the couch next to the planeiff and he continued speaking

204
00:15:19.960 --> 00:15:24.840
to her. The planiff began feeling even more woozy and sedated.

205
00:15:25.480 --> 00:15:31.159
She then lost complete consciousness. When the planiff regained consciousness,

206
00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:35.120
she was naked and her hands were tied behind her

207
00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:40.919
back with what felt like a plastic grocery bag. The

208
00:15:40.960 --> 00:15:45.279
planiff shouted for help, and in response, Sherman, the bodyguard,

209
00:15:45.480 --> 00:15:49.039
lifted her up from the couch and forcefully slammed her

210
00:15:49.159 --> 00:15:54.159
face down on what was apparently a pool table. Shortly thereafter,

211
00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:58.840
Combs entered the room completely naked. Combs reached for a

212
00:15:58.919 --> 00:16:03.720
container of life lubricant that smelled like menthol and proceeded

213
00:16:03.759 --> 00:16:07.759
to apply it to his penis. He then bent the

214
00:16:07.840 --> 00:16:11.360
plaintiff over the table, causing her feet to dangle above

215
00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:17.279
the floor, forcefully held her down and anally penetrated her

216
00:16:17.720 --> 00:16:22.519
without her consent. Plaintiff is four feet eleven inches tall

217
00:16:22.759 --> 00:16:25.559
and only weighed about one hundred and three pounds at

218
00:16:25.600 --> 00:16:30.320
the time, Plainiff was unable to move totally overpowered physically

219
00:16:30.840 --> 00:16:34.519
in addition to being drugged and bound, the plaintiff screamed

220
00:16:34.559 --> 00:16:40.039
out in pain, but Combs continued to violently anally rape her.

221
00:16:40.960 --> 00:16:45.120
He easily physically overpowered her, smashing her head down on

222
00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:49.240
the pool table while she futally tried to wriggle out

223
00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:53.639
from under him. During the brutal attack, the Plainiff vomited

224
00:16:53.919 --> 00:16:57.960
in her mouth and on the table. At one point,

225
00:16:58.039 --> 00:17:05.599
she involuntarily defecated. Combs was undeterred. He wiped himself off,

226
00:17:05.960 --> 00:17:11.839
applied more lubricant, and, without any acknowledgment of the Planeff's distress,

227
00:17:12.440 --> 00:17:18.559
proceeded to vaginally penetrate her. The plainiff experienced intense pain

228
00:17:18.759 --> 00:17:23.720
and burning sensations in her vagina and her anus. Plainiff

229
00:17:23.720 --> 00:17:26.599
continued to scream for help because of the extreme pain

230
00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:32.519
she felt as Combs penetrated her. Over and over. She

231
00:17:32.799 --> 00:17:41.240
then lost consciousness again. The next time she regained consciousness,

232
00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:45.440
the Plainiff was on the couch and Sherman was standing

233
00:17:45.519 --> 00:17:49.559
in front of her with his bare penis in her face.

234
00:17:49.920 --> 00:17:54.440
That's the bodyguard. Sherman slapped the Plainiff in the face

235
00:17:54.640 --> 00:18:00.680
and forcefully inserted his penis into her mouth. Sherman slapped

236
00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:05.039
her yet again and continued to thrust his penis into

237
00:18:05.079 --> 00:18:11.240
the Planiff's mouth. The Plainiff once again lost consciousness. When

238
00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:14.880
she next awoke, the Planiff was on the couch, naked

239
00:18:15.079 --> 00:18:18.880
and alone in the room. The Planeff was in severe

240
00:18:19.079 --> 00:18:24.240
pain and distress. Her anus and vagina burned, her face

241
00:18:24.480 --> 00:18:29.400
and wrist were bruised, and her genital area smelled strongly

242
00:18:29.599 --> 00:18:33.680
of menthol. She felt a liquid, which she presumed to

243
00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:37.640
be seemen, dripping out from inside her.

244
00:18:37.880 --> 00:18:38.519
Oh this is.

245
00:18:38.799 --> 00:18:44.319
Awful, What a fucking punk. Her dress was thrown over her,

246
00:18:44.519 --> 00:18:48.039
her purse was on the couch next to her, and

247
00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:51.119
her brawl was on the floor nearby. She did not

248
00:18:51.359 --> 00:18:56.640
even see her underpants. Terrified that Comb's and Sherman would return,

249
00:18:56.799 --> 00:18:59.680
the Planiff quickly got dressed and bolted out of the

250
00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:04.559
stew room where she had been raped. Still dizzy and weak,

251
00:19:04.759 --> 00:19:09.680
the plane, if called a driver that her family regularly

252
00:19:09.960 --> 00:19:14.200
hired and she knew well. The driver picked her up

253
00:19:14.240 --> 00:19:19.839
from outside of Bad Boys studios. She was dishoveled, crying uncontrollably,

254
00:19:20.039 --> 00:19:24.279
and suffering from agonizing pain. The driver drove her to

255
00:19:24.319 --> 00:19:27.279
the hospital and tried to convince her to report the

256
00:19:27.359 --> 00:19:30.920
rape and get a rape kit, but she was unable

257
00:19:31.039 --> 00:19:34.240
to leave the car. She was shaking and crying hysterically

258
00:19:34.359 --> 00:19:36.920
and terrified of what comes would do to her and

259
00:19:36.960 --> 00:19:40.240
her family if she reported him, And y'all, there you

260
00:19:40.359 --> 00:19:43.279
have it. She just nailed it. If you're want of

261
00:19:43.279 --> 00:19:46.200
those people out there that say, how could this happen?

262
00:19:47.039 --> 00:19:50.960
This many times and nobody say anything until Cassie finally

263
00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:55.000
spoke out against Diddy, it's because they were scared shitless.

264
00:19:56.319 --> 00:19:58.960
This dude was a billionaire. He will fucking kill you

265
00:20:00.279 --> 00:20:04.839
and nobody will ever know what happened to you. He

266
00:20:04.920 --> 00:20:08.279
will just make you flat out and disappear. That's why

267
00:20:08.319 --> 00:20:12.079
none of this was reported by these victims. This was

268
00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:16.920
a scary motherfucker. Unless you're someone that's you know, you

269
00:20:17.000 --> 00:20:20.319
have no fear of man. In that case, he ain't

270
00:20:20.359 --> 00:20:24.160
shit but if you're scared of him, you're not gonna

271
00:20:24.200 --> 00:20:26.640
say anything. You don't want to lose your life over

272
00:20:26.680 --> 00:20:31.559
this asshole. So the rape occurred. In the lawsuit continues

273
00:20:31.599 --> 00:20:35.599
on and it says the planeiff suffered serious physical injuries

274
00:20:35.759 --> 00:20:39.440
in the aftermath of the rape, As noted, she had

275
00:20:39.519 --> 00:20:42.880
burning in her vagina and anus and bruising on her

276
00:20:42.920 --> 00:20:45.960
rest and face, and the days after the assault she

277
00:20:46.119 --> 00:20:51.079
suffered prolonged anal bleeding and hemorrhoids. Because of comes power

278
00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:55.039
and notoriety, the Planeff was afraid to report what had happened.

279
00:20:55.160 --> 00:20:58.279
She was involved in a divorce and custody battle at

280
00:20:58.279 --> 00:21:01.160
the time, in fear that reports the rape would cause

281
00:21:01.200 --> 00:21:04.519
her to lose custody of her young child, The plaintiff

282
00:21:04.559 --> 00:21:08.759
confided in her boyfriend, Combe's employee, hoping he would comfort

283
00:21:08.839 --> 00:21:13.039
and support her, but instead of supporting her, he discouraged

284
00:21:13.079 --> 00:21:16.720
her from disclosing the assault, telling her it could negatively

285
00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:20.599
impact his own career. Yeah, that will be the time

286
00:21:20.599 --> 00:21:23.519
to break up with him right following the assault. In

287
00:21:23.680 --> 00:21:27.319
multiple times over the years, both Combe's and Sherman they

288
00:21:27.400 --> 00:21:31.359
contacted the plaintiff and they would warn her to stay silent,

289
00:21:31.960 --> 00:21:37.079
threatening repercussions, including the plaintiff potentially losing custody of her

290
00:21:37.079 --> 00:21:40.400
son if she ever disclosed the assault. Because of their

291
00:21:40.599 --> 00:21:44.440
enormous power in the industry, including through their ownership and

292
00:21:44.519 --> 00:21:48.880
positions at the Combs Corporations, plaintiff knew that they could

293
00:21:48.920 --> 00:21:52.960
follow through on those threats. The plaintiff told close friends

294
00:21:53.039 --> 00:21:56.559
that Comb's and Sherman had drugged and savagely raped her,

295
00:21:56.960 --> 00:22:00.440
but as noted, she was afraid to report those attacks

296
00:22:00.640 --> 00:22:03.680
to the police out of fear that the defendants would

297
00:22:03.680 --> 00:22:07.000
follow through on those threats. She was even afraid to

298
00:22:07.039 --> 00:22:10.960
stay in New York City while Combs lived there, so

299
00:22:11.079 --> 00:22:14.640
with the help of a friend, she fled to Pennsylvania.

300
00:22:15.480 --> 00:22:20.000
The planiff has in fact relocated multiple times throughout the

301
00:22:20.079 --> 00:22:22.920
years in an effort to stay away from Combs. The

302
00:22:23.000 --> 00:22:27.160
planiff has suffered irreputable harm because of the brutal rape

303
00:22:27.160 --> 00:22:31.400
by the defendants, both Combs and German, and she suffers

304
00:22:31.440 --> 00:22:35.799
from severe depression and post traumatic stress disorder. She also

305
00:22:35.920 --> 00:22:42.279
has suffered suicidal thoughts and has attempted to end her life.

306
00:22:42.359 --> 00:22:46.480
The planiff lives in constant fear. She struggles with hypervisilance

307
00:22:47.319 --> 00:22:52.240
and experiences anxiety and panic attacks in social settings, preferring

308
00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:55.039
to be alone. Her need to hide to feel safe

309
00:22:55.079 --> 00:22:59.079
has strained her relationships with friends and family. The defendants

310
00:22:59.200 --> 00:23:02.839
rape has also impacted the planeff's ability to engage in

311
00:23:02.960 --> 00:23:06.559
sexual acts with intimate partners. To this day, she cannot

312
00:23:06.559 --> 00:23:12.000
be in certain sexual positions without experiencing flashbacks of Combs

313
00:23:12.079 --> 00:23:17.640
violently penetrating her from behind. So on November twenty seventh

314
00:23:17.640 --> 00:23:21.160
of twenty twenty three, all the trauma of that rape

315
00:23:21.319 --> 00:23:25.440
came flooding back to the plaintiff when her former boyfriend

316
00:23:26.000 --> 00:23:28.480
revealed to her for the first time that Combes and

317
00:23:28.480 --> 00:23:33.079
Sherman had recorded and published the video of the horrific attack.

318
00:23:33.519 --> 00:23:38.000
Earlier that month, Cassie Ventura had come forward and filed

319
00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:42.000
a lawsuit against Combs for subjecting her to years of

320
00:23:42.160 --> 00:23:46.119
severe sexual and physical abuse. That case had been settled

321
00:23:46.200 --> 00:23:49.960
one day after it had been filed. The plainiff's former

322
00:23:50.039 --> 00:23:55.839
boyfriend invoked Miss Ventura's effort to hold Comb's accountable and

323
00:23:55.960 --> 00:24:00.039
for the first time confess it years earlier, but some

324
00:24:00.279 --> 00:24:04.000
time after the actual rape itself, Sherman and Combs had

325
00:24:04.079 --> 00:24:07.119
showed him and a group of men, some of who

326
00:24:07.599 --> 00:24:12.119
were also employed by Combs the video of the plaintiff

327
00:24:12.279 --> 00:24:15.680
being raped. He disclosed that Combs and Sherman had a

328
00:24:15.759 --> 00:24:21.440
pattern and practice of non consensually recording women engaged in

329
00:24:21.519 --> 00:24:25.720
sexual acts and making those videos available to the public,

330
00:24:26.319 --> 00:24:31.720
including by selling tapes as pornography. A Bad Boy artist

331
00:24:31.920 --> 00:24:36.480
later corroborated in a text message that Sherman used to

332
00:24:36.559 --> 00:24:40.400
sell porn of him doing this to chicks, and that

333
00:24:40.440 --> 00:24:43.640
Sherman did this to a whole lot of women. The

334
00:24:43.680 --> 00:24:46.960
plainiff's former boyfriend reported that he and the other men

335
00:24:47.119 --> 00:24:50.319
watched the recording of the plaintiff raped on a hand

336
00:24:50.559 --> 00:24:55.440
held camera while at Bad Boy studio in New York. Comb, Sherman,

337
00:24:55.559 --> 00:24:59.200
and the other men made derogatory comments about the former

338
00:24:59.319 --> 00:25:03.279
boyfriend's relationship with the plaintiff in an attempt to shame

339
00:25:03.400 --> 00:25:07.119
him into cutting ties with the planiff and to cause

340
00:25:07.160 --> 00:25:11.839
her further emotional harm and embarrassment. On information and belief,

341
00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:15.319
the defendant continued to show the video of the rape

342
00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:20.200
to others over the years and through the present and

343
00:25:20.480 --> 00:25:25.480
or sold the video as pornography, so the plainiff. She

344
00:25:25.640 --> 00:25:28.920
was shocked and horrified that Combs and Sherman had recorded

345
00:25:29.039 --> 00:25:34.000
and publicized a video of them raping her. After over

346
00:25:34.240 --> 00:25:38.160
two decades spent trying to heal and distance herself from

347
00:25:38.160 --> 00:25:42.759
the experience, the Planiff was devastated by this news. She

348
00:25:42.880 --> 00:25:45.920
felt as if her life had been turned upside down

349
00:25:46.160 --> 00:25:50.359
again and like the rape had been happening again and

350
00:25:50.400 --> 00:25:54.400
again even as she was trying to forget it. She

351
00:25:54.559 --> 00:26:01.160
experienced psychological distress. She plunged into a deep depress, started

352
00:26:01.200 --> 00:26:05.519
having suicidal thoughts, and she lives with the distress of

353
00:26:05.640 --> 00:26:09.480
knowing the video of her brutal rape is in circulation

354
00:26:09.759 --> 00:26:12.839
and that anyone, including her family, friends, and peers, could

355
00:26:12.920 --> 00:26:16.240
view it at any time. In a panic, she reached

356
00:26:16.319 --> 00:26:20.599
out to sherman, that bodyguard, after learning about the tape,

357
00:26:20.839 --> 00:26:25.400
hoping to protect herself from further humiliation and convincing him

358
00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:29.000
to destroy the tape or provide it to her, but

359
00:26:29.160 --> 00:26:32.759
he did not respond. And then it goes, y'all into

360
00:26:32.839 --> 00:26:37.920
his history of sexual assault, which we cover all the time,

361
00:26:38.359 --> 00:26:42.279
So I won't get into all of that, but I

362
00:26:42.400 --> 00:26:47.119
told you it was a graphic one, and indeed it

363
00:26:47.519 --> 00:26:54.000
was just absolutely disgusting, and y'all, I can't believe this

364
00:26:54.279 --> 00:26:57.160
asshole is just now going to be paying for all

365
00:26:57.200 --> 00:27:01.920
this stuff. And look all the late that I've covered

366
00:27:01.960 --> 00:27:05.799
on here that have came forward our heroes. But how

367
00:27:05.799 --> 00:27:11.640
about the one that kicked all of this shit off, Cassie? Remember, y'all,

368
00:27:11.680 --> 00:27:16.720
she was the first. Were it not for Cassie having

369
00:27:16.759 --> 00:27:21.400
the absolute bravery of coming out and telling all that

370
00:27:21.480 --> 00:27:25.519
bullshit that Dinny had done to her, none of the

371
00:27:25.559 --> 00:27:29.279
other people, in all likelihood would have came out, probably ever,

372
00:27:30.519 --> 00:27:35.119
and this asshole would still be walking around today doing

373
00:27:35.480 --> 00:27:39.559
the same things to just about every woman he came across.

374
00:27:40.240 --> 00:27:43.599
So there you have it, that lawsuit. It's hitting the

375
00:27:43.640 --> 00:27:47.480
news right This is just the other day from this recording.

376
00:27:47.519 --> 00:27:52.440
And guess what, just two days later, on the twenty

377
00:27:52.519 --> 00:28:00.519
sixth of September, another fucking lawsuit, this time five by

378
00:28:00.599 --> 00:28:04.960
a Jane Doe. And I'm not going to cover this

379
00:28:05.000 --> 00:28:07.759
one in detail, y'all. I'm just going to kind of

380
00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:13.039
summarize it for you and tell you the circumstances behind it.

381
00:28:13.839 --> 00:28:16.599
So it was brought forth by a woman and she

382
00:28:16.799 --> 00:28:21.559
alleged that she was drugged and sexually assaulted by showing

383
00:28:22.079 --> 00:28:25.960
ditty combs. She's referred to in this lawsuit as a

384
00:28:26.079 --> 00:28:29.440
Jane Doe, and she claimed that her encounters with Ditty

385
00:28:29.559 --> 00:28:33.559
began in the fall of twenty twenty while she was abroad.

386
00:28:34.119 --> 00:28:37.960
An invitation from the rapper led her to an all

387
00:28:37.960 --> 00:28:42.119
expense paid TRUP that would ultimately set the stage for

388
00:28:42.200 --> 00:28:46.920
a disturbing four year or deal. So she alleged that

389
00:28:47.000 --> 00:28:51.839
her interactions with Ditty were not entirely consensual. She said

390
00:28:52.079 --> 00:28:56.400
there were instances of manipulation and harassment, and that she

391
00:28:56.559 --> 00:29:01.960
felt pressured into these sexual meetings with did And, according

392
00:29:02.000 --> 00:29:05.079
to the lawsuit, did he arrange for her to visit

393
00:29:05.279 --> 00:29:09.519
various properties that he owned across major cities, and she

394
00:29:10.039 --> 00:29:13.960
named Los Angeles, New York, and Miami in particular. However,

395
00:29:14.359 --> 00:29:19.839
she asserted that these visits were orchestrated through coursive tactics

396
00:29:19.880 --> 00:29:23.279
employed by Diddy and his team, making her feel as

397
00:29:23.359 --> 00:29:26.519
though she had no real choice in the matter. Look,

398
00:29:26.960 --> 00:29:32.279
he was the world's best manipulator, right and the lawsuit

399
00:29:32.440 --> 00:29:37.359
detailed some alarming incidents where the plaintiff claimed did He

400
00:29:37.559 --> 00:29:42.319
utilized bike drinks to compromise her ability to consent, imagine

401
00:29:42.359 --> 00:29:48.559
that his mo his whole freaking mo. One particular troubling

402
00:29:48.720 --> 00:29:53.359
incident occurred in April of twenty twenty two, and it

403
00:29:53.480 --> 00:30:00.000
involved forced sexual intercourse at his La residence. She reported

404
00:30:00.599 --> 00:30:06.200
sustaining physical injuries during the encounters, including bruises and bite marks,

405
00:30:06.319 --> 00:30:11.400
which she can't account for. In another disturbing allegation, in

406
00:30:11.519 --> 00:30:15.440
July twenty twenty two, Ditty reportedly forced her to use

407
00:30:15.559 --> 00:30:19.400
ketamine and other substances, and it led her to black

408
00:30:19.440 --> 00:30:24.960
out sound familiar. Following this incident, Jane claims to have

409
00:30:25.319 --> 00:30:31.039
get ready for this become pregnant, only to face immense

410
00:30:31.160 --> 00:30:38.000
pressure from one of Ditty's associates to terminate the pregnancy. However,

411
00:30:38.279 --> 00:30:46.359
ultimately she suffered a miscarriage. So even after that miscarriage,

412
00:30:47.119 --> 00:30:51.880
the Jane Doe, she alleged that Ditty relentlessly attempted to

413
00:30:51.960 --> 00:30:56.200
maintain control over her life. He bombarded her with calls

414
00:30:56.319 --> 00:31:01.319
and messages until she felt compelled to meet with him again.

415
00:31:02.559 --> 00:31:08.680
And of course, this cycle of intimidation extended into July

416
00:31:09.480 --> 00:31:14.960
of twenty twenty four. Yep, just a few freaking months ago.

417
00:31:15.119 --> 00:31:18.319
This guy's in all this trouble and he can't stop.

418
00:31:18.599 --> 00:31:22.079
That's why he can never be released from jail. Right there,

419
00:31:22.440 --> 00:31:26.160
the Planet expressed that she feared for her safety. She

420
00:31:26.240 --> 00:31:30.720
also stated that she observed Ditty demonstrating violent behavior toward

421
00:31:30.839 --> 00:31:36.039
other women, which exasperated her concerns. She claimed that Diddy

422
00:31:36.119 --> 00:31:40.240
had found ways to track her movements and monitor her communications,

423
00:31:40.640 --> 00:31:45.039
continuing to exert influence over her life long after their

424
00:31:45.200 --> 00:31:51.119
initial encounters. So that's just a quick executive report, I

425
00:31:51.119 --> 00:31:56.160
guess you could call it. Of that newest lawsuit, I've

426
00:31:56.160 --> 00:31:59.680
got one more for you today. Now, it's important to

427
00:31:59.720 --> 00:32:05.000
know that this particular lawsuit was not filed recently. As

428
00:32:05.039 --> 00:32:08.200
a matter of fact, it was filed on May eighth

429
00:32:08.240 --> 00:32:11.799
of twenty seventeen, and it was filed by a female

430
00:32:11.880 --> 00:32:14.759
that was hired to be his chef. And the reason

431
00:32:14.799 --> 00:32:18.920
that I'm covering this is that, honestly, nobody's covering it.

432
00:32:19.640 --> 00:32:22.920
Number one and number two. It speaks to the fact

433
00:32:22.960 --> 00:32:27.880
that these lawsuits against Diddy go back many, many years.

434
00:32:27.920 --> 00:32:32.119
I mean, he's been doing this shit forever and it's

435
00:32:32.319 --> 00:32:36.359
just now hitting the fan. But this particular lawsuit was

436
00:32:36.480 --> 00:32:40.960
nearly eight years ago. Here are the facts in that case.

437
00:32:41.359 --> 00:32:45.079
Cindy Ruda, who, as I said, was hired as a chef.

438
00:32:45.480 --> 00:32:48.160
So I'm going to tell you her story. It reads

439
00:32:48.279 --> 00:32:51.799
the Planet began working as a chef for the benefit

440
00:32:51.960 --> 00:32:55.920
of the defendant, Shawn Combs, at the home of mister

441
00:32:55.960 --> 00:33:00.400
Combs in Los Angeles, California, in January twenty fifth, fifteen.

442
00:33:01.319 --> 00:33:04.359
During this time, the planiff worked on the weekends from

443
00:33:04.480 --> 00:33:10.000
nine am until midnight or two am. The planiff worked

444
00:33:10.039 --> 00:33:13.279
almost every Saturday and Sunday and was paid a flat

445
00:33:13.400 --> 00:33:16.799
rate of one hundred and fifty dollars per day. In

446
00:33:16.880 --> 00:33:19.640
the middle of May of twenty fifteen, the planiff was

447
00:33:19.680 --> 00:33:22.359
asked to work as a chef six days per week

448
00:33:22.480 --> 00:33:26.559
from nine am to midnight. She accepted and was paid

449
00:33:26.599 --> 00:33:30.079
one hundred and fifty dollars per day. In June of

450
00:33:30.160 --> 00:33:33.920
twenty fifteen, the defendant offered the planiff full time work

451
00:33:34.000 --> 00:33:38.119
as a chef. However, the planiff declined due to the

452
00:33:38.440 --> 00:33:43.519
unreasonable hours in pay. The planiff continued her regular weekend

453
00:33:43.559 --> 00:33:48.039
schedule on Saturday, Saturdays, and Sundays from nine am to

454
00:33:48.200 --> 00:33:51.880
midnight or two am four one hundred and fifty dollars

455
00:33:51.920 --> 00:33:57.119
per day. On or around September twenty seventh of twenty fifteen,

456
00:33:57.279 --> 00:34:01.440
the defendant offered the plaintiff in writing full time work

457
00:34:01.519 --> 00:34:06.039
as an exempt employee. Chef. The planiff accepted and worked

458
00:34:06.119 --> 00:34:09.719
every day as the lead chef for the California residence

459
00:34:09.800 --> 00:34:13.639
of mister Combs. The planiff was required to report to

460
00:34:13.719 --> 00:34:17.280
work daily at nine am and to be available to

461
00:34:17.360 --> 00:34:21.559
work until midnight or to thirty am, depending on the

462
00:34:21.639 --> 00:34:27.119
activities of and events hosted by mister Combs. The planiff

463
00:34:27.199 --> 00:34:30.599
was also required to travel with mister Combs when his

464
00:34:30.719 --> 00:34:36.159
work required him to appear at events outside of Los Angeles, California.

465
00:34:38.000 --> 00:34:42.039
The planiff was not provided additional income for days she

466
00:34:42.199 --> 00:34:45.840
was required to work until to thirty am, or days

467
00:34:45.880 --> 00:34:49.679
when she was required to travel with mister Combs, so

468
00:34:49.880 --> 00:34:53.159
on her Around October of twenty fifteen, when the planiff

469
00:34:53.519 --> 00:34:56.679
first travel with mister Combs, the planiff complained about not

470
00:34:56.840 --> 00:35:00.760
receiving additional pay for having to travel for eight days

471
00:35:00.800 --> 00:35:05.280
with mister Combs to serve as as personal chef. The

472
00:35:05.320 --> 00:35:09.840
planiff was told by the personal assistant of mister Combs

473
00:35:10.320 --> 00:35:13.239
and the estate director for mister Combs that the planiff

474
00:35:13.280 --> 00:35:17.039
would only receive her regular pay despite the required travel.

475
00:35:17.320 --> 00:35:21.199
That's bullshit. On or around December of twenty fifteen, when

476
00:35:21.239 --> 00:35:24.119
the planiff traveled for the second time, when mister Combs.

477
00:35:24.199 --> 00:35:28.599
The planiff complained that she should receive additional compensation for

478
00:35:28.719 --> 00:35:31.760
having to travel with mister Combs for fourteen days. One

479
00:35:31.840 --> 00:35:35.960
hundred percent agree with that. The estate director then asked

480
00:35:35.960 --> 00:35:38.880
the planiff to keep track of her hours and permitted

481
00:35:39.159 --> 00:35:43.599
the planeff vacation time. After her vacation, the planiff returned

482
00:35:43.599 --> 00:35:46.320
to her employment and was required to report to work

483
00:35:46.440 --> 00:35:49.480
daily at nine am and be available to work until

484
00:35:49.519 --> 00:35:53.760
midnight or to thirty am, depending on activities and events

485
00:35:53.840 --> 00:35:57.719
hosted by mister Combs. Having been instructed to keep track

486
00:35:57.760 --> 00:36:00.599
of her hours, the planiff believes she would be paid

487
00:36:00.679 --> 00:36:04.239
per the hours she worked and reported. However, the defendant

488
00:36:04.360 --> 00:36:08.679
continued to pay plaintiff as an exempt employee. Planeiff made

489
00:36:08.800 --> 00:36:14.039
no less than three more complaints regarding additional compensation for

490
00:36:14.199 --> 00:36:18.320
excessive work hours. However, the planiff was only paid the

491
00:36:18.400 --> 00:36:22.519
flat rate until her termination in May of twenty sixteen.

492
00:36:23.599 --> 00:36:26.679
In addition to her complaints were going to pay, the

493
00:36:26.719 --> 00:36:34.440
planiff also complained about inappropriate conduct and harassing confrontations while

494
00:36:34.480 --> 00:36:38.239
she worked Here we go Right. During her employment, the

495
00:36:38.280 --> 00:36:41.440
planiff worked as a chef. She also served mister Combs

496
00:36:41.480 --> 00:36:44.880
and his guests. The meal she prepared for mister Combs

497
00:36:44.960 --> 00:36:49.039
and his guest, and she was regularly summoned by mister

498
00:36:49.119 --> 00:36:52.400
Combs to prepare and serve entrees and appetizers to him

499
00:36:52.400 --> 00:36:55.519
and his guests while mister Combs and his guests were

500
00:36:55.559 --> 00:37:02.280
engaged in or immediately following sactual activity. On no less

501
00:37:02.320 --> 00:37:05.800
than one occasion, when the planiff was summoned by mister

502
00:37:05.840 --> 00:37:09.440
Combs to serve him a meal, as the planiff entered

503
00:37:09.440 --> 00:37:12.760
the room, mister Combs was naked and made comments about

504
00:37:12.760 --> 00:37:16.400
his body to the planiff and ultimately asked the visibly

505
00:37:16.480 --> 00:37:20.599
uncomfortable plaintiff if she was attracted to or liked his

506
00:37:20.840 --> 00:37:24.039
naked body. On no less than one occasion, while the

507
00:37:24.079 --> 00:37:26.840
planiff was in the kitchen preparing a meal, a male

508
00:37:26.960 --> 00:37:29.639
guest of mister Combs approached the plain iff in the

509
00:37:29.719 --> 00:37:33.719
nude to ask her to look at and admired his balls.

510
00:37:34.320 --> 00:37:37.800
After he engaged in sexual activity with another house guest,

511
00:37:38.280 --> 00:37:43.320
the planiff was mortified and complained to management. Planiff made

512
00:37:43.400 --> 00:37:47.159
multiple complaints to management about these. In other instances where

513
00:37:47.199 --> 00:37:52.039
the planiff was exposed to activity and approached with conversations

514
00:37:52.079 --> 00:37:55.039
of a sexual nature, the planiff said that because of

515
00:37:55.079 --> 00:37:57.960
her complaints were going to pay and her complaints about

516
00:37:57.960 --> 00:38:02.320
the regular exposure of sexual activity and harassing conversation, she

517
00:38:02.400 --> 00:38:05.440
was alluded into a situation where she could be accused

518
00:38:05.480 --> 00:38:09.480
of theft and ultimately terminated. It was known by house

519
00:38:09.519 --> 00:38:14.920
personnel that the executive housekeeper salvage items discarded by mister

520
00:38:14.960 --> 00:38:19.400
Combs at his residence. In twenty sixteen. That housekeeper approached

521
00:38:19.440 --> 00:38:23.480
the planiff with a watch that the housekeeper said she

522
00:38:23.519 --> 00:38:26.559
had found in a garbage can. The housekeeper asked the

523
00:38:26.559 --> 00:38:29.440
planiff if she wanted it since it was thrown away

524
00:38:29.559 --> 00:38:34.039
by mister Combs. The planiff said sure, and the housekeeper

525
00:38:34.079 --> 00:38:37.079
told her to take it. In the days following, the

526
00:38:37.119 --> 00:38:39.760
planiff was accused of theft and told she would not

527
00:38:39.880 --> 00:38:42.840
be prosecuted as she returned the watch and signed a

528
00:38:42.880 --> 00:38:46.800
waiver of all rights and claims against the defendants as

529
00:38:46.840 --> 00:38:50.840
it relates to her employment. The planiff returned to watch, however,

530
00:38:50.880 --> 00:38:55.559
she refused to sign a waiver. The defendant ultimately terminated

531
00:38:55.719 --> 00:39:01.079
the plainiff on May eighth of twenty sixteen. Throughout the employment,

532
00:39:01.159 --> 00:39:05.920
she was misclassified as exempt and not paid overtime, etc.

533
00:39:07.440 --> 00:39:10.639
And it kind of goes on to say a little

534
00:39:10.679 --> 00:39:15.000
bit more about the fact that their money for overtime

535
00:39:15.039 --> 00:39:19.480
and things of that nature. But even back in twenty seventeen,

536
00:39:20.159 --> 00:39:25.320
these fucking sexual harassment cases, etc. Were hitting against Dinny

537
00:39:25.760 --> 00:39:30.239
and no one was doing anything about It blows my mind. Now,

538
00:39:31.039 --> 00:39:33.360
I'm gonna go ahead and do my closing, and after

539
00:39:33.440 --> 00:39:36.239
I do that, I'm not gonna have that closing music

540
00:39:36.320 --> 00:39:39.519
I normally have because I'm gonna play you in its

beginning of this episode. So it's the actual press conference.

00:39:58.760 --> 00:40:01.880

Much love, thank you for coming today.

586
00:43:05.639 --> 00:43:10.760
I'm attorney Gloria alright, and with me is our client plaintiff,

587
00:43:11.239 --> 00:43:16.039
Thalia Graves. Today we filed a lawsuit in the United

00:43:24.800 --> 00:43:25.800
To use her name.

591
00:43:26.840 --> 00:43:30.880
The case number of the twenty six page complaint is

592
00:43:31.199 --> 00:43:39.840
one call on twenty four hyphen CV hyphen seven two one.

593
00:43:39.960 --> 00:43:45.079
In her lawsuit, Thalia, through her attorneys, sues Sean de

594
00:43:45.239 --> 00:43:50.239
Dey Coombs, also known as the defendant and another individual

595
00:43:50.440 --> 00:43:54.519
and other entities. The complaint alleges, in part in the

596
00:43:54.519 --> 00:43:59.000
first cause of action that defended Combs and another defendant

597
00:43:59.480 --> 00:44:04.480
committed a quote violation of New York City Victims of

598
00:44:04.599 --> 00:44:12.199
Gender Motivated Violence Protection Act by viciously and violently forcing

599
00:44:12.480 --> 00:44:19.280
sexual contact, oral sex, and sexual intercourse on the plaintiff

600
00:44:19.400 --> 00:44:23.519
end quote. In addition, the complaint alleges in the second

601
00:44:23.639 --> 00:44:28.639
cause of action that defendant Combs and another defendant committed

602
00:44:28.719 --> 00:44:33.559
a violation of New York Civil Rights Laws quote Section

603
00:44:33.599 --> 00:44:38.960

604
00:44:39.440 --> 00:44:44.920
and recording it, defendants caused plaintiff to be depicted in

605
00:44:45.159 --> 00:44:51.599
a video image unclothed and with intimate body parts exposed,

606
00:44:52.199 --> 00:44:56.519
and engaged in sexual conduct with another person end quote.

607
00:44:57.559 --> 00:45:02.440
The lawsuit also alleges that quote defendant Combs and another

608
00:45:02.519 --> 00:45:08.599
defendant published and or disseminated the videos without Plaintiff's knowledge

609
00:45:09.039 --> 00:45:15.320
or consent. On information and belief, defendants have continued to

610
00:45:15.400 --> 00:45:20.840
disseminate the video, including by selling it as pornography through

611
00:45:20.880 --> 00:45:25.320
the present end quote. In our complaint, we asked that

612
00:45:25.440 --> 00:45:30.360
quote defendants should be ordered to account for and destroyed

613
00:45:31.079 --> 00:45:34.960
all copies of the video that are in their actual

614
00:45:35.480 --> 00:45:44.280
or constructive possession, custody or control end quote, and that quote,

615
00:45:44.280 --> 00:45:49.840
defendants should be temporarily and permanently enjoined from further disseminating

616
00:45:50.079 --> 00:45:56.159
or publishing any intimate videos of plaintiff end quote. We

617
00:45:56.280 --> 00:45:59.119
also allege in the third cause of action that Combs

618
00:45:59.639 --> 00:46:03.480
and another defendant committed a violation of New York City

619
00:46:03.880 --> 00:46:10.599
Administrative Code Section ten hyphen one eighty quote recording and

620
00:46:10.679 --> 00:46:16.880
showing others the video of themselves violently raping the plaintiff,

621
00:46:17.559 --> 00:46:22.639
and the defendants disposed an intimate image of plaintiff without

622
00:46:22.840 --> 00:46:27.280
her consent end quote. As a result of these and

623
00:46:27.360 --> 00:46:31.639
other allegations in our complaint, we request that judgment be

624
00:46:31.840 --> 00:46:38.239
entered against defendants as follows, awarding compensatory damages for all

625
00:46:38.559 --> 00:46:46.039

00:47:04.159 --> 00:47:08.199

635
00:47:28.039 --> 00:47:32.880
court may deem just and proper as a result of

636
00:47:32.920 --> 00:47:36.199
what is a legend a lawsuit, Thallia alleges that she

637
00:47:36.280 --> 00:47:41.599
has suffered and continues to suffer, among other damages, emotional

638
00:47:41.639 --> 00:47:48.400
harm including mental anguish, emotional distress, humiliation, and physical damage.

639
00:47:49.039 --> 00:47:52.960
In a few minutes, Thalia will speak to the impact

640
00:47:53.119 --> 00:47:56.719
and harm that she has suffered and continues to suffer.

641
00:47:57.599 --> 00:48:01.480
She will take this courageous step because she thinks that

642
00:48:01.599 --> 00:48:05.920
it is important that the public understand the impact that

643
00:48:06.079 --> 00:48:08.440
rape and other criminal.

644
00:48:07.960 --> 00:48:11.119
Acts have on those who have been victimized.

645
00:48:12.599 --> 00:48:16.880
Often, victims do not speak publicly about the specific damages

646
00:48:17.360 --> 00:48:19.360
that criminal acts cause them.

647
00:48:20.079 --> 00:48:22.440
Some of the many reasons that.

648
00:48:22.360 --> 00:48:26.440
Victims do not speak out publicly about this include being

649
00:48:26.559 --> 00:48:31.800
ashamed or shamed for this. But we believe that victims

650
00:48:31.800 --> 00:48:35.440
should not be shamed, and instead those who committed the

651
00:48:35.519 --> 00:48:37.519
criminal acts against.

652
00:48:37.079 --> 00:48:39.719
Them should be ashamed.

653
00:48:39.880 --> 00:48:43.119
And take responsibility for the harm that they have caused

654
00:48:43.199 --> 00:48:48.880
victims to suffer. We are very proud of Failia for

655
00:48:48.960 --> 00:48:52.880
speaking out today in order to help victims of rape

656
00:48:53.079 --> 00:48:57.559
and other acts of sexual violence against them. In addition,

657
00:48:58.239 --> 00:49:02.639
we thank our co council Marrige and while Heather Gregoria

658
00:49:03.679 --> 00:49:09.239
and Jazzily Leiano for their exceptional legal work on this complaint.

659
00:49:11.039 --> 00:49:14.880
Our goal for Thalia is very simple. We want justice

660
00:49:14.920 --> 00:49:19.639
for her and we are looking forward to winning it.

661
00:49:19.639 --> 00:49:22.280
It is long overdue for those who have caused her

662
00:49:22.320 --> 00:49:25.760
to suffer to be held accountable.

663
00:49:28.199 --> 00:49:33.880
The internal pain after being sexually assaulting has been incredibly

664
00:49:34.000 --> 00:49:35.400
deep and hard.

665
00:49:35.119 --> 00:49:36.000
To put into works.

666
00:49:37.760 --> 00:49:42.519
It goes beyond just physical harms caused by and during

667
00:49:42.559 --> 00:49:43.199
the assault.

668
00:49:44.519 --> 00:49:48.159
It's a pain that reaches into your very core of

669
00:49:48.199 --> 00:49:52.960
who you are and leaving emotional cars that may never

670
00:49:53.079 --> 00:49:58.719
fully heard. Some of the hardest parts of this pain

671
00:49:59.360 --> 00:50:03.840
of the state and the guilt I have experienced that

672
00:50:04.000 --> 00:50:07.679
plays a negative part in my day to day ability

673
00:50:08.199 --> 00:50:09.519
to function properly.

674
00:50:11.800 --> 00:50:15.000
Being blamed, question and.

675
00:50:15.039 --> 00:50:22.480
Threatened has often made me feel worthless, isolated, and sometimes

676
00:50:22.559 --> 00:50:25.079
responsible for what happened to me.

677
00:50:26.840 --> 00:50:30.559
My family issues made the pain even worse.

678
00:50:32.280 --> 00:50:35.679
I was already going through a divorce at the time

679
00:50:35.760 --> 00:50:40.000
of the assault and did not get the support that

680
00:50:40.119 --> 00:50:45.719
I needed. I was also faced with disbelief and judgment.

681
00:50:47.840 --> 00:50:50.760
This has put a strain.

682
00:50:50.639 --> 00:50:53.239
On my selection of men and.

683
00:50:53.280 --> 00:51:03.679
Relationships when many relationships became aggressive and abusive, which has

684
00:51:03.719 --> 00:51:10.800
made me feel even more alone. In my struggles, I

685
00:51:10.880 --> 00:51:15.000
go through the spells of being distant and with drawn.

686
00:51:16.280 --> 00:51:19.559
That it's sometimes so hard to leave my house.

687
00:51:21.239 --> 00:51:25.719
The trauma of the assault has taken a tone on

688
00:51:25.880 --> 00:51:34.519
my mental health. I've had PTSD, depression and anxiety.

689
00:51:35.039 --> 00:51:36.360
I'm emotionally scared.

690
00:51:38.159 --> 00:51:41.239
It has been hard for me to trust others, to

691
00:51:41.440 --> 00:51:45.360
form healthy relationships, or even.

692
00:51:45.159 --> 00:51:47.280
Feel safe in my own skin.

693
00:51:51.599 --> 00:51:58.960
Flashbacks, nightmares, and intrusive thoughts make me feel like it's

694
00:51:58.960 --> 00:52:04.679
a constant strugg I also suffer with physical problems such

695
00:52:04.719 --> 00:52:13.320
as chronic pain sexual discomfort. The violation I have experienced

696
00:52:13.800 --> 00:52:20.679
during the assault has had lasting effects on my body

697
00:52:21.280 --> 00:52:30.239
because of ongoing problems and complications. The combination of physical

698
00:52:30.360 --> 00:52:35.960
and emotional pain has created a cycle of suffering from

699
00:52:36.000 --> 00:52:41.199
which it is so odd to break free. I want

700
00:52:41.280 --> 00:52:48.760
to continue on this journey towards recovery and healing. I'm

701
00:52:48.840 --> 00:52:52.559
glad that he is locked up, but that's a temporary

702
00:52:53.079 --> 00:52:54.280
failing off relief.

703
00:53:01.639 --> 00:53:04.599
Dahlia is not going to be taking any questions. I'm

704
00:53:04.599 --> 00:53:11.559
i'fully happy to take some questions, Laura. Can you talk

705
00:53:11.599 --> 00:53:13.920
about the the context of this assault?

706
00:53:14.800 --> 00:53:14.840
What?

707
00:53:15.119 --> 00:53:15.360
Where?

708
00:53:15.480 --> 00:53:15.719
When?

709
00:53:16.119 --> 00:53:16.800
What occasion?

710
00:53:19.960 --> 00:53:24.400
Question is can I speak about the context of this

711
00:53:24.519 --> 00:53:25.360
election assault?

712
00:53:28.159 --> 00:53:35.800
No, Clia, can you just speak on Uh, you know

713
00:53:35.840 --> 00:53:38.079
it's difficult for your client going through this, but.

714
00:53:39.679 --> 00:53:42.199
What prompted her to come forward.

715
00:53:42.239 --> 00:53:50.480
Now it was time to file this lawsuit?

716
00:53:55.519 --> 00:53:55.840
Relia?

717
00:53:56.679 --> 00:53:59.639
What do you know about the video that was a

718
00:53:59.719 --> 00:54:04.159
little recorded during the other Why did you.

719
00:54:04.599 --> 00:54:06.559
Question is what do I know about the video that

720
00:54:06.719 --> 00:54:07.320
was recorded?

721
00:54:07.400 --> 00:54:07.559
Yeah?

722
00:54:07.599 --> 00:54:09.320
What are you know worth it now? Is it still

723
00:54:10.320 --> 00:54:11.559
thinks and the worries of.

724
00:54:11.559 --> 00:54:20.000
You Yeah, there are many details.

725
00:54:19.559 --> 00:54:24.840
In the complaint. Where did you get the.

726
00:54:24.840 --> 00:54:30.039
Complaint alleges that it was taken without her knowledge and consent,

727
00:54:31.599 --> 00:54:40.800
that she wouldn't have consented, that it was then uh

728
00:54:41.119 --> 00:54:50.599
published and viewed by others and they still.

729
00:54:52.719 --> 00:54:55.119
Be out there being viewed.

730
00:54:58.440 --> 00:55:02.000
Where did to the allegations of complaint overlap in any

731
00:55:02.000 --> 00:55:05.119
way with the criminal charges against mister Cummins.

732
00:55:07.159 --> 00:55:11.880
The question is does this complaint overlap with the criminal

733
00:55:11.960 --> 00:55:14.840
charges that have been filed.

734
00:55:16.000 --> 00:55:19.800
My understanding of the criminal charges are that.

735
00:55:19.840 --> 00:55:34.360
The charges are sex, trafficking, RICO, and transportation of a prostitute.

736
00:55:35.280 --> 00:55:41.199
We are not alleging any of those criminal charges in

737
00:55:41.280 --> 00:55:41.920
our complaint.

738
00:55:44.119 --> 00:55:46.360
Has she been in touch with federal prosecutors?

739
00:55:46.400 --> 00:55:51.000
I don't question is have I've been in touch? Has

740
00:55:51.320 --> 00:55:53.239
you were trying to be in touch with a federal

741
00:55:53.239 --> 00:56:04.800
prosecutor about progation? About this? I have no comment, Gloria.

742
00:56:04.840 --> 00:56:09.199
What about a grand jury? Heard me? Grand jury? Federal

743
00:56:09.199 --> 00:56:12.800
prosecutors or a grand jury? Who's this grave's supposed to either?

744
00:56:14.119 --> 00:56:17.599
Is the question? Has she testified before the grand jury?

745
00:56:17.639 --> 00:56:17.760
Is that?

746
00:56:17.840 --> 00:56:26.960
The question is? We let's put this way.

747
00:56:27.679 --> 00:56:32.800
I never comment on whether any of my clients have

748
00:56:32.960 --> 00:56:37.400
testified before the grand jury or will testify.

749
00:56:38.519 --> 00:56:39.519
Before the grand.

750
00:56:39.360 --> 00:56:47.079
Jury, since the grand jury is a secret proceeding.

751
00:56:49.320 --> 00:56:53.440
Gloria, this other defendant in the video, alleged defendant, is

752
00:56:53.480 --> 00:56:54.280
this a celebrity?

753
00:56:56.440 --> 00:56:59.920
It is the other defendant alleged to be in the video.

754
00:57:00.199 --> 00:57:01.840
And what was the major of your question?

755
00:57:02.079 --> 00:57:06.039
Is that person that alleged defendant? Is that person a celebrity?

756
00:57:07.000 --> 00:57:13.000
Is the person that has not been named by me.

757
00:57:14.840 --> 00:57:20.559
A celebrity, not as far as I.

758
00:57:20.480 --> 00:57:25.559
Know, Laura, as disturbing as the video.

759
00:57:25.639 --> 00:57:28.559
Maybe, have you yourself like an eye from the video?

760
00:57:28.920 --> 00:57:30.840
Have I looked at the video? No?

761
00:57:32.960 --> 00:57:35.559
I have not viewed the video, nor do I wish

762
00:57:35.599 --> 00:57:39.280
to view the video, nor should anyone else view the video,

763
00:57:40.880 --> 00:57:42.239
with the exception of.

764
00:57:43.840 --> 00:57:45.679
If law enforcement.

765
00:57:46.760 --> 00:57:51.719
And a court believe that they should and are permitted

766
00:57:51.760 --> 00:57:56.039
to view a pornographic video.

767
00:57:55.599 --> 00:57:58.920
As evidence in the case, if they have.

768
00:57:58.760 --> 00:58:04.519
It, then that would be it or Luria.

769
00:58:04.639 --> 00:58:06.719
Just be clear, we don't ever.

770
00:58:08.440 --> 00:58:12.000
View pornographic videos, even if they might end up being

771
00:58:12.199 --> 00:58:16.719
evidence in the case, and we do not transmit any

772
00:58:16.840 --> 00:58:21.559
such video if we have it, to any other person,

773
00:58:22.880 --> 00:58:27.440
because we do not think it is permitted under the law.

774
00:58:29.480 --> 00:58:32.320
Lauria Elizabeth bid Mister Cristina.

775
00:58:32.360 --> 00:58:34.239
U, I would you please speak up? It's hard to

776
00:58:34.280 --> 00:58:34.519
hear you.

777
00:58:34.599 --> 00:58:37.360
Yes, sorry, I'm not here and a bit short. Uh

778
00:58:37.599 --> 00:58:39.719
in the complaint? Uh, you know that that.

779
00:58:39.679 --> 00:58:43.480
Your client learned about this video in November twenty twenty three,

780
00:58:43.960 --> 00:58:47.119
that is around the time of the first public lawsuit

781
00:58:47.119 --> 00:58:51.559
at least against Shawn Holms. I'm from his actual frontacy.

782
00:58:51.679 --> 00:58:56.199
I'm curious how you and your client learned about the existence.

783
00:58:55.679 --> 00:58:56.320
Of this video.

784
00:58:57.320 --> 00:59:01.519
You're saying that this incident occur as alleged to have

785
00:59:01.599 --> 00:59:04.800
occurred about the time of another lawsuit having a I

786
00:59:04.840 --> 00:59:07.719

787
00:59:07.679 --> 00:59:11.840
Her the complaint UH, this uh alleged incident occurred in

788
00:59:11.880 --> 00:59:13.840
two thousand and one, but your.

789
00:59:13.719 --> 00:59:15.880
Client learned about the existence of the.

790
00:59:15.880 --> 00:59:19.440
Video in twenty twenty three, more than twenty years after.

791
00:59:20.000 --> 00:59:23.639
I'm curious how she learned about the existence of the video.

792
00:59:24.800 --> 00:59:26.880
Yeah, we have. So the question is.

793
00:59:29.000 --> 00:59:31.960
She alleges that the incident took place in two thousand

794
00:59:31.960 --> 00:59:36.800
and one, but you are saying that it is alleged

795
00:59:36.880 --> 00:59:38.280
in the complaint.

796
00:59:39.320 --> 00:59:41.920
That was filed that she learned about it in two.

797
00:59:41.719 --> 00:59:47.920
Thousand twenty two, And then the question is how did

798
00:59:47.960 --> 00:59:48.840
she learn about it?

799
00:59:50.840 --> 00:59:54.199
We have no comment in response to that question.

800
00:59:54.679 --> 00:59:56.840
Glora hous did you reach out to your client?

801
00:59:57.559 --> 00:59:59.639
Excuse me, PRIs did you reach out to your client?

802
01:00:00.719 --> 01:00:08.480
Question is has Diddy reached out to her? I think

01:00:08.679 --> 01:00:11.559
we will not comment on that either. Gloria.

804
01:00:12.599 --> 01:00:14.599

came from or what she does, Gloria.

813
01:00:34.440 --> 01:00:38.280
If your knowledge, has any law enforcement agency review this

814
01:00:38.440 --> 01:00:40.280
video for hostful criminal charges?

815
01:00:40.800 --> 01:00:40.920

am not able to answered that question.

821
01:01:02.440 --> 01:01:07.039
Your client says that she was threatened after this alleged attack.

822
01:01:07.440 --> 01:01:09.280
Can you elaborate on those threats?

823
01:01:10.280 --> 01:01:10.800
Question is?

824
01:01:10.840 --> 01:01:14.840
Can I elaborate on the allegation that she was threatened

825
01:01:15.639 --> 01:01:22.000
after the attacks? And no, because really I'm not able

826
01:01:22.079 --> 01:01:31.239

827
01:01:31.280 --> 01:01:32.199
that might have.

828
01:01:33.800 --> 01:01:36.599
Evidentiary value at this time.

829
01:01:39.280 --> 01:01:41.679
Or do there's a ah an abligation in the lawsuit

835
01:01:53.800 --> 01:01:56.599
available for sale?

836
01:01:57.280 --> 01:01:57.760
That's new.

837
01:01:57.960 --> 01:02:01.960
There have been other accusers, other women book said that

838
01:02:02.039 --> 01:02:04.599
they believe they were filmed and that the videos were

839
01:02:04.639 --> 01:02:07.440
shared that I think this might be the first UH

840
01:02:08.119 --> 01:02:12.000
complaint allegation that the video was made available for sale.

841
01:02:12.360 --> 01:02:23.199
Somehow, I have not compared what we have alleged in

842
01:02:23.280 --> 01:02:29.400
the lawsuit to what others have previously alleged in their lawsuits,

843
01:02:30.119 --> 01:02:32.360
so I can't tell you whether this is the first.

844
01:02:32.280 --> 01:02:36.599
That has alleged that this video was made available for

845
01:02:36.719 --> 01:02:44.280
sale or not. Would mister Combs be involved in that

846
01:02:44.360 --> 01:02:45.159
alleged sale.

847
01:02:46.480 --> 01:02:51.199
Yeah, there are no other details that we can provide.

848
01:02:53.280 --> 01:02:58.039

849
01:02:58.039 --> 01:02:59.800

01:03:00.760 --> 01:03:04.639

Your client has said that she suffered years and years.

893
01:05:55.280 --> 01:06:00.880
Of trauma, depression, anxiety because of this alleged attack.

894
01:06:01.480 --> 01:06:05.159
Did she come to you after the indictment last week?

895
01:06:05.400 --> 01:06:07.480
I'm asking because I'm wondering that those.

896
01:06:07.519 --> 01:06:10.039
Okay, the question is that she come to me after

897
01:06:10.079 --> 01:06:11.280
the indictment last week?

898
01:06:11.559 --> 01:06:11.719
No?

899
01:06:13.840 --> 01:06:16.920
And as a follow up, how is your client feeling

900
01:06:17.079 --> 01:06:20.440
after those different charges were brought against homes even.

901
01:06:20.199 --> 01:06:21.679
Though he denies them.

902
01:06:21.719 --> 01:06:28.440
How is she feeling after after the charges, after the

903
01:06:28.440 --> 01:06:29.920
criminal charges.

904
01:06:31.119 --> 01:06:40.599
Yes, we're filed. Yes, and that he has been a rate. Okay,

905
01:06:41.760 --> 01:06:44.280
you wanna comment we No, we're not. We're not having

906
01:06:44.280 --> 01:06:49.079
her comment. I'm sorry.

907
01:06:50.079 --> 01:06:56.639
I would say overall, it's been a very stressful and

908
01:06:59.519 --> 01:07:04.679
anxiety be producing experience, and she's lived with all of

909
01:07:04.719 --> 01:07:14.360
it for many years, and you know, is reliving it now.

910
01:07:16.480 --> 01:07:18.360
I think she did comment on.

911
01:07:20.119 --> 01:07:24.480
How she felt about the criminal charges at the end

912
01:07:24.559 --> 01:07:27.880
of her statement, and I'm not going.

913
01:07:27.719 --> 01:07:30.960
To ask her to answer any other questions. With all

914
01:07:31.079 --> 01:07:32.519
due respective, it's a fair.

915
01:07:32.360 --> 01:07:36.880
Question, but she's just not going to be answering questions today.

916
01:07:38.719 --> 01:07:42.039
Gloria, can you tell us how your client came to

917
01:07:42.159 --> 01:07:42.760
meet Ditty.

918
01:07:43.039 --> 01:07:48.159
How can I tell you how my client met Diddy

919
01:07:49.000 --> 01:07:56.079
met Ditty? I am not going to spend on those

920
01:07:56.119 --> 01:07:59.679
details at this press conference, but.

921
01:08:02.159 --> 01:08:05.920
You know, any member of the public or press.

922
01:08:06.800 --> 01:08:12.400
You know, is of course permitted to see whatever is

923
01:08:12.440 --> 01:08:16.840
in the complaint that has been filed in the Southern

924
01:08:16.840 --> 01:08:17.840
District of New York.

925
01:08:19.039 --> 01:08:19.359
Cloria.

926
01:08:19.399 --> 01:08:21.159
Has your client been in contact.

927
01:08:20.800 --> 01:08:21.920
Or any other victims?

928
01:08:22.920 --> 01:08:27.039
Has my client been in contact with any other victims

929
01:08:27.319 --> 01:08:29.760
a lunch trip uh or ledged victims?

930
01:08:33.399 --> 01:08:35.399
I I'm unable to comment on.

931
01:08:37.800 --> 01:08:41.520
Anyone with whom she has been in contact or who

932
01:08:41.560 --> 01:08:46.720
has contacted her.

933
01:08:45.199 --> 01:08:56.840
Because those would be private conversations, so we will maintain the.

934
01:08:56.760 --> 01:09:02.039
Privacy of those conversations. Well, one thing, I don't know

935
01:09:02.199 --> 01:09:07.479
if who am who never contacted her wanted their conversation

936
01:09:07.640 --> 01:09:12.479
to be confidential, so I can't comment on that.

937
01:09:13.119 --> 01:09:16.479
Thank you for the question, Glory. Anything else, Yes, Gloria,

938
01:09:16.560 --> 01:09:17.039
this tape?

939
01:09:17.640 --> 01:09:21.720
Was it secretly made or was the re client aware

940
01:09:22.159 --> 01:09:24.520
that she was being taped during the alleged.

941
01:09:24.199 --> 01:09:27.359
Assault and now it's not out that the tape is

942
01:09:27.439 --> 01:09:29.600
out there? Or does she never even know that she

943
01:09:29.680 --> 01:09:31.359
was being taped during the luge assault?

944
01:09:36.159 --> 01:09:37.560
I can't comment on.

945
01:09:40.000 --> 01:09:44.880
The degree of consciousness or lack of consciousness or awareness

946
01:09:47.239 --> 01:09:55.159
of Thalia during the alleged rape and during the alleged

947
01:09:55.239 --> 01:10:10.119
video taping of the rape. I can say that she

948
01:10:10.159 --> 01:10:15.640
would never have consented to the videotaping and did not

949
01:10:15.880 --> 01:10:22.279
consent and did not authorize the videotaping in the same

950
01:10:22.319 --> 01:10:27.239
way that she alleges that she would never have consented

951
01:10:27.359 --> 01:10:31.880
to be victimized in the way that she alleges that

952
01:10:31.920 --> 01:10:32.399
she was.

953
01:10:38.159 --> 01:10:39.079
And I think you.

954
01:10:39.119 --> 01:10:45.560
Could see today how upsetting it was for Thalia to

955
01:10:45.680 --> 01:10:55.800
have to learn and experience what she alleges that she

956
01:10:56.119 --> 01:10:58.319
did learn and experience.

957
01:10:59.239 --> 01:11:01.640
From that horrific time.

958
01:11:03.880 --> 01:11:07.199
Tell me, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Gloria. Are you representing

959
01:11:07.319 --> 01:11:09.079
any other women that you.

960
01:11:09.159 --> 01:11:10.159
May also be suing?

961
01:11:10.439 --> 01:11:18.600
Am I representing any other women women?

962
01:11:19.680 --> 01:11:23.960
Uh? In reference to did he did?

963
01:11:24.039 --> 01:11:24.079
He?

964
01:11:27.279 --> 01:11:33.319
Yes? So there's other quests, there are other but the

965
01:11:33.359 --> 01:11:40.920
first lawsuit that we have filed and an answer to.

966
01:11:40.880 --> 01:11:43.600
A question which you have not yet asked or probably will,

967
01:11:43.640 --> 01:11:49.720
Am I going to file other lawsuits? I I just

968
01:11:49.720 --> 01:11:55.359
don't have any comment on that at this time. Any

969
01:11:55.359 --> 01:11:57.800
other questions and you c so? Uh?

01:12:01.600 --> 01:12:03.720
They asks that you would be able to comment in Spanish,

01:12:03.720 --> 01:12:06.119
expe if she speaks any stuffy No.

973
01:12:07.039 --> 01:12:11.159
The answer is no, she is not going to be

974
01:12:11.319 --> 01:12:16.199
doing any interviews in English, Spanish or any other.

975
01:12:16.159 --> 01:12:20.680
Language because she speaks Spanish. But thank you for asking,

976
01:12:21.159 --> 01:12:22.239
douse she speaks Spanish.

977
01:12:24.399 --> 01:12:25.000
I don't know.

978
01:12:33.720 --> 01:12:34.800
Any other questions.

979
01:12:36.880 --> 01:12:38.319
I also talk one last question.

980
01:12:39.479 --> 01:12:41.439
Last question, one last questions.

981
01:12:41.439 --> 01:12:44.560
Where as the video goes, do you know or does

982
01:12:44.600 --> 01:12:48.600
your client know if there has been more than one

983
01:12:48.760 --> 01:12:55.279
copy or multiple people have a version of the video.

984
01:13:01.399 --> 01:13:06.479
I I am not able to comment on whether we

985
01:13:06.640 --> 01:13:10.279
know if there is more than one copy of the video.

986
01:13:23.399 --> 01:13:26.800
If there is any witness.

987
01:13:28.119 --> 01:13:33.279
Who wishes to contact me confidentially to tell me that

988
01:13:33.399 --> 01:13:36.520
they know that someone else has a copy, or.

989
01:13:38.680 --> 01:13:41.640
That they have seen it or been told that they.

990
01:13:42.199 --> 01:13:46.640
Someone else saw it online, we would be happy to

991
01:13:46.680 --> 01:13:47.720
speak to that person.

992
01:13:52.479 --> 01:13:54.800
Is there any I think that's a more question question

993
01:13:56.159 --> 01:13:58.720
just for our reporting purposes. Is she a New York

994
01:13:58.800 --> 01:14:03.920
Navy Is she a New York Native native? I can't

995
01:14:03.960 --> 01:14:07.760
tell you at this time.

996
01:14:08.039 --> 01:14:11.880
If if she is a New York native, she does

997
01:14:11.960 --> 01:14:15.239
not reside in New York at this time,
