Naw I think he's persona non grata status in the entertainment industry even if he does beat the charges, just way too shyt going against him at this point. Maybe some other fringe cat like Ye will fukk with him, but he's all but done as a brand.

There's a trend of conservatives supporting cancelled people. Diddy and Kanye got money they could find their avenue on alt-right weirdos.

Jury was visually disgusted when shown images of the freak off tapes, Cassie's mom's testimony that she was extorted for 20k or he'd release a sextape of Cassie wasn't even refuted by the defense. Cudi's dog being abused by diddy and house broken into wasn't challenged by the defense. Diddy ain't beating shyt but his dikk for the next 30 years.

That video of him beating Cassie will (rightfully) keep companies from messing with him. Diddy’s draw was he was one of the 3-4 reliable “Hip Hop personalities” who a brand could utilize to sell product and services. Without that he’s really got nothing. And nobody powerful in hip hop will ever fukk with him. Hov, Nas, Ross, Drake, Kendrick. All of that is deaded. He won’t be diddy bopping at any awards shows. His usefulness is at an end.

I believe he’s going to prison but if he somehow beats it he’ll be a pariah.

Because those things aren't enough to get him on RICO charges.
This trial isn't about extortion or animal abuse.

His assistant also testified they bought drugs for diddy and it wasn't challenged. His bodyguards have been implicated in multiple crimes. These are all Bad Boy employees.
So, you feel that prosecution has done a good enough job to convict Diddy of a RICO? That's really what most of this is about. The things you are mentioning aren't individual charges, they are all part of a bigger play by the prosecution to convince the jury of convicting him on a RICO.

For now, we will ignore the Sex Trafficking related charges.

They proved Cassie was beat for trying to leave a freak off, that's kidnapping and Diddy's bodyguards stood by, making them complicit. Capricorn Clark was forced into a car by Diddy and his bodyguards against her will and brought to Cudi's house so Diddy could break in. That's kidnapping again. Diddy extorted Cassie's mom.

In the context of RICO, a criminal enterprise is defined as a group of individuals collaborating to commit a series of related crimes. These crimes can encompass a wide range of illegal activities, including but not limited to fraud, extortion, money laundering, bribery, drug trafficking, and acts of violence such as murder or kidnapping. It’s important to recognize that RICO prosecutions focus on dismantling organized crime syndicates by targeting not only individual criminal acts but also the structure and activities of the enterprise.

So, that means yes for you already.
Most people following the trial haven't been convinced that the prosecution has presented enough for a RICO conviction.
