Well I just saw the breaking news and Puffy had his due process. I waiting for all the facts before I commented on anything. The hotel video was terrible and he was definitely wrong for that. With that said, It was 8 years ago and Cassie did settle., so the matter was over. For the Government to go and make an entire case based off that was BS, sorry. It was a weak case from the beginning and they tired to use the Cassie Civil suit to build this case around and majority of the charges didn't stick. So many people were wrong about this case because they didn't like Puffy. The facts clearly showed that the Government didn't have the strongest case. Which is why they were 2 for 5, So they used the BS RICO to try and put Puffy on trial for things they couldn't legally do for statue purposes.
The MANN ACT clearly has a history of being a racist law. It been used against many successful Black men including the Legendary Jack Johnson. But this actually was a good verdict for Puffy. Sure Not Guilty on all five would have been better. Technically he did fly them out so I guess that was easy to prove but I believe those two "transportation" Charges again can be argued on appeal. Think about it, 5 charges and the the 3 serious ones were not guilty. As soon as they said the jury had a problem with RICO I knew he was good because again that's the #1 charge of the entire thing. Yet all the commentary was saying, "Oh no, Puff in bad shape, they got a verdict too fast". If they didn't agree on RICO then how could they agree on all the others? So much press around this was wrong. Yet people in the Courtroom was saying people were caught in many lies.
All I'm going to say is Puffy has done things I don't agree with but people also put things on him that he didn't do for clicks, likes and views that wasn't true. Are these same people going to make videos saying they were wrong? Doubtful. Anyways let this be a lesson that the Government does and will lie for a conviction including overcharging. Puffy's lawyers went in if you read the transcripts, they proved a lot of lies on the stand. The Witnesses just couldn't get their stories straight. Puffy should have been on trial for Domestic Violence, that's it because that's the video proved. But the statue of limitations ran out so ran with Cassie Civil Suit and tired to lock him up for life and it blew up in their face. They were also trying to take his wealth with the RICO and that failed. Not guilty on the major charges.
