Defense Moves to Exclude Hearsay Evidence in The Bryana Bongolan Testimony Battle (6/13/25)

In a letter to Judge Subramanian regarding United States v. Combs, the defense addressed the government’s intent to introduce out-of-court statements during Casandra Ventura’s (Cassie’s) testimony under Rule 801. Following the Court’s directive from the April 25, 2025 pre-trial conference, both sides met and conferred on the matter. The government provided the defense with a chart outlining the statements it wishes to admit along with its proposed legal justifications. In turn, the defense submitted detailed objections to certain statements, which they attached as Exhibit A for the Court’s review.Additionally, the defense used the letter to elaborate on its opposition to the government’s attempt to introduce prior consistent statements through Ms. Ventura’s testimony, arguing that their admission would be improper. The defense also objected to new exhibits the government has indicated it intends to present during Ventura’s testimony, raising concerns about their admissibility and relevance. The letter signals an effort by the defense to limit what it views as prejudicial or legally unsupported material from being placed before the jury through Ms. Ventura’s account.to contact me:[email protected]:gov.uscourts.nysd.628425.397.0.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

After lunch on June 13th, 2025, Jonathan Perez resumed his testimony in the federal trial of Sean “Diddy” Combs, offering damning details that reinforced the government’s racketeering and sex trafficking allegations. Perez, a former Combs security employee turned cooperating witness, testified about a specific 2016 incident in Miami where he claimed he witnessed Combs physically assault a woman at a private party and later direct staff to “clean it up” and “get her quiet.” He stated that money was exchanged afterward and that Combs instructed him never to speak of the incident. The prosecution used Perez’s recollection to suggest a pattern of coercion, witness silencing, and obstruction of justice — aligning it with earlier testimony from female accusers who alleged that payouts and intimidation were standard after violent encounters.Perez also told the court that Combs maintained a private surveillance system on his properties, allegedly used to record and archive footage of parties, including potential incriminating material. He said that some of these recordings were stored in a “vault room” accessible only to a small group of trusted insiders, further fueling the prosecution's theory that Combs operated a tightly controlled criminal enterprise. Under cross-examination, the defense sought to discredit Perez by pointing to past drug use and his motivation for cooperating with prosecutors, implying he was seeking leniency for unrelated charges. Still, Perez remained composed and firm in his answers, drawing a clear picture of systemic abuse and calculated coverups under Combs’ direction.to contact me:[email protected]:June 13, 2025 - Day 23 of testimony in the Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs trial | CNNBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

First, the morning opened with testimony from a Homeland Security Investigations agent, Andre Lamon. He told the jury that during the March 2024 raid on Combs’s Los Angeles home, agents located a “security room” where firearms, armor-piercing ammunition, and sixteen boxes of AstroGlide lubricant—alongside hundreds of bottles of baby oil—were stored. When questioned by defense attorney Marc Agnifilo, he confirmed this was the only trafficking case in which he had seized lubricant in such quantities.   The agent clarified that none of the weapons were scattered around the mansion—they were all contained within that secure area .After the agent’s testimony, the prosecution called Jonathan Perez, Combs’s former personal assistant, to the stand. Perez detailed his long shifts (initially $85K, later $100K per year) preparing Combs’s “king nights”—the so-called “freak-offs”—which involved organizing overnight sex events often featuring sheets, oils, massages, and IV drips. He recounted discovering explicit videos of “Jane” and another man, which he reported to Combs and his chief of staff, Kristina Khorram. Perez also described how Combs began paying Jane’s $10,000 monthly rent in 2023 after she resisted attending more of these events—reinforcing the prosecution’s narrative of coercion.   As the testimony wrapped, the judge moved into a sidebar discussing naming a “very successful rapper” tied to a trip Jane mentioned, and shortly thereafter, the jury was dismissed for a lunch break.to contact me:[email protected]:(1) Live updates: Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ trial continues as Kanye West shows up at court | CNNBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

She described the events as "opulent" but also "shocking," with many guests engaging in explicit activities. Fonseca even mentioned personally receiving a drink from Diddy that made her feel unusually euphoric, which she suspected was drugged.The photographer emphasized that while these parties were filled with celebrities and luxury, they often veered into unsettling territory, with rumors of drug use and manipulation circulating throughout the night. In this episode, we hear what she had to say.(commercial at 10:16)to contact me:[email protected]:Diddy party photog who reportedly broke 1999 Jennifer Lopez romance says nude bashes included warning for kids | Fox NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Prosecutors in the case against Sean "Diddy" Combs have expressed concerns about revealing the identities of anonymous accusers, citing serious issues of witness safety and potential obstruction. They argue that early disclosure of these identities could expose witnesses to intimidation or harm, especially given Combs' influence and the nature of the allegations. This stance is in response to Combs' defense team's request for the accusers' names to prepare for trial, which prosecutors contend is premature and could jeopardize the integrity of the proceedings.Additionally, prosecutors emphasize that disclosing accusers' identities at this stage is tantamount to providing an early witness list, which is not customary in criminal cases. They maintain that protecting the anonymity of the accusers is crucial to prevent any potential interference with the judicial process and to ensure that witnesses can testify without fear of retaliation. This approach aims to balance the defendant's right to a fair trial with the necessity of safeguarding the accusers and upholding the integrity of the legal process.(commercial at 8:20)to contact me:[email protected]:Diddy investigators raise ‘serious concerns’ for victims’ safety | Fox NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Singer Good Fridae has made serious allegations against Sean "Diddy" Combs regarding an event she attended at the age of 16. Fridae claimed she met Diddy at a Toronto autograph signing in 1999, where he invited her and a friend to one of his infamous "freak off" parties. Despite informing Diddy that they were underage, Diddy allegedly dismissed the concern, stating that he didn’t check IDs at his parties. At the hotel event, Fridae recalled seeing heavy drug use, including ecstasy and cocaine, and sexual activities involving dancers and hired individuals. Although she was not involved, the scene deeply disturbed her, especially when she observed a locked, guarded room that appeared to be hosting even more explicit activities. The experience left her feeling vulnerable and uneasy, as she had previously sensed negative energy from Diddy during their initial encounter​.As the night progressed, Fridae was told that there were two separate parties, with the second, more exclusive gathering, being referred to as the "freak off." A security guard allegedly prevented her from leaving the party until Diddy invited her to this second room. Frightened, Fridae managed to escape by pretending her phone was still working, threatening to call her father. She claims Diddy chased after her angrily as she fled down the hallway. These allegations have surfaced amidst a wave of accusations against Diddy, who is currently facing multiple charges, including racketeering and sex trafficking. Fridae expressed relief over Diddy's arrest, stating that many people had anticipated this outcome due to his behavior at such events.Let's dive in and see what she had to say!(commercial at 10:40)to contact me:[email protected]:Inside Diddy's 'freak-off' parties with NBA players, ‘terrified’ teen girls, piles of cocaine, and public sex | The SunBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
