any man do that to a woman uh

particularly a very high-profile man

03:11

doing it in such Brazen public manner in

03:15

a in a public place like that was even

03:17

more shocking uh that he had no

03:20

compulsion about doing this where there

03:21

may be cameras but was that indicative

03:24

of Diddy's General Behavior towards

03:28

women

03:31

uh in in my light I would say yes in my

03:34

light I would say yes it didn't surprise

me when I saw it because I've seen

03:39

things to this nature before I've gotten

03:42

in between things of this nature before

03:45

and this was back in

03:47

2012 so that's why I was so adamant on

03:51

what I said yesterday after he posted

03:54

that apology because it comes a time

03:57

where it's like you can't just say

04:00

anything you want to say and think the

04:01

people GNA accept it you know what I'm

04:04

04:12

could pay your way out he knew those

04:13

cameras was there you know but of course

04:25

complaint that they gave her a copy of

04:27

04:34

he wasn't sorry about that yeah he might

04:36

be sorry now he's sorry that he got

04:39

caught but if that was a one-time

04:42

incident then I would say accept his

04:44

04:47

said what he thought people wanted to

04:49

hear how many times did you personally

04:51

witness him be violent towards

04:55

women uh around four or five times and

04:59

what's up all with Cassie or was it

05:01

Cassie and other

05:02

women uh I seen him with Cassie and I

05:05

seen him with Kim Porter his uh kid's

05:08

mother right who's now s sadly no longer

05:14

do uh i' I've seen him get physical I've

05:17

05:22

inside her lawsuit where she said she

05:25

had to go over to the London

05:27

hotel I was the one that was checking on

05:30

her every day at the London hotel you

05:32

know what I'm saying so I know that to

05:34

be true I seen him get into some

05:36

rustling and punching matches and

05:38

sometime I felt like what are you mad at

05:41

what are you upset about because it's

05:43

it's a deeper anger when you hitting and

05:47

punching a woman in that type of manner

05:49

and it's okay it's it's it's understood

05:52

if you have a problem with one woman and

05:55

you seek thing but when you have a

05:56

problem with every woman that you

05:58

06:00

is inside of you what did you see him do

06:07

her up I seen him smack her you know and

07:41

because I did did stop it you know what

07:44

I'm saying and it wasn't a club it was

in front of a black tire fair actually

08:12

side of the car and she bent down and he

08:14

took off for me and he commenced the

08:18

hitting her and I pulled him off of her

08:21

and I threw him in the car and then I

08:23

grabbed her and I threw her in the

08:25

car and they they continued to fight for

08:28

about another block or two

08:30

and then he sat there and he just shook

08:32

his head he just shook his head and said

08:34

08:58

started crying

09:01

there are other parts of her lawsuit

09:03

which I want to just go through quickly

09:04

with you to see what whether you would

09:06

concur with what she claims that did he

09:08

urged and supplied her to take drugs did

09:11

you witness

09:13

that well that yeah I definitely witness

09:15

that you know drugs was a was a a

09:18

regular thing there you know for both of

09:21

them and I didn't have no idea that he

09:23

was forcing her though but you know that

09:26

was the things that they would do you

09:28

know what I'm saying partying they would

09:30

go to the hotel for the weekends they

09:33

would have I guess what they was calling

09:35

the freak offs I guess but uh and just

09:38

to be clear on that sorry just to I ask

09:40

you about the freeof are where it is

09:43

alleged and she alleges that that didd

09:45

feels that he can get it you know if he

10:55

wants it he feels that he can pay for it

10:57

if he wants it you can't tell him know

11:00

and I think at at that particular time

11:02

she was 19 years old we talking about a

11:05

child you know at

11:07

19 uh going against someone I think at

11:10

that time was 38 39 very strong very

11:13

powerful in the music business and he

11:16

took advantage of that and he knew how

11:17

to take advantage of that how did it

11:20

make you feel I mean you've already

11:22

slightly L to this but how do they make

11:24

you feel your security man your job is

11:27

to protect people when you watched a man

11:30

who's a strong man like didd he

11:32

physically attacking women in the way

11:34

that he did what do that make you

11:38

feel I mean it made me feel one like he

11:42

was a uh like one he was wrong I knew he

11:46

was wrong if it happened on my watch I

11:49

would get in between it but I felt

11:51

powerless because I couldn't get in

11:53

between it if I wasn't there I couldn't

11:56

get in between it if you stay and we've

11:59

had conversations you know me and Cassie

12:02

had conversations me and Kim had

12:05

conversations and Kim was basically

12:08

telling me she said bonds I got four of

12:12

them she said I allow these things to

12:16

happen as far as him messing around with

12:19

girls and stuff like that and she said

12:21

when I get tired of it he's gonna know

12:24

and Cassie you got to a point where it's

12:28

like you talking to daughter and I'm

12:31

giving her advice but Cassie was so

12:34

scared that the advice that you would

12:36

give her she would go back and tell him

12:40

and that would make you not want to talk

12:43

to her or give her advice or tell her

12:45

what she should do because she would go

12:48

back and tell him maybe when she got

12:51

high and they was alone next thing you

12:53

know he would call you over the speaker

12:56

and tell you to yo come to my room come

12:57

to my room why you talking to my girl

12:59

why you talking to my girl so a lot of

13:03

people say why did you stay and I and I

13:05

tell people you

13:07

know me myself I was also manipulated

13:12

you know he would also apologize to me

13:14

like yo I don't know what's wrong with

13:16

me yo that's not gonna happen again you

13:19

know what I'm saying I'mma do better you

13:21

know you would see everything going all

13:24

right for the next couple of weeks for

13:25

the next month or two and then all of a

13:27

sudden you would see him blow up again

13:30

over something maybe she didn't want to

13:32

go out maybe she didn't want to do

13:34

something and he would totally lose it

13:36

and it's been times that we even had

13:38

conversations like yo why what's wrong

13:41

and he'll get to the point where he

13:44

would act like he was mad at you about

13:46

it so you would stop conversating about

13:48

it you know he had ways to tell you okay

13:50

enough is enough don't get in my

13:52

business and it made me feel like a

13:56

helpless person but at the same time

13:59

if I stay I felt like I could help but

14:03

if I leave who's G to help her it was it

14:06

was plenty of people there why did she

14:08

say my name because everybody else would

14:11

turn a blind eye to it there is a

14:13

suggestion one of the reasons did I st

14:16

right there's a suggestion Roger that he

14:18

would keep tapes of celebrities in his

14:22

homes when they were taking drugs or

14:25

having sex whatever it may be uh to be

14:27

able to use against them later did you

14:29

ever see any evidence of

14:31

that no not at that time in 2012 I never

14:34

seen no evidence he did keep a video bag

14:37

with him or his assistant kept a video

14:40

bag with him and uh from the things

14:43

that's been going on now and the things

14:45

that's been revealed I would say

14:47

allegedly that that video bag was of the

14:50

things that they did together but he he

14:53

always had a video bag with him at that

14:55

time it was one of the little cam cords

14:58

and he always kept like the video tapes

15:00

and the cassette tapes there with him

15:02

there have also been allegations

15:04

involving him and other men in terms of

15:08

abuse uh and so on what do you know

15:10

about

15:12

that I don't know nothing about that

15:14

I've you know I've never been in there

15:16

you know when they would do those type

15:18

of things we would have the day off he

15:21

might go to the hotel and he'd be like

15:24

yo I'mma stay in the hotel for the

15:25

weekend y'all off for the weekend and

15:27

and kind of rush you out but me being

15:29

the person that I am it's been times

15:32

that I would stand by the elevator or I

15:35

would go downstairs and say why is this

15:37

guy rushing me out why is this guy

15:39

rushing and I would see different men

15:41

I've never seen what they did but I've

15:44

actually stood there while they knocked

15:46

on the hotel room door and went inside

15:49

what went on behind there I can't tell

15:51

you when did you last talk to

15:55

Diddy uh I talked to Diddy uh when this

15:58

first happened the day before Cassie

16:00

dropped the lawsuit I spoke to him and

16:04

what was that conversation

16:06

like that conversation was about my son

16:09

who's uh in trouble in Africa and I

16:12

asked him for some help and he said uh I

16:15

don't have it right now I'm going

16:17

through something he said but I may need

16:19

your help and at this particular time I

16:22

didn't know that I was inside of the uh

16:25

lawsuit so when he said he might need my

16:29

help I was working with sarak and daon

16:32

with diio so I thought because he had

16:35

the lawsuit against them that he was

16:37

getting ready to settle and he needed

16:39

some help pushing the vodka or pushing

16:42

the tequila it wasn't until that next

16:44

morning when I got a whole bunch of DMS

16:47

and they said you know you in Cassie

16:49

lawsuit and I said for what and then I

16:51

read the lawsuit and I said to myself I

16:54

said oh this is what he was telling me

16:56

that he needed some help with he wanted

16:58

me to allegedly he wanted me

17:01

to be one of his Witnesses and say that

17:06

they had a regular relationship this was

17:08

just a normal thing and in sometimes in

17:11

some days they did they had a great

17:13

relationship you know what I'm saying

17:15

but it was this dark side of him that he

17:18

was trying to hide and that he wanted me

17:20

to say didn't exist and I and I can't

17:22

say that it didn't exist if it did exist

17:25

his uh video apologies he say didn't

17:27

even mention Cassie

17:29

by name um if looking at him it feels

17:33

like he may now be aware of the scale of

17:35

the trouble he's in uh not least to his

17:38

reputation I think everyone who watched

17:40

that video was completely shocked um do

17:44

you think this is the beginning of the

17:45

end of

17:48

him ah I it's so hard to count him out

17:53

and it's so hard to say it's the end

17:55

when people are so

17:57

forgiving you know what I'm saying um I

18:00

think from the apology you can

18:03

tell that I feel from the apology just

18:07

like I voiced yesterday that it was a

18:10

self-centered apology I didn't see no

18:13

tears you know what I'm saying I didn't

18:15

see I just seen something

18:17

that people would feel that had to be

18:21

done and I think that's what I I didn't

18:24

feel the remorse you know I'm not one to

18:26

say whether he was or whether he wasn't

18:29

but saying that you went to get help

18:31

where's the proof that you went to get

18:33

help why you didn't say his name why you

18:36

didn't say her name at this particular

18:38

time and then I found it funny that this

18:40

was

18:41

2016 so in my mind I felt like it was

18:44

the beginning of an end because I do

18:46

really feel like other people are going

18:48

to come forward because if the incident

18:51

that I'm telling you about was

18:53

2012 and then this incident was

18:56

2016 that means between 2012 and 2016

19:00

that this woman still went through these

19:02

beatings all the way up I guess until

19:05

she left in

19:06

2018 so I feel like there's going to be

19:10

other people that come forward well also

19:12

you have also told me that you saw him

19:15

do similar beatings with Kim Porter who

19:18

sadly died obviously in her 40s was the

19:21

mother of his three children um but that

19:23

in itself is indicative of a pattern of

19:26

physical violence towards women

19:29

yes yes very much so Roger Bond it's

19:33

been fascinating to talk to you thank

19:34

you very much indeed I really appreciate

19:36

it I appreciate you thank you very much

19:40

and I hope that we get to the bottom of

19:41

this and I hope that every woman out

19:44

there sees this steps forward for help

19:48

and that's all I can say p Yeah final

19:51

question do you think he belongs in

19:54

prison no I don't think he belongs in

19:56

prison I think he needs help

19:59

I think I think Rehabilitation is a

20:01

start but I think admitting that you

20:04

need help and stop covering it up saying

20:07

that this was a a a the only incident

20:11

you got to be real with yourself and say

20:13

this is a padding of what I've been

20:15

doing all my life and now I need help

20:18

roer thank you very

20:20

much thank you well let me bring in my

20:23

panel now for their reaction to that

20:25

extraordinary interview DJ and media

20:27

Mogul DJ Vlad and the fame attorney

20:29

Gloria or Gloria um I was thinking of

20:31

you as I was listening to that testimony

20:34

there from Roger bonds who obviously

20:36

knows did you very well he was his head

20:38

of security for nine years um what did

20:41

you make of

20:44

it well I I think it would be important

20:48

testimony if as and when uh uh Mr comes

20:54

is actually charged with any crimes and

20:59

uh I think he would be uh a powerful

21:03

witness I mean he he gave evidence there

21:06

of personally witnessing uh Diddy

21:08

attacking Cassie which we knew about his

21:11

allegation but also he revealed pretty

21:14

alarming uh stuff that he witnessed of

21:16

him attacking uh Kim Porter who is no

21:20

longer here um but that I think again

21:23

will shock people in the context of that

21:26

video well let's put this way I do

21:30

represent uh some

21:32

victims uh or alleged victims of Mr

21:35

Colmes and uh what he testified to in

21:40

terms of violence against women uh I it

21:46

doesn't surprise me that he said it and

21:49

Gloria when you watch a video like that

21:51

as a as a lawyer who's been involved in

21:53

many of those cases it's a pretty open

21:55

and shut case isn't it that this man is

21:58

a an abuser of women I it was it was so

22:01

graphic so shocking so Brazen given it

22:04

was taking place in a hotel

22:08

Corridor well it may go beyond that

22:11

Piers uh the LA County district attorney

22:14

has said that this incident which

22:16

occurred in 2016 talking about the

22:19

incident on the video uh it's too late

22:24

it's statute of limitations the time

22:26

period set by law to criminally

22:29

prosecute that in LA county which is

22:32

where it occurred it's too late however

22:35

we know that uh there are federal

22:39

investigators Homeland Security that

22:42

rided based on a search warrant uh both

22:45

of his homes in Miami and in Los Angeles

22:49

and retrieved electronic material among

22:53

other material for example phones

22:56

laptops other electronic

22:59

equipment uh those uh th those items may

23:04

contain videos uh that your guest

23:08

alluded to we don't know but uh the fact

23:12

that uh there was at least probable

23:14

cause to search both of his homes in a

23:18

highly publicized raid leads me to

23:21

believe that it's very possible that

23:24

charges will be filed in the future uh

23:28

by the Department of Justice against Mr

23:30

comes now what kind of charges would

23:32

they be well we know that from the R

23:35

Kelly case peers that Homeland Security

23:38

was also involved in that and that

23:41

involves sex trafficking and also there

23:44

are possible allegations of Rico which

23:48

is uh a federal act that's the

23:52

racketeering influence corrupt

23:54

organizations Act was his business

23:57

Enterprise used in a way to uh

24:02

facilitate crimes whether it's drugs

24:05

whether it's sex trafficking uh other

24:08

crimes we don't know um so there's also

24:12

the man act uh which is transporting a

24:15

woman from one state to another state

24:17

for commercial sex uh purposes you know

24:21

there's all kinds of possibility of

24:23

course it all depends on the facts that

24:26

the government is able to prove and in

24:29

the prosecutor's estimation prove Beyond

24:32

A Reasonable Doubt so right now he's

24:34

Presumed Innocent unless and until he is

24:37

proven guilty in a court of law and

24:40

we'll see one is there going to be an

24:42

indictment uh two uh if there is an

24:46

indictment what are the charges and

24:49

we'll see what his defenses are Gloria

24:51

thank you very much D for joining me I

24:53

know you have to have to dash so I

24:54

appreciate you taking the time thank you

24:55

very much I want to bring in um DJ thank

24:59

good to see you glor DJ Vlad um what was

25:02

your feeling when you watched that video

25:04

first of

25:07

all um I mean look when I was on the

25:09

show last time you know I had talked

25:12

about an interview well a conversation I

25:13

had with Roger Bond who I helped bring

25:15

on the show today uh where he talked

25:17

about that basically there was abuse

25:21

from both sides but when I saw that

25:23

video I mean it's just inexcusable it

25:25

showed a one-way attack it showed a

25:27

defenseless Cassie showed him chasing

25:30

her beating her kicking her throwing

25:32

bottles at

25:34

her I I mean that's not something you

25:36

could talk your way out of it it was

25:39

just a horrific video and he'd obviously

25:41

made all these sort of furious denials

25:43

that he was guilty of any of the stuff

25:45

that she had accused him of and now when

25:47

we see that video it's quite clear that

25:49

his denials in relation to anything to

25:51

do with abusing her and committing

25:53

violence against her were clearly

25:55

complete nonsense

26:00

yeah I mean he put out the statement

26:01

saying that all this was a money grab

26:03

and a Shakedown and so forth and I'm

26:05

sure some of these lawsuits probably are

26:07

that because there's usually a pylon

26:09

that happens but in the Cassie case it

26:11

looks pretty pretty accurate and the

26:13

whole thing about him buying uh the tape

26:16

for $50,000 and talking about the actual

26:18

incident was actually in the lawsuit so

26:21

the pieces are now fitting

26:23

together you know a lot of people who

26:24

doubted

26:25

Cassie I'm sorry yes sorry people who

26:28

doubted Cassie are now are now

26:30

apologizing yeah I mean a lot of

26:32

high-profile people came out defending

26:34

him casting aspersions over the claims

26:37

that she'd made but I think I would

26:39

imagine there's a lot of regret from

26:40

people that that did that and believ did

26:45

he well yeah I mean because at the time

26:49

there was the actual raids but there was

26:51

no indictments I mean there was no

26:52

charges I mean uh so you don't really

26:55

know um you know lawsuits just because

26:58

someone files a lawsuit doesn't NE

26:59

necessarily mean that any any of that

27:01

actually happened so a lot of people

27:04

were skeptical and look uh puffy is an

27:06

icon in this industry uh he's been

27:08

around for decades he's helped break

27:11

tons and tons of artists he's done a lot

27:13

of you know incredible things uh but the

27:17

video ultimately speaks for itself the

27:20

video is the video and you saw him being

27:22

the 100% aggressor she was trying to get

27:25

away from the situation and he was just

27:27

just beating her over over and over

27:28

again um yeah so anyone who really

27:30

defended Diddy up to this point I don't

27:32

think there's any defense at all and the

27:34

video apology uh as Roger bonds rightly

27:37

observed contain no personal apology to

27:40

Cassie for what he'd

27:44

done yeah I mean I listened to the

27:46

apology again this

27:48

morning look I mean in terms of

27:51

apologies when you put it out there some

27:53

people are going to accept it some

27:54

people are not going to accept it um you

27:56

know if you already don't like a person

27:58

you're going to find fault in the

28:00

apology um an apology is an apology he

28:02

put it out there because he felt that it

28:04

was the best thing to do at the time but

28:07

ultimately when it comes to his future

28:10

and when it comes to his actual criminal

28:11

charges if there are any apologies

28:14

really don't matter at this point Roger

28:16

bonds was also um pretty shocking really

28:19

in the way he uh revealed information

28:22

about watching did he attacking Kim

28:25

Porter obviously his former partner the

28:27

mother of his three children um which

28:30

certainly creates a a sense of a pattern

28:32

of behavior and that is just what he

28:35

witnessed which is many years

28:39

ago yeah I mean I've interviewed uh

28:42

people like Michael ji white who had

28:44

hung out with Kim Porter before and he

28:46

would tell me about the arguments that

28:48

Diddy would have um I think Diddy was in

28:51

a situation where he wanted to keep

28:53

people like him poured around but you

28:56

know he was living a life outside of

28:59

their relationship so so there was a lot

29:01

of conflict there and there was you know

29:03

he never saw any violence but he

29:05

definitely heard arguments over the

29:06

phone and so forth so it's just an ugly

29:08

situation uh all around and it's it's

29:11

just sad um can he survive I've met

29:13

Cassie before seemed like a very nice

29:15

girl I mean this is the argument that

29:18

that people are having right now uh when

29:20

you look at the Chris Brown situation I

29:21

mean it's very similar there's no video

29:23

but there is a a very bad picture of

29:26

Rihanna with her face you know bruised

29:28

up and her eyes closed and look uh Chris

29:30

Brown is still a mega Star right now uh

29:33

I mean like I said there's no video but

29:35

Chris Brown's career definitely took a

29:37

hit but it continued to flourish after

29:40

the fact uh R Kelly there was the the

29:42

tape uh with the underage girl which

29:44

ultimately in the new trial you found

29:46

out that the girl really was underage R

29:48

Kelly continued to thrive as a singer

29:50

you know had some of his biggest hits

29:52

after that tape came out people have a

29:53

short memory uh so it's really hard to

29:55

say it's really up to him and what Hees

29:58

does uh at this point forward whether he

29:59

continues to put out uh projects or not

30:01

it's really it's really very hard to say

30:03

everyone's going to say that he's

30:04

canceled and so forth but my my take is

30:06

that unless you are put in jail or

30:09

you're dead you're not really canceling

30:12

right 50 Cent has been very scathing

30:15

about him they've had a long-going feud

30:18

obviously what do you make of

30:20

that

30:21

yeah uh 50 cents never really liked uh

30:24

you know 50 Cent never really liked

30:26

Diddy uh I interviewed Tony yo who's

30:27

part of unit his right-and man um and

30:29

even when 50 was going for a record

30:31

label you know for a record deal he said

30:34

listen I don't like this guy but let's

30:35

just go ahead and meet with him and see

30:37

what he says so there's always been kind

30:38

of a dislike from 50 against Diddy uh so

30:40

this is just kind of power for the

30:41

course for 50 there's another few that's

30:44

been getting everyone going the the

30:46

Drake and Kendrick Lamar few for those

30:48

who've not been following this too

30:50

closely can you summarize what it's

30:52

really about and who's

30:55

winning well the feud is pretty much

30:58

over uh I mean there's really been kind

31:00

of a long-standing competition between

31:01

the two of them uh they did a couple of

31:03

songs together very early in their

31:05

careers but overall there's been kind of

31:07

what we call sneak dissing back and

31:08

forth uh I remember when I interviewed

31:10

Marcel wiy uh Dre came on his show uh

31:14

and really dissed Kendrick really badly

31:17

and then had them pull the footage after

31:19

the fact and he threatened to actually

31:21

not host the spbs if they didn't pull it

31:23

so there was some subliminal shots for

31:26

years and years and years but then when

31:28

uh the song with Metro boomman uh future

31:31

and Kendrick came out like that that's

31:33

when Kendrick really kind of fired off

31:34

at Drake and um basically there was a

31:37

back and forth that kept going but for

31:40

all intents and purposes when you talk

31:41

to 99% of the people they all say that

31:43

Kendrick won I think uh not like us when

31:45

that record dropped I pretty much put

31:47

the the nail in the coffin uh Drake came

31:49

out with the Heart part six which was

31:52

somewhat of a I don't know trying to

31:55

justify certain things but at this point

31:57

I think the battle's over and I think

31:59

that once uh Drake's bodyguard got shot

32:02

in front of his house when you actually

32:04

see real violence and it's really at his

32:06

doorstep that's when I think Drake

32:08

really kind of looked at the whole

32:09

situation and said no I think I'm done

32:12

before I let you go there was a a a New

32:14

York Times bestseller Morgan Jenkins who

32:18

took grave exception to your commentary

32:21

on this tweeting you are white this is a

32:23

black folk Affair uh Str is a rather

32:27

racist comment actually DJ V what was

32:30

your

32:33

response well um I put a comment that

32:35

said that uh Kendrick Lamar The Mix on

32:39

his song not like us uh took away uh

32:42

from the impact of it uh me being a DJ

32:44

for 20 plus years and also uh listening

32:47

to audio and video every single day I

32:49

felt that I was qualified to make that

32:50

statement uh her response was that you

32:52

are white uh this a black folk Affair uh

32:54

I took offense to it I don't agree with

32:56

that comment but then during the back

32:57

and fourth uh I started to uh tag

33:00

Princeton because she was a Princeton uh

33:02

professor and I felt I was actually

33:03

wrong for that and I publicly apologized

33:05

uh it was a back and forth it was on

33:07

Twitter it should have just stayed on

33:08

Twitter so like I said I apologized for

33:11

uh essentially tagging her job uh and so

33:14

forth which I was wrong for I was wrong

33:15

for that I hean very magnanimous of you

33:17

given what she'd said but I mean her

33:18

General principle that white people

33:20

shouldn't be allowed to voice opinions

33:22

about beef in the hip-hop world seems a

33:25

bit ridiculous to me

33:28

like I said I don't agree with it I

33:29

don't agree with her response and I

33:31

still stand on that but you know at the

33:33

end of the day my response was also uh

33:35

inappropriate so I apologize for that

33:38

you're a bigger man than me DJ vad uh

33:40

but great to have you back on sensor

33:42

thank you very

33:44

much well thank you for having me
