Deputy: In the matter of USA v. Combs, how do you find the defendant, Sean Combs, for count one, racketeering conspiracy?

 

Juror 5: Not guilty. 

 

There’s a small gasp from Diddy’s two rows of friends and family. 

 

Deputy: As for sex trafficking of Casandra Ventura, how do you find the defendant?

Juror 5: Not guilty.

 

Someone from the same section of the gallery says “yeah!!” It was quiet but in the tension of the courtroom it is clear that everyone heard it. His kids have broken into smiles, happily nodding. 

 

Deputy: Transportation for purposes of prostitution related to Casandra Ventura?

 

Juror 5: Guilty.

 

There’s no reaction. 

 

Deputy: As for sex trafficking of Jane, how do you find the defendant?

Juror 5: Not guilty.

 

Teny Geragos tightly grips Sean Combs’s hand across the table as the defense team exchanges positive looks.

 

Deputy: Transportation for purposes of prostitution related to Jane? 

Juror 5: Guilty.

 

As the entire courtroom stands and watches the jury leave, Combs continues to nod and clasp his hands in prayer directed towards the jurors; a silent ‘thank you.’

 

Basically the moment the jury walk out of the room, Marc Agnifilo, Sean Combs's lead defense attorney immediately petitions the Judge.

 

Judge: Are you proposing he just walk outside now?

Agnifilo: Yes…

The Moment Diddy Finds Out He’s “Not Guilty” On Major Charges

She was rushing to the emergency room - her 5-year-old son was in the back. Every minute could mean life or death. He had been having seizures all day. 

But before entering the hospital she stood over her suffering son and took a picture.

What would she caption this one? Maybe she would mention how this was going to be his 13th surgery. Yeah, that would be good. The followers would eat that up.

#93: The Mommy Blogger Killer (Case of Lacey Spears)

Somi doesn’t normally go through her husband’s things, but their house has been so cluttered, she’s going to lose her mind. From the back of their closet, she comes across old VHS tapes and a VHS player that she doesn’t recognize. Home movies, old memories? She pushes the tape in and presses play.

The screen lights up. It’s a bed and two naked bodies. Her husband… and another girl laying next to him. There are words written all over both of their bodies in thick marker, words like ‘Prince’ and ‘King.’

Then Somi sees the blood.

The girl has a long slice down her private area; she’s bleeding, trembling, completely terrified. The male—her husband’s voice—snaps at the girl, “Endure it even if it hurts.” Then he proceeds to SA her. Somi is frozen—but her mind is in overdrive—she can’t shake the feeling that she knows the girl—she can’t place a name but she recognizes the girl’s face.

It was the same one on the missing posters in town.

The girl in the video was the little, 8-year-old girl that had gone missing a year ago.

#368: Wife Found a Missing Girl’s Torture Film On Her Husband’s VHS Camera

3 people are sitting at a table in a diner. Miriam, a middle aged woman sits stiffly, and across from her are two young men. One of them fiddles with a radio; a police scanner. He leans towards Miriam as if they’re sharing a secret across the table.

“Your daughter smoke weed or something?” She gives him a look. Radio man continues, “I mean… she’s just so relaxed. Easy to deal with which is good. I like that. That’s why I want to let her go… for a price.”

He tells Miriam that he will convince his boss to spare her daughter from a torturous death for $2k USD cash. Miriam suppresses a smile; she has to play along or else everything she’s planned will fall apart.

Her daughter Karen had been kidnapped by one of the most dangerous cartels in all of Mexico and Miriam knew that nobody gets taken by that cartel and gets out alive. She also knew that she would not stop until she took every single member out for what they had done to her family.

#369: Mom Hunted Down 10 Cartel Members For Killing Daughter - Real Life “Taken”

A church in South Carolina has gone viral recently--even making national headlines. A young pastor by the name of JP is caught on a recorded sermon saying:

“One day I’m going to preach about getting rich, strong, healthy, and finding a hot wife that loves Jesus!” 

The congregation laughs awkwardly because on his left hand ring finger is a wedding band—he’s already married—but he won’t be for much longer. 

Just a few weeks later, Pastor JP’s wife—14 years younger than him—is found face down, submerged in a marsh, an entire state away. 

Just four days after that, the media reports that Pastor JP was drinking at a bar with a woman thought to be his mistress. 

This is the ongoing investigation into the tragic death of Mica Francis Miller.

#370: Toxic Pastor Humiliates Wife In Sermon, She Leaves Him, Then Found Mysteriously Dead In River

There’s this fascinating little town called ‘Little Japan.’ It’s a gated community with cookie-cutter houses, though they boast beautiful chandeliers and heated floors, and all of them have a matching set of priceless portraits hanging on their walls.

The residents are nine Japanese families, hence the name, and they have their own private chefs, maids, even chauffeurs in black Mercedes. A small movie theater, a massive sauna house, and a grocery store where they never have to pay. The catch? If they ever want to leave the community ‘gates,’ they must ask for permission from the Supreme Leader… The town itself is not even an hour outside of North Korea’s capital.

The families themselves are neither Japanese nor North Korean royalty, nor are they diplomats or even government officials either.

They’re a gang of hijackers. Hijackers who stole a plane and flew it into North Korea—and now the distinguished guests of the Kim regime were to become his secret weapon.

#371: 9 University Students Hijack A Japanese Plane to North Korea

A young man calls the police around 3:30 am to report that he had just been physically assaulted by his ex-girlfriend. Officers are dispatched and the caller greets them with a few red scratches on his face. He had gone over to his ex-girlfriend’s apartment to break up with her—but that’s when she went crazy; scratching his face and twisting his arm. The officers ask the man for her name.

Goo Hara. A K-pop idol from the girl group KARA.

 

When the police begin investigating, the man’s story begins to fall apart. If what he’s saying is true, why is there CCTV footage of Goo Hara on her knees—seemingly begging the young man? Why did he email Dispatch, a Korean tabloid, twice during this so-called ‘one sided assault?’ And what does all of this have to do with Burning Sun?

A couple of months pass, and Goo Hara helps reporters blow the lid off the Burning Sun case.

Not even a year later, she is found dead.

This is part two of Burning Sun.

#372: K-pop Idol Goo Hara Helped Expose the BURNING SUN Sex Scandal In Her Final Days

The police had a strange situation on their hands.

A thief had broken into a multi-million dollar home - to steal a safe.

The safe had 3 items in it.

Jewelry.

Investment documents.

And the home owner’s old phones.

The police were able to quickly determine that the thief did not want the jewelry or the investment documents in the safe. Which means - the thief is going after the home owner’s old phones.

Why would a thief want some old phones? Was there something on there that they didn’t want anyone else to see?

But most puzzling is - who would do this to Goo Hara?

The home belonged to a k-pop idol who had just died just 49 days ago.

What did they want from her safe?

And how does this connect to the Burning Sun case?

#373: Burning Sun’s K-Pop Idols Released From Prison - Now Trying To Make Comeback & Open New Club

This was probably the strangest call the Hollywood police received. 

A foul stench coming from an apartment unit. A dead man is found with his head painted green and red. He didn’t even look human - he looked like he was wearing a mask. 

But in front of him is a tripod set up - with a camera. Someone had filmed his death. In fact, someone had filmed 20 hours of this man losing his mind. His mental collapse. 

20 hours of footage that shows him slowly losing touch with reality and start living fully in his fantasy world. His ultimate fantasy?

Send one of the most famous singers an acid bomb. Because if she’s ugly. Nobody will want her anymore. She will come crawling to him - her biggest fan.

#374: Stalker Fan Sends Acid Bomb To Famous Singer, “Because if she’s ugly, then no one will want her”

“To Catch A Predator” steps:

 1. Hire an adult decoy to lurk on websites advertising themselves as 13 year olds looking for a middle aged companion.
 2. Invite the adult predator to a house that has been wired for audio and video recording.
 3. Have the host of the famous TV show pop out to ask the predator questions and arrest them on the way out.

That is the premise to the show “To Catch A Predator” that has now been cancelled for its moral dilemmas. 

But now influencers are recreating the show themselves on their platforms. Luring in predators, confronting them, and then calling the police. 

That’s what 17 year old Gavon tells the cops was his plan… He met up with a middle aged man on Grindr for the purpose of robbing him because he deserves it. Why else would he talk to a minor?

But for the police to believe his side of the story they have to go through his phone… and that’s where they find a folder titled - “Dark.” 

The password? “Murder.” 

Suddenly a simple robbery case turns into a murder investigation because in it… are videos and photos of 17 year old Gavon Ramsay killing and SAing a 98 year old woman in her own home. Gavon Ramsay is the predator.

#406: 16-Yr-Old Murders 98-Yr-Old Woman To SA Her Corpse For 2 Hours While Recording

He knew this was going to happen sooner or later. The FBI had already stopped by twice to let him know that he was on a criminal’s “kidnap wish list.”

He just didn’t know - that the one being kidnapped wouldn’t be him. It would be his very own son. The heir to the Coors Beer Dynasty.

He felt confident he could deal with this. It’s like a business transaction. He just had to make sure his son had no secrets.

Who knew beer had so many secrets?
