Sean “Diddy” Combs accused of gang rape of teen girl in new lawsuit

[Anonymous]

It’s being reported that they are now showing images to the jurors only (not the galley) and a female juror gasped out loud and put her hand on her chest and another male jurors eyes got wide and he quickly looked away.

I am honestly confused why people are feeling so sorry for her. I would've walked away. But the money and what she was getting in return were obviously enough to convince her to stay in the relationship. I'm sorry, I don't see women as children and so I see her as perfectly capable of saying no.

I don't think you are the only one who thinks this. I think you are unempathetic and lack an understanding of human psychology and emotional and physical abuse cycles and how all that impacts a person, which is definitely nice for you.

It's fair to believe in personal responsibility, but it's also important to recognize how abuse and manipulation work, especially when power, control, and emotional dependence are involved. Cassie may have been an adult legally, but being young and in a relationship with someone older, richer, and more powerful can make it incredibly difficult to just 'walk away.' Abuse isn't always obvious from the start, and people often stay in harmful situations because they're scared, isolated, or groomed over time. Acknowledging that doesn't mean we see women as children; it means we understand the complexities of trauma and coercion.

Depends on the source, the post said they didn’t really react visibly.

I hear you and I agree with some aspects of what you're saying. But it's also important to call out some unpleasant truths about situations like these, which is the enormous benefit that she was getting (money, external respect and status, power) or she would've left. She would not have entered into this relationship with the local garbage collector. She sought out the relationship to derive benefits from it. I think as women we have to recognize that we have some sick needs for the power and status that we get from men. There are so many examples like this (like Bill belchick and his 24-year-old). Let's stop making excuses for women who make these choices.

No, you're not only one who thinks that she could have walked away at any time.

Ugh! I haven’t posted in this thread or followed it, but I read an article yesterday and wanted to vomit. I thought about those poor jurors. Glad it’s not me. I couldn’t believe what I read!

This quote.

“I’m quite sure somebody’s going to talk to those jurors and convince one or two of them — that’s all you need, is one,” he told host Chris Cuomo. “So, at the end of the day, it’s going to be a real exciting situation, but I think he’s going to be all right.”

Now I understand why he is going to trial.

The other jurors could report anyone who “holds out” or is unreasonable to the judge. Though, not sure the outcome would change. Gross.

The first rule of freak-offs is you don’t talk about freak-offs.

Women stay all the time in relationships with no money, status, or power being derived because they are being abused and manipulated. Heck, men do too sometimes! This is all on a grander scale because of the money and power and fame. But these dynamics are really unfortunately very common and exist in life.

It would be ideal if every human had the self-awareness and strength and resources and words to identify when they were in a messed up situation and get themselves out of it immediately. Turns out everyone is not equipped that way.

Bro, if that's true then why didn't you flex your muscles and status, Suge? You're doing 28 years behind bars! Why hasn't Trump pardoned your ass, hmm? Also, Suge fought his charges for 3 years before finally accepting a plea deal right before trial to save himself from life behind bars.

Exactly! STFU Suge Knight, your words have zero credibility.

No one in this sick industry has any right to say a word. They participated in a disgusting coverup.

They need to stop using the term "freak off" to describe what Diddy to did to Cassie, makes it sound like some wild playboy mansion party when it was rape, torture, assault and abuse. Agreed.

I get where you're coming from, and you're right that status and money can play a big role in why people enter certain relationships. But that doesn’t mean abuse didn’t happen or that she deserved it. People can want benefits and still be taken advantage of or hurt.

It's not about making excuses—it’s about understanding that these situations are complicated. And saying women have “sick needs” for power is unfair. A lot of this is shaped by a society that rewards women for being close to powerful men.
