Grammy award -winning rapper Scott Mescody – It is known for his best name, Kid Cody – They took the position of witnesses today, as the prosecutors continued to draw their photos of the violent and chaotic scientist Didi. Here is what a singer “Seeking Happiness” told the jurors, and what we heard from the other witnesses today, as the trial of sex trafficking reached the end of the second week:
- Kid Cody, who was briefly historian his girlfriend, Kassi, was accused of storming his house in Hollywood Hills in 2011, then informed jury about the fire in Porsche in 2012 after throwing a cocktail Molotov at home. Kassi had previously witnessed that Didi, in jealous anger, threatened to detonate the Kid Cody.
- The two men met at the Los Angeles Hotel after the fire. Remember Kid Cody Didi staring at a window with his hands behind his back like “Marvel Supervillain”. Didi seemed unaware of fire – but after years, he gave a Kodi child a general apology to the past, as Kid Cody witnessed. Didi Legal team says it has not participated in any deliberate attack.
- George KaplanThe previous Deddy described help, a quarrel between rapper and Cassie on a private plane in 2015. Kaplan witnessed that he heard the glass shattered and saw Didi standing over Cassi with whiskey glass. Kassi said, “Isn’t he seen this?” Kaplan said that he once bought cosmetic products for covering on bruises on the face of Cassi.
- Mila MoralesWork makeup artist with Cassi (as well Rihanna and Jennifer LopezHe witnessed the effects of the alleged Cassi hit Didi after a party that he had previously hosted prince. Morales said that she had not seen any violence, but she heard the screaming and later saw Cassi with a swollen eye, the broken lips and a knot on her head.
- Friedrich ZimoreThe General Manager of the L’ermitage Beverly Hills Hotel, the jurors, told the room that the room would require deep cleaning after one of the stays. The hotel’s notes on the rapper file said that he left behind “excessive amounts” of oil wax and candlestick. (Didi Legal team chose not to interrogate Zmmour.)
also: In a 37 -second video It was published to X. This afternoon, Kid Cody addressed the camera directly and thanked his fans for “All Love and Support” in the period before his testimony. “This is an exhausting situation,” added. “I am happy because it is behind me.”
The scene from the inside
Written by Adam Reese, Chloe Milas and Catherine Coreski
Kid Cody was very attractive to the main day today. The famous rapper, who was wearing a black leather jacket over a white T -shirt, drew a crowd of spectators in the rain outside the court. He knew himself on the platform as a “actor and musician”, which is a reference to his roles in films such as “Do not look” and “x.” In general, it hit a confident tone and often occurs moving.
Didi, who was wearing a creamy shirt over the pants of khaki, sat on his chair, arms and legs across parts of Kid Cody’s certificate. He seemed to listen closely, and take quietly at the back without showing many feelings.
Mourin KumiTell one of the prosecutors warmly Judge Aaron Supramian I was shocked by the defense lawyer Brian Steel Kid Cody asked about his sexual activity with Cassi, and called on the question about the borders and “outrageous”. Subramanian agreed, saying, “The line was clear and via.” It holds steel and the ruling that the exchange must collide with the record.
In other newsCorrespondents were dealt with in the exhibition of some rare languages this morning, as the lawyers discussed whether Kid Kody could bear witness to the behavioral changes of his dog after storming 2011 at his home.
Steel Subramanian told the prosecutors that the rapper would testify that his pet was shocking. Emily JohnsonThe Prosecutor argued that comments about the dog were related to storming.
“He will not testify to what the dog thought,” Sopramianian said. (SUBRAMANAIAN is ultimately the Kid Cudi can testify to the dog, but only in general phrases. Johnson explained that the animal is “no longer with us.”)
Analysis: Why do the story of the Molotov cocktail interests
Written by Danny Civalos
Kid Cody witnessed today that in 2012, his dog observer contacted him that his car was burning. He believed that someone seemed to have cut the top of Porsche, and “this is where a Molotov cocktail was placed, destroying the car.
This is an important proof of the claim because it is evidence of the burning of the mayor, and it is one of the “original” blackmail crimes listed in the Racketeering System (RICO). However, Didi is charged with blackmail plotIt is easier for the government to prove it.
To condemn one of the defendants with the conspiracy of extortion, the government must only prove that the defendant agreed with others to conduct the affairs of the institution through a pattern of extortion (those crimes issued). The government does not need to prove a conspiracy to commit these defined actions, such as burning the KID cudi.
In fact, the government should only prove that two extortion was, or if it was supposed to be, committed as part of the plot. The government does not have to prove that the defendant committed any of these original crimes (such as intentional burning). The government does not need to prove that Didi himself agreed to commit any of the actions assigned (such as intentional burning).
While the government must prove that Didi has somehow participated in the general goal of conspiracy, it does not need to prove that the hip -hop hedgehog threw a cocktail Molotov in Porsche, or even participated in the deliberate burning itself.
