CNN Destroys Video of Diddy Beating Cassie, Diddy’s Lawyers Claim

Bombshell within the Diddy prosecution … CNN destroyed the one identified copy of the 2016 video through which Diddy is seen beating Cassie within the hallway of an L.A. lodge … this based on new court docket paperwork.

Diddy’s protection group and prosecutors filed a joint letter about proof within the case. In line with the protection … CNN bought the video exhibiting Diddy attacking Cassie in the hallway of the InterContinental Lodge in L.A. The letter claims “CNN bought the one identified copy of the Lodge’s surveillance footage, uploaded that footage right into a free enhancing software program, altered the video after which destroyed the unique footage, though it knew about and repeatedly reported in regards to the federal investigation.”

The protection claims CNN altered and edited the footage by “overlaying the time stamp after which altering the video sequence. It additionally contains dashing up the video to make it falsely seem that the actions within the video are happening sooner than they’re. In consequence, the CNN movies don’t pretty and precisely depict the occasions in query.”

The InterContinental Lodge has closed down in that location and we’re informed no different video of the incident exists.

The protection makes it clear … they are going to be submitting a movement to exclude the video from Diddy’s upcoming trial. Diddy isn’t being prosecuted for the beating — that is a state matter and the statute of limitations has run — however prosecutors wish to use it to point out Diddy’s alleged violent propensities.

The fact is that this … courts nearly by no means admit video proof the place the video is edited — judges insist on the uncooked footage, so there’s a particularly good likelihood this video won’t ever be performed to a jury.
