It's Friday and y' all know what that means. It is time for another episode of the Flow show no Filter. Having a little technical difficulties with my Facebook account. I don't know quite what it is. I'm trying to get the Facebook people loaded. But we got to talk about this. Diddy witnesses missing. Also, the jury will be selected today. So we gotta go over that. Who's selected, what's going on, why the everything involved. This is just. This is just a crazy Friday lot to talk about. I think I fixed. Okay, I fixed Facebook, y' all. You know, I. I hate to shut leave our Facebook people out of the loop, but I think I got them together. So, you know, like I said, I ain't gonna waste no time. So much to talk about. Good morning to the breakfast crew. Seat Tuck. Nadrima, Amy, Brandon, I see you in the comments. Appreciate. Everybody, please. Like it, like it, like it. When you come in, share it, share, share. Yari Kingdom, Angie all everybody, today, let's get into the jury because today the most important thing going on right now is the jury selection. And so I want to get into that immediately because that's important. Like I said, the most important part of any case, the most crucial part is the jury selection. A lot of times a jury selection can make or break a trial, acquittal or guilty verdict just based on the demographics of people, experiences and everything that they've gone through. So, you know, this is the most important part and we need to break it the down with your boy Flo every day at 7:30am you can join us live or catch us on Apple and Spotify, Facebook or wherever you listen to your podcast. So this actually comes from a publication called Arab News. Sean Diddy title is Sean Diddy Combs. Jury to be seated in Hip Hop mogul sex trafficking trial. Now, y' all know it's been all kind of drama. Questionnaires, celebrity names being listed. What do we have? Michael B. Jordan. Kanye West. So many names. Mike Myers Young Miami. You get where I'm going. So this jury selection has been controversial and very dramatic. Well, let's break down what's going on. And. And today we will have the jury pool. And then Monday we start the official. The official trial opening arguments. And one of the witnesses are supposed to be on the stand for damn near two days. And I wonder who that is. We're going to talk about that later, too. So the article reads, A jury of 12 New Yorkers is due to be chosen on Friday, which today in the racketeering case with Sean Diddy Combs, who could face anywhere from 15 years to life in prison if convicted. The rapper, who has pleaded not guilty to one count of racketeering, conspiracy to two counts of sex trafficking and two counts of transportation for prostitution. All of these are felonies. Of course. The rapper has been there on pins and needles. Y' all know he been nervous. He been asking for bathroom breaks, looking nervous, weight loss. This is Diddy actually behind me. If you can see me. For those that are viewing, this is not Malcolm X behind me. This is Diddy. Uh, they say he's going for the respect your elders look for the jury. We'll see if it works. Now, over three days this week, the judge has been overseeing the case, questioning nearly a hundred prospective jurors on subjects including what they had heard about Combs case and any experiences that they've had, especially when it comes to sexual assault. So these potential jurors have been asked everything under the sun. We are they all in their business. They want to know who you, what you feel about multiple partners. They want to know have you had any run ins with the law? What do you think about the law? Do you know Sean Diddy Combs? Do you know Michael B. Jordan? Do you watch true crime documentaries? Where do you get your news from? Do you get it from legacy mainstream media or do you get it from guys like me, podcasters, youtubers, etc. All of these are potential valid questions when you're talking about the jury for the trial of the century. Thank you. Not dreaming for the super sticker. I really appreciate it. I will definitely put that $99 to good use. Anybody else that want to give, please? I won't. I won't be mad if you give me a super sticker. But let's continue with input from the defense lawyers and prosecutors. The judge Aram Aaron Subramanian and Manhattan dismissed the jurors he deemed unfit to serve and settled on 45 candidates qualified to serve fairly and impartially. Now, today, lawyers for each side will take turns striking down candidates until A panel of 12 jurors and six alternates is chosen. This is like a real time chess match. And the difference between Checkmate and being in Checkmate is the difference between possibly serving life in prison for Mohawk Diddy or. Or walking out that courtroom a free man. Oh, okay. So Nadrema coming Back to back with another super sticker. 499. Let's go now. Dream. I appreciate it. Good morning. Happy Friday. Combs, a Harlem native. He's from New York. Y' all know that. Who founded the pioneer record label Bad boy Records and discovered iconic rappers like Biggie Smalls has been locked up since September. The charges mark a stunning downfall of the titan of the music industry from the city of New York. Now let's get back to the prosecution. Prosecution with Manhattan office say that for two decades Combs used his business empire to lure woman into orbit with promises of romantic relationships or financial support. Then violently coerced him into taking parts into days long drug and fueled infested sexual performances that we have known to be called freak offs. I tell you, I never heard of freak offs until now. I told you when I would. I remember we used to be saying get your freak on. Like the Missy song get your freak on. Diddy done turned it into freak off. And it should have been off, but that's a whole nother story. In court papers, prosecutors allege Combs kept his victims obedient by drugging and blackmailing them. He is accused of kidnapping. Kidnapping a person at gunpoint and dropping a Molotov cocktail into a car. And hitting and choking and dragging victims in acts of violence dating back to the 1990s. And you wonder why I called Mohawk Diddy. Continue. Combs lawyers have said prosecutors are improperly seeking to criminalize Combs swinger lifestyle. They have signaled they plan to attack the credibility of the alleged victims who will testify by seeking to show they have financial incentives to accuse Combs. They have said the woman gave inconsistent accounts of the alleged assaults to the investigators. Now while y' all with me, make sure y' all liking this. Live as y' all come in through the dough. Like it and share it after we go over what's the hell going on with the jurors. I have someone who could potentially be a witness. I have some clips from that person. And also that person has agreed to do an interview with yours truly. Float the flow, show no filter. And he is somebody who was on Diddy's record label. He was a rapper. He was around to see a lot of this violence firsthand. And so I'm gonna play some clips from him and give you an idea of what we might be hearing on the witness stand. So stay with me as we break down this juror. Because after jury, because after we do this, I got a surprise for y' all coming up. So the judge has said the Trial will last around eight weeks with alternate jurors serving as backups in case other jurors are unable to finish the job. The trial is expected to feature testimony from three, possibly four. Because you know they can't find one of the victims. Victim number three has just vanished off the face of the earth. And if that ain't crazy enough, they victim number three, her lawyer has also vanished off the face of the earth. We don't know where they at, so we know we got three victims for sure. Combs has more than 50 lawsuits going on and all kind of crap. So the, the way the jury is going to be broken down. So now they got 45, right. So this is what they're going to be doing today. And make sure you follow me on all my social media accounts, Flo Daddy Flow because I will be updating later on today. Once they break, get all the jurors lined up and know we know who they are or whatever. So what they do is they take the 45 jurors and they go down one by one. And then basically the defense and the prosecution will take turns in removing certain jurors that they don't want on there for whatever reason. Now there's a certain amount they can remove just because they don't have to give any reasons and they don't need judges approval. But that is a limited amount of number which goes for the prosecution and the defense. Once they use up their, their strikes where they could just say hey, remove that one and they're gone. Then it comes down to a point where they have to say why they want them removed and then it's up to the judge from there. And after all of that is done, we will be, we will have 12 jurors and six alternates. So that's the breakdown of what's going on with the jury. And we'll know that, we'll know that today. But, but, but now with Monday coming up, I thought today would be the perfect day to to not only announce a special interview I have coming up from a bad boy artist, someone who knows Diddy quite well and has been there to see a lot of the crazy that went on. And one of the craziest things that surrounding Diddy in this trial is Kim Porter. We all know Kim Porter. If you don't know she is the mother of Diddy's children. If a lot of people know the twin girls that he has, it's her mother. She was about to, she had wrote a tell all book that she was about to put out and she mysteriously passed away with pneumonia. But before we. Even before you even think about what happened with her and the mysterious pneumonia, there were incidents that happened to her. There were incidents that happened to her where it just shows the violent, the violence, and the. In the links Diddy would go through to. To control his victims or his. His wives or what, I mean, girlfriends, what. Whatever you want to title them. And so these are the type of things we may hear on the. On the witness stand. This is. Without further ado, this is Mark Curry. Mark Curry, as you all know, if you follow me on the social media pages, he's been following me for a while. He was one of the first whistleblowers. He is going to be doing an interview for us. He's going to talk about his new book. And he has, like, I think, two books detailing a lot of this that I'm about to tell y' all today and that we're gonna go over. So I thought a nice prelude going into Monday, which we're about to hear witnesses and everything, is to get a little mock witness, which is a witness, and we're gonna listen to see some of the crazy stuff he has to say about what he saw at his time around Diddy. So, Mark Curry, can you tell us a little bit about Kim Porter and some of the things you may have seen?
