Description

CBS News Correspondent and CBS Weekend anchor Jericka Duncan was recently given the task to cover the the trial of Sean "Diddy" Combs. Her assignment puts her at the courthouse and in the courtroom every day of the trial so she has a front row seat to all of the action happening in and outside of the courtroom. 

This week, Jericka shares a bit of what it's like covering the trial before bringing on her guest, Judie Saunders. Judie leads sexual abuse and human trafficking department of the law firm, Ask LLP. She has more than twenty years of experience litigating cases involving sexual abuse, sexual harassment, and discrimination. Judie has also represented survivors in cases against USA gymnastics, local and state governments, and clergy abuse survivors.

Their conversation delves into the ongoing trial of Sean Combs, exploring the complexities of the case, the strategies of both the prosecution and defense, and the emotional dynamics at play. Saunders provides insights into the implications of witness testimony, the nuances of consent and coercion, and the impact of public perception on the trial's proceedings. The discussion highlights the serious nature of the allegations and the challenges faced by both sides in presenting their cases effectively.
