About this episode
Welcome back to our new, weekly episodes of The Trial of Diddy. The show is hosted by DailyMail.com’s West Coast News Editor Marjorie Hernandez and Manhattan-based Kayla Brantley, reporter-at-large and TV correspondent at Daily Mail.
Each week Kayla and Marjorie will be exploring each and every new development in this story, bringing in expert guests and looking at what may - or may not - be coming next for Diddy.
This week we look at new allegations of “freak off” video evidence and Diddy’s 55th birthday spent in jail. We’re also featuring an exclusive interview with Deon Best, AKA D1. Best is a former member of the Crip set based in LA’s Mid-Wilshire area known as the Mansfield Crips.
Best was one of the people Puff called in the late 1990s when he would come to LA and need “protection” due to his on-going beef with Suge and the Bloods. Best also managed a handful of hip-hop artists and signed a few to Bad Boy before he ended up going to prison.
Best has now been out of the gang life for many years and leads a football league for kids in LA. He talks to Marjorie and Kayla about his friendship with Biggie and his potential lawsuit against Diddy’s mother, Janice Combs.
