'He's Guilty As Sin': Megyn Kelly, 50 Cent, Rosie O'Donnell and More React to Diddy Verdict
Share this @internewscast.com

During “The Megyn Kelly Show” on SiriusXM, Kelly announced the jury’s decision that found the disgraced music mogul guilty of two counts of transporting individuals for prostitution (referring to his former girlfriends, Cassie Ventura and “Jane”). She mentioned that he was acquitted of three other charges, which included sex trafficking and racketeering, describing it as undeniably a win for Combs. Profanity alert:

“I’m disgusted by this verdict. This is ****ing ridiculous. I just find it absolutely outrageous the amount of crime that this guy got away with…”

@MegynKelly unloads on Diddy and the not guilty verdict on the most serious counts.

Watch:

In true Kelly fashion, she did not hold back and said she was “disgusted” by the verdict, used profanity, and called the verdict “[..] ridiculous.”

“It is shocking that he avoided a guilty verdict on RICO charges—less surprising on RICO, but particularly on sex trafficking, where the evidence seemed substantial. The fact he threatened, especially Cassie and Jane, repeatedly and resorted to violence when they resisted his demands, was clear,” Kelly stated. “However, it seems the jury accepted the defense’s argument that these women had autonomy and were not coerced into actions.”

“The New York Times reporting from inside the courtroom, ‘Sean Combs is smiling as he shook one of his lawyers’ hands and turned again to look at his family. He put his hands together in prayer and mouth, Thank you at the jury,’ that’s the right thing to say, Sean Combs,” she added. “Yep, this is exactly the right attitude for Sean Combs, who just got away with serious felonies, in my view, he’s guilty as sin, in my view, and this jury just gave him a total pass.”

Comb’s longtime rival rapper 50 Cent posted on Instagram and captioned his post, “Diddy beat the Rio [sic], that boy a bad man. He like the Gay John Gotti.”

         

Kelly and the rapper weren’t the only ones to react; other stars also took to social media.

“I guess a jury just never wants to believe that a woman stays because of power and coercion- wow – they just think women stay because what? Money – fame – ‘they love the abuse’ – what a [..] joke – this decision got me angry #cassie,” Rosie O’Donnell wrote on Instagram.

Outspoken critic singer Aubrey O’Day, once part of the Danity Kane group, said the verdict made her physically sick.

“Oh my god. Not guilty on Cassie, not guilty on RICO,” O’Day said, reacting in real-time to the verdict. “No way Jane is going to be guilty. Oh, this makes me physically ill. Cassie probably feels so horrible. I’m gonna vomit.”

“Fox and Friends” host Lawrence Jones III had a different approach, pointing out where things went south for the prosecution.

“I called it. This was a terribly prosecuted case by the SDNY [United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York],” Jones wrote on X. “They never made the case that trafficking was involved. As for RICO…. they weren’t even close. #Diddy.”

“When victims claimed to have willingly participated, the case was dead. #diddy,” he added in a second post.

As RedState reported on Wednesday, the jury finally reached a verdict on all five counts, returning a shocking decision, finding the disgraced music mogul guilty on just two of them.

As our sister site Townhall reported, the jurors came back with a mixed verdict:

Each of the guilty counts carries a maximum of 10 years in prison.
