Ray J rejected the prosecution’s portrayal of Diddy as a violent predator. Instead, he predicted Diddy’s fast launch and imagined him jetting to Miami to benefit from the Fourth of July. That prediction fell aside when the choose denied bail, ordering Combs to remain behind bars till his October sentencing.

In his alternate with TMZ hosts Harvey Levin and Charles Latibeaudiere, Ray J described the case as a warning to public figures, although not one prone to cease comparable conduct. He recommended the decision might spark extra claims towards highly effective individuals when relationships flip bitter.

Ray J urged Diddy to think about stepping again and letting his sons take the reins as they stood by him all through the ordeal. He doubted Diddy would rush to occasion upon launch. Instead, Ray J mentioned he centered on supporting his buddy’s legacy, maintaining Diddy’s music streams lively since early morning.
