Defense: We still oppose the compilation video.
Judge: It would be better if we had the original. And why don't we?
Defense: It would have been deleted after ten days anyway.

[Judge goes to side with US Marshal. Then]
Judge: For today, you can use the courtroom until 6 pm. I'll try to figure it out for the rest of this week.
Combs' Agnifilo: I would like more time.
Judge: Everyone else, get out of the courtroom. As will the Court

That's it for today

Trial has started

[Before jury comes in]
Judge: What about the witness' conflicts with other romantic partners?
AUSA: The last one was with a colleague, not a girlfriend

Combs' Shapiro: This is impeachment material
Judge: These are assaults under Rule 608(b)? Is that fair?
Shapiro: It's not 608(b)... We're happy to provide the proffer ex parte, it's difficult to explain the fact
Judge: Ex parte proffer is irregular filings too

Combs' Alexandra Shapiro: We want to put in album art for Ms. Ventura's Love a Loser video, it shows she is engaged in business independent of Mr. Combs. You're going to ask, why do you need photos-
Judge: I was going to ask that
Shapiro: AUSAs have done it too

Judge: I don't see the probative value of these defense exhibits. The defense is free to question the witness about them. What about d****?
Combs' Shapiro: It shows the witness was taking ketamine with Cassie, and Mr. Combs didn't like it.
AUSA: It's inadmissible

Judge: Mr. Combs says it's wack, or whack. It goes to state of mind. It is admissible. Anything more? The Doctor Hughes letter?

Judge: Defense has to Monday to respond. Is Dr. Hughes' 2d testimony about coercive control, given what the 2d Circuit said in US v Larry Ray?
AUSA: Yes, under that recent decision.

AUSA: We are working on a different instruction before the testimony of Jane, on the pseudonym issue.
Judge: Just hand it up, if you agree, and I will read it. Does witness Bryana Bongolan need a 5th Amendment immunity order?
AUSA: Yes. [Colloquy, done]

Judge: I'll ask our courtroom deputy to check on our jury.
Jury entering!
AUSA: First, we wish to enter some exhibits into evidence before the jury. "A search of 2 Star Island by HSI found this cellphone," now Para 14, "the exhibits are excerpts of the data."

AUSA: The data shows Twitter exhibits... & texts to D-Roc, who says, We in the security room. Owner: What does Shorty say? D-Roc: Cass is calling studios looking for you. Owner: What did she say on the other thing? Act like I said I am not f***ing with her. D: OK

AUSA: Owner asks, How is her eye? D-Roc: I told everyone a fight broke out in the club. She ain't trippin, she ain't tell nobody, I'm about to call you.
Judge: Thank you. The Government may call its next witness.
AUSA: The Government calls Frank Piazza

Next witness is Frank Piazza, a forensic audio and video editor.

AUSA: Have you testified before?
Piazza: Mostly criminal matters. I've also done some civil, & depositions.
AUSA: Have you been qualified as an expert?
Piazza: 50 times.
AUSA: We move to qualify Mr. Piazza as an expert.
Defense: No objection
Judge: He's an expert

AUSA: How many times have you worked for SDNY?
Piazza: 50 or 100 times.
AUSA: Does that impact your testimony?
Piazza: No. I do 75% defense work.
AUSA: Are you being paid? What is your hourly rate?
Piazza: 295. AUS: Dollars?
Piazza: Yes.

AUSA: You a***yzed cell phone videos, and surveillance videos?
Piazza: Yes.
AUSA: Let me show you.
[Video of toweled Combs kicking Cassie on the ground is shown]
AUSA: What is a frame rate?
Pizza: Frame per second. It can cause a video to have more info per second

Piazza: This cell phone video, video of a video, was shot on an iPhone 6. 30 frames a second. It was not edited or tampered with, I found.
AUSA: Did you reach a conclusion?
Piazza: They are accurate.
AUSA: And the surveillance videos?
Piazza: There were issues

Piazza: The clock was sent to play 30 frames a second, but this was 22 frames. So it played faster. We had to account for that.
AUSA: How?
Piazza: We counted the frames and used software to correct the timing.
AUSA: Were the surveillance videos altered?
Piazza: No

Piazza: Here, the video stream was corrupted. This has caused a distortion.
AUSA: The whole file or just these small pieces?
Piazza: The corruption exists in the video stream. There is a structure called a GOP, a group of pictures. We have predictive frames

Piazza: You don't know this, but a static camera does not re-record a wall that doesn't move each second - it is repeated. Only what moves is recorded. Thank you.
AUSA: Play 55 seconds.
[Video shown: Combs throws Cassie to the ground and kicks her]

AUSA: Did you see pixelation?
Piazza: Yes.
AUSA: Does it represent manipulation?
Piazza: No. You can choose Motion Activity. The camera only turns on when there is motion. But it causes time stamp issues. Go back frame by frame, I want to point something out
