<p>Defense attorney Marc Agnifilo argued that Cassie Ventura was the winner of her relationship with Combs. "She is sitting somewhere in the world with $30 million," he said. "He's in jail." And he tried to make the prosecution of Combs relatable. "They take yellow crime scene tape, figuratively, and they wrap it around his bedroom," he said. "The crime scene is your private sex life." In its rebuttal, the prosecution said the defense "just spent a whole lot of energy trying to blame his victims and the U.S. government for his lies, his threats, and his violence."<br /><br />If you want to read NBC's coverage of the trial, check out our newsletter, “Diddy On Trial”: <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/diddy-on-trial" target="_blank">NBCNews.com/Diddy</a> </p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
