The verdict in the Diddy trial did more than divide legal analysts—it reignited a cultural debate we thought had already been settled: Are we still in the #MeToo era, or are we witnessing its slow rejection in real time?

In this provocative and timely episode, attorney Eric Faddis joins us to ask whether the jury’s refusal to convict Diddy on sex trafficking and racketeering charges reflects something far larger than one trial. Was this a quiet rebuke of #MeToo itself?

We dig into how jurors today process trauma testimony, particularly in high-profile cases involving powerful men. Did they not believe the victims—or did they simply believe the behavior, while wrong, wasn’t “criminal enough”? And if so, what does that say about where the public conscience currently sits?

Eric brings his dual perspective as both a former prosecutor and defense attorney to tackle key questions:

We also explore whether prosecutors leaned too heavily on cultural cues—assuming jurors would “feel the moment” without hammering home the legal definitions needed for conviction. Eric explains the difference between moral outrage and legal proof, and how one doesn’t always translate to the other in court.

Ultimately, this episode asks whether this verdict was less about Diddy—and more about us. If we don’t recognize psychological coercion and exploitation as crimes anymore, what kind of accountability is left?
