MORE RICH AND MORE POWERFUL IF
THEY PLAY THE GAME, WHETHER THEY
HAVE A CHOICE OR NOT.
TONIGHT THE NEW YORK POST IS
REPORTING THAT ALLEGED VICTIMS
OF DIDDY HAVE BEEN TALKING A LOT
WE ARE HEARING A LOT OF PEOPLE
IN DIDDY'S ORBIT, NAMES YOU KNOW
, ARE VERY WORRIED.
DEREK PARKER IS A FORMER MEMBER
OF THE NYPD'S RAP INTEL UNIT AND
HE JOINS ME NOW.
YOU HAD DEALINGS WITH DIDDY BACK
IN THE DAY.
WHAT WAS THAT LIKE?
>> I DEALT WITH HIM WHEN HE HAD
PROBLEMS, ASSAULTS AND HE HAD
THE SHOOTING AT CLUB NEW YORK
BACK IN THOSE DAYS SO I WAS
PROBABLY THE DETECTIVE ASSIGNED
TO GO OUT AND INVESTIGATE WHAT
HAPPENED AT THOSE PARTICULAR
LOCATIONS WITH --
>> Jesse: THE WORD IS HE HAD
HIS GIRLFRIEND AT THE TIME
SMUGGLE THE GUN INSIDE THE CLUB.
HE NEVER CAUGHT ANY CHARGES FOR
IT BUT HIS BOY WENT DOWN.
NOW YOU SEE HIM AT THE TOP.
I MEAN, BILLIONAIRE, ALL THE
HITS.
HE'S MATURING EVERYBODY IN THE
BUSINESS, BUT THERE ARE SOME
SINISTER THINGS HAPPENING UNDER
THE SURFACE ACCORDING TO THIS
LAWSUIT.
DID YOU SEE THAT COMING?
>> YES.
WHEN I SAW THE PAYOFF WITH
CASSIE, HOW THAT WAS QUICKLY
TAKEN CARE OF, I KNEW THINGS
WERE GOING TO COME AFTER THIS.
I KNEW THAT THERE WERE GOING TO
BE OTHER PEOPLE WHO WOULD FOLLOW
IN LINE OR PEOPLE HE HAD PAST
RELATIONSHIPS WITH THAT WERE
GOING TO COME FORWARD AND BRING
UP ALLEGATIONS OF HIS CONDUCT
AND THINGS THAT HE'S DONE.
>> Jesse: WHEN YOU HEAR ABOUT
THE SEX TRAFFICKING, THE HIDDEN
CAMERAS IN EVERY ROOM, THE
NARCOTICS, PAYING OFF LAW
ENFORCEMENT, THE AFFILIATION
WITH GANGS, HOW DO YOU INTERPRET
THAT?
>> WELL THAT'S AN ALLEGATION
THAT SOMEONE ELSE MADE ABOUT
WHAT HAPPENED.
THE GUNS AND NARCOTICS AND
THINGS LIKE THAT, THESE THINGS
HAPPEN IN THIS BUSINESS.
IT'S OUT THERE IN THE HIP-HOP
WORLD.
I'VE COME ACROSS A LOT OF CASES
WHERE I'VE HAD ROBBERS INVOLVED
WITH DRUGS AND GUNS AND THINGS
LIKE THAT SO I'M NOT SURPRISED
BY THAT BUT THE GOVERNMENT TOOK
A BIG STEP IN WAITING TO COME
OUT AND DO THIS.
THEY HAD THIS PLANNED BELIEVE IT
OR NOT.
EVEN TONIGHT.
DIDDY'S GIRLFRIEND WAS CAUGHT
DISTRIBUTING DRUGS SO SHE HAS
BEEN LABELED AS INDICATED IN THE
FEDERAL REPORT AS SUPPLYING
DRUGS, SO THIS IS ONLY THE START
OF THIS INVESTIGATION.
A SEARCH WARRANT, NOW THIS COMES
OUT, AND NO OTHER THINGS WILL
COME OUT.
>> Jesse: WHY DO YOU THINK THE
FEDS WAITED THIS LONG?
BECAUSE THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON
ACCORDING TO THESE COMPLAINTS
FOR A LONG TIME.
WHAT TRIGGERED THIS?
DID HE CROSS SOMEONE?
>> YES.
WHAT HAPPENS IS THAT THE FEDS
HAVE DEVELOPED COOPERATORS,
PEOPLE THAT WERE AFFECTED BY HIM
ARE HAD SOME TIME -- TIES WITH
HIM WHERE THEY HAD CRIMINAL
ACTIVITY AND CAME FORWARD AND
GAVE INFORMATION.
SO THE FEDS WANTED TO GO IN AND
GATHER EVERYTHING THEY COULD SO
THEY COULD PRESENT A TIGHT CASE
AND THAT'S WHAT THEY ARE D
