    Was it Ever Really a RICO Case? Plus, Why Firing Maurene Comey Matters

    The federal trial of Sean “Diddy” Combs is over, but the rap mogul’s legal woes aren't.

Meanwhile, the lead prosecutor in the case, Maurene Comey, was fired this week. Laura joins legal analysts Joey Jackson and Misty Marris for a post-trial post-mortem, and dissects the strengths and weaknesses of the prosecution’s RICO case, what to make of the 66 pending civil lawsuits against Diddy, and what Comey’s ouster has to do with all of it.
