This document is a motion in limine filed by Sean Combs' legal team in his federal criminal case (Case No. 24-cr-542) in the Southern District of New York, seeking to exclude the testimony of Dr. Dawn Hughes, a psychological expert the prosecution intends to call. Dr. Hughes is expected to testify about general behavioral patterns of victims and perpetrators of sexual and domestic abuse, which the defense argues would unfairly bolster the credibility of the government's witnesses — including alleged victims — without having evaluated any facts specific to this case. The defense asserts that Dr. Hughes's testimony is not based on a reliable scientific application to the actual circumstances surrounding Combs and instead consists of broad generalizations that risk misleading the jury by presenting “typical” abuse behavior as evidence of guilt.Combs' attorneys argue that Hughes's proposed testimony violates the standards set by Federal Rules of Evidence 702 and 403, which regulate expert witness admissibility. They claim her statements offer no specialized knowledge beyond what jurors already understand — such as abusers exploiting power or victims remaining in abusive relationships — and that she conflates clinical definitions of coercion with legal ones, potentially confusing the jury. The motion asserts that Hughes's testimony is “advocacy masquerading as expertise” and warns it would improperly bolster the credibility of government witnesses under the guise of psychology. The defense urges the court to block her from testifying, citing that her opinions are methodologically unsound and prejudicial rather than probative.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.628425.206.0.pdf

Send us a textFairfax criminal lawyer Jonathan Katz last month joined several hundred attendees at the Boone, NC, Ram Dass mountain legacy retreat. The experience was wonderful, with people connecting at the heart and soul level, in the beautiful mountains and clean air. Our last podcast episode features Raghu Markus, the executive director of the Ram Dass Love Serve Remember Foundation. Among those on stage at this Boone mountain retreat was Nina Rao, who with a beyond beautiful voice chants mantra, sings, and shares her essence. Nina is the yin to the yang of dharma teacher and kirtan star Krishna Das (whom Jon Katz also met at this retreat), with whom she has been closely connected for years. Jon loves the voices and music of both Nina Rao and Krishna Das. In this podcast episode, Nina shares her essence, experiences, ideas and voice. Hear her chant at minute 44:00, and get her great CD's "Anubhav" and "Antarayaami: Knower of All Hearts". Krishna Das's great music includes "Trust in the Heart" and much more. What does Nina Rao have to do with beating the prosecution? Winning in court in important part involves finding and expressing one's voice. In fact, at the Trial Lawyers College, each attendee was expected to sing solo before the group at one point or another. Jon believes strongly in finding calm in the eye of the storm, and he has attended lawyers' mindfulness retreats and previously joined with numerous gatherings of a once active local contemplative lawyers group. Hear Nina talk about living a meaningful life no matter the turmoil, about universal love, wisdom, the gifts of her teacher Sri Siddhi Ma, clarity, and giving voice to our souls. This episode is also available on YouTube. Deeply thanking and bowing to Nina Rao.

Introduction If you're returning to the series after our break, let me extend a warm welcome back as we begin this new season. As you may remember, we're preparing to launch the multi-pronged release of our next project, The NeuroHarmonic Method: Harmonize Your Intelligence – Transform Your Life. This work represents several years of focused effort to create a personal growth resource that the everyday person can understand and apply. It weaves together timeless insights from what has long been called the Wisdom of the Ages with the powerful findings of modern neuroscience, presenting it with enhanced scientific credibility. It is designed to spark meaningful, positive shifts in awareness that elevate every part of a person's life, regardless of previous training or time constraints. And critically, everything in the NeuroHarmonic Method is rooted in what I have studied and practiced for over fifty years. So, this is not just a set of abstract theories; it is verified by practical experience, tested across decades of living through diverse circumstances, and it only grows stronger with time, especially in the areas that matter most. We'll be exploring it in episodes throughout this new season and as a basic introduction, we're going to offer a few of its fundamental ideas for your consideration. As always with our podcast, take what resonates, set aside what doesn't, and notice what changes arise within, because the path of real inner growth is always based on individual self-discovery. Childhood Memories and the Power of Film Personally, in my own life, I've often found that the extraordinary reveals itself within the ordinary. With that in mind, let's look at some ordinary childhood memories of mine, which eventually revealed a set of questions to me that helped form the foundations of the way I began to look at life. So, when I was a boy—maybe six or seven—my older brother would take me to the Saturday matinees at a big neighborhood movie theater called the Benner, which was an easy walk from our house. Now, this was a very different time. For a quarter you could spend the afternoon wrapped in an adventure on the big screen, and for another dime, you could top it off with a generous box of popcorn. The ritual never changed. The music swelled, the house lights dimmed, the curtains parted, and suddenly we were transported into another world—larger than life in every way. Remember, this was still the fairly early days of television, which we watched on a little black-and-white 17-inch screen. And even that was seen to be a marvel! By contrast, in the theater, the images were enormous, the sound powerful, and each year the technology seemed more impressive. In that simple setting, with popcorn in hand and my feet barely reaching the floor, without knowing it, I absorbed certain themes that would shape me for the rest of my life. Yes, there were plenty of cowboy serials and cliffhangers, but every so often a real cinematic treasure would slip into the Saturday lineup. Even though I was far too young to understand them, I sat through classics like Heaven Knows, Mr. Allison, Witness for the Prosecution, and Anatomy of a Murder. Most of it was over my head, but the searing drama, augmented by the scale of the image, the light and the sound, created a total immersion that left quite an impression. Three Science-Fiction Masterpieces Among the countless movies I'd seen, three science-fiction masterpieces stood apart, striking me in a way that went far deeper than the rest. Looking back, I realize they were planting seeds within me — seeds that would eventually grow and inspire a lifelong quest for higher meaning. Those three films were Invasion of the Body Snatchers, The Incredible Shrinking Man, and The Day the Earth Stood Still. In this episode, we're going to take a closer look at Invasion of the Body Snatchers. We'll save the other two films for a later time. But as we do, I invite you to see them not just as vintage sci-fi relics from a bygone era, but as vehicles that ask profound questions like: What is it that truly makes us human? Do we have an authentic self, capable of bringing lasting fulfillment, or are we merely personas we construct to navigate the world? And is there something more to us than just body and mind — something connected to a greater reality, beyond time and space? The Story Unfolds So, Invasion of the Body Snatchers begins in a quiet California town, where people begin to suspect that some of their close friends and relatives suddenly don't seem to be quite themselves anymore. Nobody can quite describe the phenomenon but it's very strange. Outwardly, everything seems normal: people have the same faces, the same voices, the same routines. Yet something essential seems to be missing. Then, a troubling secret is revealed to the audience — the unsettling difference is that these oddly changed people actually have no emotions. No joy, no sorrow, no anger, no happiness — no feelings at all. None. Then an even more sinister revelation is revealed. Alien pods have begun appearing in garages, backyards, and basements. Over a short time, each pod morphs into an exact replica of the person it lies near. Once the replication process is complete and the targeted human falls asleep, the replicant executes a complete takeover. It absorbs everything — memories, thoughts, opinions, habits, even the most intimate gestures. By morning, the original human is gone, replaced by the replicant double. In a seamless transition, it steps into the former person's life as though nothing had changed. Everything is the same except the replicant feels nothing. Although it is hard to tell, the chilling truth is that it is, in essence, a living robot. The Replicant World As the replicant population grows, these new beings begin to communicate among themselves. They proclaim how much better life has become now that all inner feeling has been erased. To them, the truth is obvious: without emotions such as anger, jealousy, greed, lust, and fear, life runs more smoothly. With those troublesome impulses gone, they believe order can finally be established in the world. As the plot unfolds, some of the remaining humans begin to grasp the terrifying truth. Determined not to lose themselves to the emotionless replicants, they fight desperately against the spreading invasion. The tension escalates as the struggle becomes a battle for the very essence of humanity. In the original 1956 film, the story ends on a hopeful note, suggesting that the humans might prevail after all. But in the 1978 remake, the conclusion is far darker. There, the replicant doubles are shown to be unstoppable, destined to take over the world — leaving the human race, as we know it, doomed. Reflections and Questions When I first saw the remake, I was surprised — even unsettled — by the change in the ending. Why would the studio alter the story so drastically? What had shifted in those twenty-two years to move the perspective from hope to despair? Perhaps it was nothing more than market dynamics — after all, fear always sells better than hope. As the old newspaper adage goes: if it bleeds, it leads. But perhaps the shift points to something deeper — a reflection of the cultural mood at the time, or even a stage in the unfolding evolution of human consciousness. Maybe one day that perspective will shift again, back toward hope, as awareness continues to grow. Who knows? Anyway, for me as a child, even through the eyes of a seven-year-old, the film stirred something deeper. It made me begin to wonder about the phenomenon of inner feeling — and what it truly means to be human. Of course, without the burden of negative emotions like anger, jealousy, or fear, life might seem easier. But what about the positive feelings? Would they have to be erased as well? Talk about throwing the baby out with the bathwater! In essence, the peace the replicants proclaimed was deeply chilling. It painted a picture of a society where routines and order remained intact, but individual personhood quietly disappeared. Yes, such a world might look peaceful, quiet, and orderly — filled with well-behaved, human-like figures. But the “peace” being offered was really the peace of the grave: a world of perfect appearances, populated by flawless facsimiles. In reality, they were the walking dead. Fast Forward to Today So, given the warning sounded back in 1957, fast forward to our world today. Where are we now? We may not have alien pods growing in our basements, fashioning replacements for our bodies, but what have we become? And even more importantly, what are we becoming? Look around. So many of us have been absorbed — not by alien doubles, but by the ever-present glow of screens, from the smallest in our hands to the largest on our walls. Meanwhile, our attention is consumed by endless scrolling, fed by social feeds of sound bites, emojis, and dopamine-driven clicks. And all of this is fueled by the constant bombardment of commercial messaging designed to sell us products — a barrage that has now gone completely off the charts. Back in 1957, the average person was exposed to about 350 ads per day, or roughly 25 per hour. Of those, about 20% were problem-solving in nature, framed with a negative bias, while the other 80% were aspirational or lifestyle-based. Now today, the numbers have spiraled out of control. We are now hit with between 8,000 and 10,000 ads per day — about 600 ads per hour. Even more disturbing is the shift in tone: nearly 70% of these are negative, problem-solving ads built on anxiety and fear, while only 30% lean toward the positive. Put another way, each of us is now exposed to about five negatively framed ads every single minute of every waking day. That is a lot of negative messaging. And we don't even have time here to fully explore what that does to our thoughts, our feelings, and ultimately our sense of truly being human. The Human Question So, back to the two questions – what have we become? And what are we becoming? With this tech invasion the bottom line is that we seem to be less and less able to think for ourselves. And less able to feel the positive inner feelings that are at the very essence of our being. Oh sure, we have incredibly easy access to feelings – like anger, fear, outrage, cynicism, and frustration. We're so good at feeling bad that we can get into any negative state at the literal drop of a hat. But tenderness? Compassion? Wonder? It seems like they've been filed away in a dirty room in the basement. It has almost become a way of being — drifting into the haze of robotic conformity, marching to the beat of an overwhelmingly negative bias, and losing touch with the higher understandings that define what it truly means to be human. After all, both timeless wisdom and modern neuroscience remind us of the immense value of being touched once again by the better angels of our nature. The Remedy So, what's the remedy for this modern day invasion of the body snatchers? It is not more noise. Not more programming. Not more frantic searching. The remedy is rediscovery. Rediscovery of our higher nature. Rediscovery of positive thoughts and feelings. Rediscovery of the simple wonder of being alive in the now. And rediscovery of the Indwelling Presence that is always within you, waiting to be uncovered. This is not just poetry. Neuroscience confirms that practices of awareness and presence change the brain itself — strengthening circuits of compassion, focus, and resilience. Here the sages and scientists meet: the truth is that you are more than a body, more than a mind. You are consciousness itself, capable of awakening to your true nature. But of course, knowing this is not enough — it must be experienced. And this is where NeuroHarmonics enters the picture, with its blend of simple but profound understandings paired with practices that are clear, natural, and incredibly easy to integrate. Remember, this path isn't about hard work. This is about transformation. Closing Well, so much for science, as well as science fiction. We'll end this episode here. As always, keep your eyes, mind, and heart open, and let's get together in the next one.

TVC 706.4: Part 2 of a conversation that began last week with Ruta Lee (High Rollers, Witness for the Prosecution, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Consider Your Ass Kissed), entertainment legend and the chairperson emeritus of The Thalians. Ruta recently announced that The Thalians will honor Neil Sedaka with its Mr. Wonderful award at this year's Thalians Christmas gala, which will take place at the Bel Air Country Club Saturday, Dec. 6. The evening will also include a special appearance by Ann Jillian. For tickets and more information, Thalians.org.

Send us a textAfter attending a great mid-August mountain retreat celebrating Ram Dass (born Richard Alpert) with several hundred people -- complete with kirtan with Krishna Das (lead singer of the precursor to Blue Oyster Cult), Nina Rao, David Nichtern (who wrote "Midnight at the Oasis", for starters) and more; talks by Robert Thurman and more; and a deep rapport with many -- Fairfax criminal defense lawyer Jonathan Katz returned from the mountains and found himself repeating old patterns in dealing with such challenges as tailgating drivers. Three weeks later, Jon Katz joined his friend and peace teacher Jun Yasuda for a whole weekend at her battery-recharging peace pagoda in upstate New York, where the days were filled with mindful eating, doing concrete work, stacking wood, driving through the beautiful mountains to Bennington, VT for supplies, and repeatedly chanting the Odaimoku and sections of the Lotus Sutra. By then, Jon got back on track with the importance of focusing on both an open heart and internal peacefulness -- together with keeping touch with like-minded people -- as the way to integrate this practice in dealing with challenging people and situations, where sometimes the most challenging people are really ourselves. This applies well both to his personal life and life as a criminal defense lawyer. Blessing us in joining this Beat the Prosecution episode is Raghu Markus, a friend of the late Ram Dass and executive director of the Ram Dass Love Serve Remember Foundation (donate here and subscribe here to the foundation's extensive learning material). Raghu talks about connecting with Ram Dass and their mutual guide Neem Karoli Baba (Maharaji), how Raghu's father's joining Raghu and Maharaji in India marked a turning point in their father-son relationship, and how Raghu also can be challenged in fully applying his lessons from Maharaji in dealing with challenging situations. This is about constant daily practice, work, and connecting with like-minded people.

The evidence against Bryan Kohberger that has been presented thus far has been very strong as far as circumstational evidence goes. However, that doesn't mean that there is no room for the defense to try to punch holes in the evidence, especially if the only DNA turns out to be the DNA left on the sheath.In this episode, we hear from Tracy Walder who discusses what the DNA found on the sheath tells us and doesn't tell us and how the defense might attempt to attack this evidence.(commercial at 7:59)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Why Bryan Kohberger's DNA Presents Problem for Prosecution (newsweek.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Donna Adelson Trial: Prosecution Closing Arguments DESTROY Her Defense | Hidden Killers Live The prosecution came out swinging — and for two straight hours, Assistant State Attorney Georgia Cappleman laid out every damning detail tying Donna Adelson to the murder of Dan Markel. In this extended segment of Hidden Killers Live with Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels, we watch and react in real time as Cappleman: Humanizes Dan Markel as a father, scholar, and victim. Methodically exposes Donna's obsession with controlling Wendy's divorce and relocation battle. Connects the dots from emails and petitions to coded language like “TV repair” used as murder cover. Highlights Donna's planner with Dan's car and license plate, her financial involvement, and her role in laundering payments to Katherine Magbanawa. Reminds the jury of the “bump” sting and Donna's incriminating wiretap statements — including her admission it “involves both of us.” Drives it home with the powdered donuts analogy, showing that Donna is “covered in sugar dust” of guilt. Our panel pulls apart the strategy, the psychology, and the fallout — including whether Cappleman's closing all but sets up the next dominoes: Wendy and Harvey Adelson. This is not just a summary — it's a blow-by-blow of how the prosecution dismantled the defense and positioned Donna Adelson for conviction. What part of the closing argument hit hardest for you — the TV repair alibi, the planner, or the bump sting? Let us know in the comments.

Donna Adelson Trial: Prosecution Rebuttal Hammers Final Blows | Hidden Killers Live Round three in the Donna Adelson trial belonged to the state — and prosecutor Georgia Cappleman did not hold back. In this final segment of Hidden Killers Live with Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels, we cover the prosecution's rebuttal closing argument and the aftermath as the jury heads into deliberations. Highlights include: Cappleman dismantling the defense's contradictions — from the “TV repair” code to Donna's planner and 44 checks signed with her name. The infamous “two of us” wiretap line, used to tie Donna directly into the conspiracy. The chilling email where Donna claimed Dan Markel's young son wasn't sad about his father's murder — a window into her cold, narcissistic mindset. A fiery finale where Cappleman reminds jurors: it's powdered sugar — she's covered in it. Panel breakdown of the defense's collapse, Donna's narcissism on full display, and speculation on what this means for Wendy and Harvey Adelson. Predictions on jury deliberations, verdict timing, and the psychological fallout of a narcissist facing collapse. Do you think Georgia Cappleman's rebuttal sealed Donna Adelson's fate?

Send us a textWhen Fairfax criminal defense / DUI lawyer Jonathan Katz joined with Ramsey Clark in defending the Plowshares activists for their 2000 criminal jury trial for their depleted uranium action, one of the group's supporters suggested getting ideas from lawyer David Walsh-Little , who served as standby trial counsel to the Gods of Metal Plowshares Five in 1998. In the interim, Jon instead consulted with another lawyer who had defended a slew of political activists. Now, twenty-five years later, Jon Katz for the first time talks with David Walsh-Little, about winning with a devotion to true justice. David and his wife met in college and organized against Gulf War I when Jon was visiting peace protestors during lunchtime across from the White House, three blocks from the corporate law firm where Jon then worked, several months before Jon transitioned to his true love of criminal defense, with a nearby public defender's office. David became a public defender lawyer, and then transitioned to running a legal office from the Viva Catholic Worker House in Baltimore, followed by returning to public defender work at the state and then federal levels, and now in his solo law practice. In law school, David worked for William Kunstler and Ron Kuby. David does not see a secret to beating the prosecution beyond full devotion to our clients and strong experience. He makes a good point about the times that prosecutors ensnare themselves in weakness. David is a progressive lawyer and a true believer in the work he does.

Donna Adelson Trial Preview — Defense & Prosecution Tactics The trial of Donna Adelson — matriarch of the family linked to the murder of Florida State law professor Dan Markel — is about to begin, and it's already shaping up to be one of the most dramatic courtroom battles of the year. In this Hidden Killers special, Tony Brueski and defense attorney/former prosecutor Eric Faddis combine two hard-hitting conversations to examine both sides of the legal fight: Donna's startling consideration of testifying in her own defense, and the prosecution's likely strategy to convict her. First, we explore why Donna might be willing to take the stand — a move most defendants in major murder trials avoid. Is it a bluff? A calculated attempt to control the narrative? Or simply Donna's belief that she can persuade a jury better than anyone else? Eric explains the legal risks, how the defense might try to limit her exposure on cross-examination, and what the prosecution will be ready to hit her with — from financial records to coded phone calls to her one-way ticket to Vietnam. Then, we shift to the state's playbook. With three co-conspirators already convicted, prosecutors will likely lean heavily on the money trail to Katherine Magbanua, Donna's deep involvement in the custody dispute with Markel, and the infamous $1 million “relocation offer.” We discuss how the state will frame motive, means, and opportunity, and how the defense might counter by portraying Donna as an over-involved grandmother rather than a mastermind. #DonnaAdelson #DanMarkel #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #EricFaddis #TrialStrategy #ProsecutionPlan #WitnessStand #FloridaCrime #MurderTrial Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

As Congress prepares for an upcoming public hearing, "UFO World" is inherently impatient when it comes to getting straight answers. Those who follow the topic want the full truth and they want it now. For potential witnesses and whistleblowers, however, the risks of testifying to Congress about secret programs and military deceptions are all too real. In this compelling episode, George Knapp and Jeremy Corbell explore the daunting dangers that confront any insider who wants to tell Congress what they know. Attorney and lifelong UFO researcher Richard Beckwith, who has recently released a history of excessive secrecy and how it has affected the search for truth about UAP, explains why any witness who's held a formal security clearance must be very careful about spilling secrets, even to Congress. There are legal risks, but also significant real life consequences, even if the witnesses are never prosecuted for testifying. Also in this episode, aerospace executive and NASA consultant Mike Gold reveals the confusion surrounding recent allegations about an outbreak of "SCIF Flu" among previous congressional witnesses and why closed door briefings to Congress about UAP programs did not materialize.

Tucked away today at the Hill.com - Stigall noticed a story that explains a whole lot about the Democrats you're hearing on TV screeching that Trump's federal policing of D.C. is authoritarian and vowing to fight him over it if it comes to cities in their states. Also, more bombshell reporting on the Russia hoax - specifically related to the media leaks from former FBI Director James Comey. Prosecution must happen after all we've learned this week. Are universities complying with the Trump administration's demands they scrap DEI? Adam Gillette from Accuracy In Media says even in red-state Iowa, you'll be surprised how they're trying to ignore it. And we break out the left-winger montage of censorship many who listen to this podcast request - as Patrick Hedger of NetChoice.org explains the chilling new law in the UK called the "Online Safety Act" which, as you can imagine isn't about safety at all. It's about speech. Remember - all the bad ideas that start in Europe wind up in the United States if we don't keep our head on a swivel. Plus, Stigall previews a new podcast project and he'd like your input.-For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShow-Help protect your wealth with real, physical gold and silver.
