\n\tFunkmaster Flex is weighing in on the Diddy verdict.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Hot 97 radio personality took to Instagram to give his thoughts after the embattled mogul was acquitted on three of five charges, sharing a few lengthy captions. First, he shared a statement made by Cassie Ventura\u2019s lawyer commending her for getting the legal process kicked off by filing her lawsuit against Diddy last year, and while he acknowledged that she\u2019s \u201cbeen through a lot,\u201d he doesn\u2019t believe that she\u2019s a \u201cvictim.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI think Cassie has been through a lot especially at a young age,\u201d his caption began<\/a>. \u201cShe is such a nice person and always gave off good energy! I hope her and her family overcome all of the pain they are going through! The entertainment business is a dangerous environment that everyone is not built for!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tHe then alleged that she originally came forward because of money. \u201cI do think you and your lawyers should give it a rest,\u201d Flex wrote. \u201cYou threatened to drop a book then got paid out to not drop the book! (if you cared so much to get your message out you would\u2019ve dropped the book.) I get it\u2026 it\u2019s a case.. You had to testify\u2026 you 30mil up and 10mil up from hotel! You plan this \u2018lick\u2019 please don\u2019t be mad at me but I don\u2019t see u as a \u2018victim.\u2019 You was young, Diddy made bad choices and you made bad choices! When do u plan to teach girls not to make the same mistakes you made? Just my opinion! @cassie.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThen, in a second post<\/a> in which Flex shared a not guilty graphic from NBC News<\/em>, he wrote that he hoped everyone can \u201cfind peace and move on\u201d while calling the case a \u201cwitch hunt\u201d and said that he would be talking more about the verdict on his Hot 97 radio show on Thursday night.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI hope everyone involved in this case can now find peace and move on,\u201d he said. \u201cDiddy has made mistakes\u2026 feels like he has been judged by a jury and he can move on with his life\u2026 I\u2019ve known Diddy a long time\u2026 I played his parties\u2026 I\u2019ve never seen anything out of order\u2026 this case was such a stretch and witch hunt\u2026 I hope Cassie and Jane doe will find peace with the verdict!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDiddy was denied bail and will have to stay in custody until his sentencing date, which might be in October. Cassie released a statement through her legal team, asking that the judge deny his bail because she believes he\u2019s a threat to those who testified. \u201cMs. Ventura believes that Mr. Combs is likely to pose a danger to the victims who testified in this case, including herself, as well as to the community,\u201d Douglas Wigdor told the judge in a letter.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
