A security guard testified Tuesday that the fallen mogul gave him a brown paper bag stuffed with cash in order to buy what he hoped was the only copy of surveillance footage of the assault.

Diddy, who had popped out of the room momentarily, came back carrying a brown bag and a money counter. Diddy started plunking cash into the counter. “In the end, it was $100,000.” Diddy put the cash in the bag and handed it to Garcia. “He asked me if I wanted to count it,” Garcia testified. “I said ‘I trust the machine.’”

The prosecution and defense in Sean "Diddy" Combs' trial agree that this hotel video is the most important piece of evidence.
