Diddy Arson Expert Claims Kid Cudi Car Bomb Failed Because It Was Too Fancy


An arson investigator in the Diddy trial claimed the Molotov cocktail used in the Kid Cudi car bombing failed because of the 'silky' material

Defense attorney Alexandra Shapiro claimed the prosecution was trying to imply that Diddy ordered the destruction of the fingerprint cards, which she said was so prejudicial it could influence the jury even if the testimony was struck.
