A transcript of a robing room meeting on Tuesday contained the conversation between Judge Arun Subramanian and attorney Mark Geragos.
Later in the day, the judge asked in the robing room meeting if Geragos — whose high-profile clients have included Michael Jackson and the Menendez brothers — was advising Combs “in any way, shape or form?”
Geragos responded that he represents the entertainer’s mother in a matter and has represented Combs and “I do talk with him with great – with great frequency.” The lawyer’s daughter, Teny Geragos, is a key member of Combs’ legal team.
Then, the judge noted that Geragos had said on a recent “2 Angry Men” podcast he hosts with TMZ founder Mark Levin that the prosecution team was made up of six white women and he had referred to them as a “six-pack of white women.”
Yes. Implying the prosecution is racially motivated with no evidence to support it, doing so by calling them a “six pack of white women” is indeed inappropriate. Add onto that the particulars at play here? I’m with the judge, pretty outrageous.
Yeah, but they didn’t.
Depends on the case.
I’d say calling them a “six pack of white women” would never be acceptable in a profession setting (ie a lawyer commenting on a trial his daughter is working for the defense on.)
There’s better ways to phrase it that is far from being so disparaging.
