Part 4: DJ Vlad: Judge Mathis Asks Why He Thinks Diddy Got Too Much Time
Part 1: Judge Mathis on Diddy Getting 50 Months: I'm Surprised it Wasn't More!
--------
Judge Greg Mathis expressed skepticism that President Donald Trump would pardon rapper Diddy. Mathis pointed out Trump’s well-known tendency to hold grudges against those who have crossed him. He referenced Trump’s pattern of prosecuting or targeting political opponents and critics rather than forgiving past offenses. Mathis contrasted this with more traditional political reconciliations, like Trump and Elon Musk appearing cordial after previous feuds, but emphasized that Trump’s brand of politics involves settling scores.
The retired judge also reflected on the purposes of sentencing, emphasizing rehabilitation over punishment and the importance of personal transformation in breaking cycles of crime. He underscored the complexity of mental health issues, referencing the struggles of public figures and those affected by bipolar disorder. Mathis wished for more consistent mental health treatment among individuals like Kanye West, highlighting the broader societal impact of untreated conditions.
