Ray J Says Racketeering Charge Makes More Sense For Kardashians Than Diddy

Ray J is railing against the racketeering conspiracy charge Diddy is facing in his federal criminal trial … he says a RICO charge against the Kardashians would be more believable.

Diddy’s longtime friend came to his defense on TMZ’s new weekly series on Tubi, “TMZ Presents: United States V. Sean Combs: Inside the Diddy Trial” … and Ray says he’s having a hard time believing Diddy is guilty of racketeering.

Ray J says he spent a lot of time around Diddy and a lot of the witnesses who are testifying … and based on his experience, he doesn’t see how the RICO charge is warranted.

It’s interesting, and conspiracy theorists will like this … Ray J has a theory that someone is sending a message to Diddy here … and he says the statement is being received loud and clear.

Joe Tacopina also joined us on this week’s episode, and he got into a heated debate with series regular Nancy Grace … with the two sparring over the trial’s racketeering elements, and throwing some personal jabs.

Former Diddy assistant Capricorn Clark’s testimony may help prosecutors close the loop on the RICO charge … and Ray, Joe, Nancy, Harvey Levin, Mark Geragos, Ashleigh Banfield and Eboni K. Williams get into all that and more.
