Tensions in Text: A Courtroom Drama

The energy in the courtroom has shifted. Sean Combs no longer looks like a statuesque wax figurine. He is now much more animated, literally jumping out of his seat to look at the evidence screen, there is almost an air of anticipation. 

But why?

For the past 2 days Cassie Ventura, a government witness and victim in this case, has been testifying against Sean Combs. Now, the defense will begin their cross examination. 

Sean Combs’s attorneys will attempt to poke holes in Cassie’s story, discredit her, and show the jurors that she “wanted freak offs.”

Everyone seems to be under the impression that the defense has very slim evidence to accomplish this. Then why is Sean Combs so happy? Do they know something we do not?
