“The defense put on the record the mayoral campaign, the negative ads, during voir dire. But court is aware there are a number of Scientology ads airing on mainstream TV, Scientology is putting out ads of a positive nature, so there have been ads that are both negative and positive.” Boom

from a report in Deadline:

"Later in the afternoon today, CB said the breaking point for her was a 2001 event at the Standard Hotel in Los Angeles, where Masterson was yelling “sexual things, degrading things” at Jennifer Esposito. The supposed screaming by the actor to his Dracula 2000 co-star resulted in Masterson getting “beaten up” by the actress’ husband “out on Sunset,” according to CB.

CB left Masterson and went off with a friend to talk about what had happened, and how “it wasn’t OK.” When the couple did meet up at home, an enraged Masterson called her “white trash” and other derogatory names."

Deadline must have it wrong. Jennifer Espositos first husband was Bradley Cooper but they only married in 2005. She seems sure that this was a newly married couple so I think what she actually said was that Jennifer Esposito was walking with her and her friends when he started bullying a different woman. I'd go with Tony's transcript unless Esposito testifies.

At 8:40 in this video https://youtu.be/MKWPyeg9qnM Tony talks about it and says it was Esposito being bullied and her husband beat Masterson up according to JD3's testimony, but I agree that from the transcript, it's not clear that it was Esposito being bullied, but it seems likely.
