In today's episode of The Rickey Smiley Morning Show, several high-profile stories were discussed. Cardi B was found not liable in a civil assault trial involving a former security guard, Emani Ellis, who accused the rapper of assault and emotional distress during a 2018 incident at a Beverly Hills OB/GYN clinic. The Los Angeles jury deliberated for about an hour before unanimously ruling in Cardi B's favor, rejecting claims that she spit on Ellis, physically assaulted her, or used racial slurs. Cardi B testified that while the argument became heated and intense, there was no physical contact. The jury sided with Cardi, clearing her of all civil liability.
In other news, Porsha Williams has been granted another legal victory amid her ongoing divorce from Simon Guobadia. A judge ruled that the formal couple's prenuptial agreement would be enforced, meaning Williams will receive $40,000 per month in alimony for 15 months and have her legal fees paid. Lastly, authorities in Prince George's County, Maryland, are searching for 19-year-old DaCara Rose Thompson, who has been missing since August 22. Thompson was last seen getting out of her vehicle at a gas station in Lanham, and her car was later found in Hyattsville with her belongings inside.
