Diddy Trial Week 2: New Witness Testimony, Returned Cash & Where The Trial Stands |TSR Investigates
- Sean 'Diddy' Combs faced a federal sex-trafficking and racketeering trial during its second week in Manhattan federal court in May 2025.
- The trial followed charges from 2024 accusing Combs of running a criminal enterprise to exploit women, including alleged abuse and coercion over two decades.
- Witnesses included former assistants who described clean-up duties after 'freak-offs,' testimonies on violent and controlling behavior, expert psychology testimony, and details of seized items such as baby oil and drugs.
- The jury of twelve heard specific claims like Combs demanding $20,000 from Regina Ventura, Cassie's mother, which was later returned without explanation, while defense attorneys challenged witness credibility and emphasized reasonable doubt.
- The trial is expected to continue for five more weeks, with the outcome potentially including convictions for racketeering even if sex trafficking is not proven beyond reasonable doubt.
