US EditionJury deliberations begin Monday in Sean 'Diddy' Combs' federal criminal trial
- Jury deliberations are set to begin tomorrow in the federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial of hip-hop mogul Sean 'Diddy' Combs in New York.
- The trial centered on accusations that Combs orchestrated a long-running criminal operation involving violence and coercion, with former girlfriends providing key testimony against him.
- Prosecutors presented 34 witnesses and showed surveillance videos from 2016 depicting Combs violently abusing one accuser named Cassie, while the defense acknowledged some violence but claimed all acts were consensual.
- Prosecutor Maurene Comey argued that Combs had crossed clear boundaries to such an extent that he no longer recognized them and believed he was above accountability, while defense attorney Marc Agnifilo maintained that the case was not about criminal conduct.
- If convicted on five federal charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering, Combs faces decades to life in prison as the 12-juror panel must reach a unanimous verdict.
