Diddy Ex-Assistant Testifies at Sex-Trafficking Trial

During Sean 'Diddy' Combs' federal sex-trafficking and racketeering trial, his former personal assistant David James testified about a 2008 armed confrontation with Suge Knight at Mel's Diner in Los Angeles. James stated that Combs ordered him to return to the diner with three guns after an earlier encounter with Knight, but by then Knight and his entourage had left. James described feeling that his life was in danger, which contributed to his decision to resign from his position. His testimony also referenced other troubling duties and behaviors he observed while working for Combs. The defense has questioned the reliability of James' account due to inconsistencies and a prior physical altercation. The incident is part of broader allegations against Combs, illuminating the tense and dangerous environment around him at the time.
