Diddy Faces Sex Trafficking, Racketeering Allegations

Sean 'Diddy' Combs is on trial for federal sex trafficking and racketeering, with testimony from his former assistant 'Mia' alleging repeated sexual assaults, threats, and abuse. Mia described feeling controlled, manipulated, and threatened with career ruin by Combs, while also recounting physical violence. Former stylist Deonte Nash corroborated claims of violence against ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura and described her relationships with Michael B. Jordan and NFL player Andre Branch, which prosecutors argued showed Combs' possessive behavior. Cassie testified about being coerced into sex with male escorts and subjected to violent outbursts and humiliation. Prosecutors allege Combs ran a sex-trafficking ring using coercion and intimidation. Combs, who denies the charges, faces up to life in prison if convicted.
