Diddy Acquitted of Major Sex Trafficking Charges Former Chef Claims Trauma, Safety Concerns

News summary

Sean “Diddy” Combs was acquitted of the most serious charges in his federal sex trafficking trial but still faces jail time for two counts of transportation for prostitution. His former personal chef, Jourdan Atkinson, has publicly expressed feeling "extremely traumatized" and unsafe following the verdict, alleging she was assaulted by Combs in 2008 and witnessed abuse toward singer Cassie Ventura. Atkinson shared that she was subpoenaed to testify but was not called to the stand after an emotional reaction, and she accused Diddy's legal team of attempting to intimidate her by offering to cover her legal fees, which she called "witness tampering." She wrote a letter to Judge Arun Subramanian pleading for Combs to remain in custody, fearing he might be released despite the serious allegations. Atkinson and other critics have called the verdict a "grave miscarriage of justice," highlighting concerns about abuse and intimidation in the entertainment industry. The judge has denied Combs' bail appeal, citing his pattern of domestic abuse.
