From “Freak Fest” planning to Chanel bag jealousy to the moment Jane shouted, “I only got trauma!” this was one of the wildest days in court yet. Day 20 of the federal racketeering trial against Sean “Diddy” Combs was an emotional rollercoaster. Diddy’s legal team tried to flip the script… painting Jane’s story as a twisted love affair, not a crime. The jury heard text messages, voice notes, and even audio from a romantic trip to Turks and Caicos — all pointing to a woman who still loved him.

He was the king of Bad Boy Records: a billionaire mogul, a Grammy winner, and the face of luxury in hip-hop. Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing a slew of federal charges in New York, accused of running a criminal enterprise for over two decades. Combs has pleaded not guilty to all charges and maintains his innocence.

On Day 30 of the Karen Read trial, tensions exploded as Dr. Elizabeth Laposata stood firm under fire, insisting John O’Keefe’s injuries were not caused by a car AT ALL. Prosecutors pushed back hard, but the defense doubled down, introducing a final expert who says the science just doesn’t support a taillight hit. With deliberations possibly just days away, the courtroom drama is peaking. 

It’s Day 19 of Sean “Diddy” Combs federal trial, and today, Diddy’s ex-girlfriend, the woman testifying under the pseudonym “Jane” took the stand for a third day, and what she said today was very different than the last few days. In fact, it was EXPLOSIVE.. What she said sounded a lot more like the violence we heard Cassie Ventura describe, and may put Sean Combs a lot closer to the kind of illegal behavior required to prove racketeering in this trial….

Day 17 of the federal trial against Sean “Diddy” Combs took a harrowing turn as Jane Doe, the government’s second sex trafficking accuser, took the stand.

Day 15 of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ federal trial felt less like a courtroom and more like a scene out of a mob movie. A hotel security guard says he was handed a brown paper bag stuffed with $100,000 in cash after Diddy allegedly begged for hotel surveillance footage to disappear.  Then came the money trail… and a longtime executive who froze when asked if he still respected the man he spent nearly two decades working for.
