Jury due to begin deliberating in Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ sex trafficking trial
Jurors are set to start deliberating in Sean “Diddy” Combs’ sex trafficking case. The jury of eight men and four women will weigh on Monday charges that could put the hip-hop mogul in prison for life. The 55-year-old Combs has pleaded not guilty. Jurors heard seven weeks of sometimes graphic and emotional testimony about Combs’ propensity for violence and his sexual predilections, including drug-fueled sex marathons dubbed “freak-offs” or “hotel nights.” Defense lawyers acknowledge that Combs could be violent but maintain that the sex acts were consensual. In all, 34 witnesses testified, headlined by Combs’ former girlfriend Cassie.
