Recap of ‘Diddy’ Trial: ‘Jane’ Says Sean Combs Threatened to Cut Her Off Financially over Sexual ‘Hotel Nights’

  • Sean 'Diddy' Combs faced a federal sex trafficking trial in Manhattan in 2025 involving accusations by his ex-girlfriend 'Jane' and others.
  • The trial arose after prosecutors alleged Combs used violence, money, and coercion to force women into drug-fueled sex shows called 'freak-offs'.
  • 'Jane' testified she took part in long sex encounters with multiple men, called 'hotel nights', which she said Combs forced and filmed despite her objections.
  • Jane described feeling "disgusted," fearing loss of housing since Combs paid her rent, and pleading in texts, "Ever since I opened Pandora’s box, I’ve never been able to close it."
  • The jury reached verdicts on most charges but remained deadlocked on racketeering, while the trial continued with more testimony scheduled for June 9, 2025.
