Inside Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ All-Star Defense Team

  • Sean "Diddy" Combs began a federal trial on May 5, 2025, in a New York court, where he faces five charges including racketeering conspiracy and multiple counts related to sex trafficking.
  • The trial arose from allegations that Combs and his associates arranged drug-fueled sex parties and coerced employees and girlfriends to recruit sex workers, with Brendan Paul testifying about managing these events called 'wild king nights' and 'freak-offs'.
  • Paul, Combs' former assistant until March 2024, testified that Combs demanded total obedience, instructing him to enter and exit quickly, break up with his girlfriend, and warned he would lose contact with his family.
  • Prosecutors plan to conclude their case after 34 witnesses by June 23, 2025, with the defense to present for one to two days without Combs testifying, while Judge Subramanian dismissed a juror for lack of candor amid objections from the defense.
  • If found guilty, Combs is subject to federal sentencing guidelines that require a minimum of 15 years in prison and could potentially result in a life sentence, underscoring the gravity of the legal penalties associated with the charges.
