The bombshell sex-trafficking trial of Sean “Diddy” Combs is winding down after seven grueling weeks of shocking testimony and stunning evidence, with closing arguments kicking off Thursday in Manhattan.
Diddy, 55, is accused of using his fame and fortune to run a decade-long scheme in which he controlled and manipulated his longtime girlfriend, R&B singer Cassie Ventura, 38, and others using violence and threats to force them into acting out his sick, twisted fantasies with “freak-off” sex marathons that went on for days.
The rapper has pleaded not guilty to charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution.
The trial is not televised because cameras are prohibited inside the federal courthouse, but we’re there following all the action — so watch this space for live updates.
