Rapper Kanye West has made an unannounced appearance at the high-profile sex crime trial of Sean “Diddy” Combs.
Earlier in the trial, jurors saw similar photos of firearms, drugs, and lubricant that were seized from Combs' Miami home. Prosecutors argued that the proximity of the guns in Combs' home to items issued for the sex parties, called "freak-offs," demonstrated the coercive nature of the sexual escapades.
Prosecutors moved to dismiss Juror 6 on Wednesday, arguing that they had behaved with a “lack of candor with the court.” Combs’s team called it a “thinly veiled effort to dismiss a Black juror.” Subramanian said he’d discuss the issue today, after the defense has a chance to respond.
Sean “Diddy” Combs’s federal sex-trafficking trial continues on Day 24 with Brendan Paul, a former Syracuse University basketball player, expected to testify.
