Juror in Sean 'Diddy' Combs trial denies celebrity influence in verdict
A juror from the trial of Sean 'Diddy' Combs refutes claims that celebrity status affected the verdict, stating the decision was based solely on presented evidence. The juror emphasized that the deliberation process was fair and impartial.
The juror in the trial of Sean 'Diddy' Combs stated that the jury's decision was 'based solely on the evidence presented.' Combs reacted after being convicted of prostitution-related offenses but acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering charges on July 2, 2025, in Manhattan federal court.
One day after the verdict, a juror spoke out, expressing that the idea of celebrity influence affecting the outcome was 'highly insulting and belittling to the jury and the deliberation process.' The juror emphasized that the decision was made after over two days of deliberation, solely based on the evidence and the law.
The trial involved 34 witnesses, including Combs' associates and two alleged victims, Cassie Ventura and another individual referred to as 'Jane.' Combs was denied bail and faces a maximum prison sentence of 10 years for each of the two guilty counts. His sentencing is tentatively scheduled for October.
