High-profile case enters its final stage after more than a month of testimony from 34 witnesses
Closing arguments began on Thursday morning in the federal sex-trafficking trial of Sean “Diddy” Combs, signaling the final stage of the high-profile case.
Assistant US attorney Christy Slavik began her closing argument by describing Combs as the “leader of a criminal enterprise” who “doesn’t take no for an answer”.
“The defendant used power, violence and fear to get what he wanted,” she said.
The prosecutors are delivering their closing argument first, followed by the defense. Both sides are expected to take roughly four hours, with arguments probably continuing into Friday.
