The prosecution in Sean "Diddy" Combs's trial made its final case Thursday, arguing the music mogul used a business "kingdom", violence, drugs and fraud to coerce women into unwanted sex acts
"You've learned a lot about Sean Combs," Assistant US Attorney Christy Slavik told 12 New Yorkers on Thursday. "He's the leader of a criminal enterprise. He doesn't take no for an answer."
Combs has pleaded not guilty to charges of sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution.
For four hours, Ms Slavik reviewed seven weeks of evidence, accusing Combs of manipulating women into fulfilling his sexual fantasies with employees' help.
The rapper, wearing a cream sweater, watched, leaning back in his chair at the defence table, while his twin daughters and 85-year-old mother sat a few rows behind.
