Overview

• Federal prosecutors rested their case on June 24 after presenting 34 witnesses over 28 days of testimony detailing alleged sex trafficking, racketeering and coerced “freak offs.”
• Combs’s defense team opted not to call any witnesses, instead submitting exhibits intended to support its contention that all sexual encounters were consensual.
• Sean “Diddy” Combs confirmed he will not testify, telling Judge Arun Subramanian that the decision follows thorough consultation with his lawyers.
• Closing arguments are set to begin on June 26 in Manhattan federal court, after which jurors will receive instructions and start deliberating.
• Combs remains jailed without bail since his September 2024 arrest over witness tampering concerns and faces up to life in prison if convicted on all counts.
