Sean "Diddy" Combs listens as Maurene Comey questions "Jane" during Combs' sex trafficking trial in New York City on June 9, 2025.

Overview

  • Jane testified that on June 18, 2024, Combs kicked down four doors at her Los Angeles home, punched her in the head, applied a chokehold and then forced her to take drugs before orchestrating a sex session with a male escort.
  • She said Combs paid her rent and legal fees and used that financial dependency to pressure her into repeated drug-fueled “hotel nights” that left her feeling “disgusted” and suicidal.
  • Jane recounted threatening texts in which Combs warned he would release tapes of her with escorts to her child’s father and described fainting upon reading Cassie Ventura’s lawsuit for its striking parallels to her own abuse.
  • Diddy has pleaded not guilty to sex-trafficking, racketeering and transportation for prostitution, and his defense filed a second misconduct motion alleging prosecutors knowingly presented false testimony from a prior witness.
  • Judge Arun Subramanian is expected to rule on the defense’s mistrial motion this week as prosecutors move toward resting their case.
