Covering Week 4 of the SDNY Diddy Trial

Legal analysis with Dr. Phil’s Merit TV and Fox 5 DC

Chatting with Merit Street's Fanchon Stinger about developments in the Sean Combs trial-- namely, the defense team's aggressive, victim-questioning cross of former assistant "Mia." “Mia,” known in the indictment as “Victim 4,” appeared early this week and was cross examined by Brian Steel. Steel called her a liar and introduced evidence that revealed her identity.

Fielding live technical difficulties for the first time at the VERY humid courthouse. Learning curve!

The prosecution wrapped up its case in chief with testimony from "Jane," another alleged victim who dated Sean Combs through late 2023. Fox 5 DC's Guy Lambert and I discussed her testimony, which described similar experiences to other victims: multi-day "freak-offs" without sleep, financial and emotional coercion, drugs (with dubious consent), and compelled encounters with paid sex workers, selected by only Diddy and not allowed to use protection.
