Jurors reached a partial verdict in Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ sex-trafficking trial on four out of five counts – two sex trafficking charges and two for transportation to engage in prostitution.
They could not agree on count one, which was the racketing and conspiracy charge.
This charge alone carries the maximum sentence and could see P Diddy spend the rest of his life in prison.
A note passed to the judge stated: “We have not reached a verdict on count one because we have unpersuadable jurors on both sides.”
The defence and prosecution both asked the Judge for the jury to continue deliberations and reach a verdict in a trial that has lasted more than a month, delivering some harrowing testimony.
In the closing arguments prosecutor Christy Slavik told jurors: “The defendant [Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs] used power, violence and fear to get what he wanted,”
“He thought that his fame, wealth and power put him above the law.”
