For weeks, a jury has been listening to serious claims against music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs. The charges? Sex trafficking and racketeering.

The Trial's Intensity

The trial has been intense, with ex-girlfriends and other witnesses sharing stories of violence and wild parties fueled by drugs.

The Verdict Looms

Now, it's time for the jury to decide. Were these just wild parties, as Combs' lawyer argues? Or was it something much darker, as prosecutors claim? The answer could change everything for Combs.

What's at Stake?

  • Racketeering
  • Sex trafficking
  • And more

Prosecutors say Combs controlled women, using drugs and threats to keep them in line. His lawyer says it's all a big misunderstanding, that prosecutors are blowing things out of proportion.

Understanding Racketeering

Racketeering is a serious charge that means running a criminal operation. Prosecutors say Combs had a team helping him, from bodyguards to assistants. They say he used them to cover up crimes like kidnapping and arson.
