Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs will be returning to court today, with his ex Cassie Ventura’s mum Regina Ventura, a male escort and Combs’ former personal chef set to be called to the stand. Witness David James, who gave his testimony on Monday, will be returning.
The 55-year-old faces a number of charges, including racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and transportation to engage in prostitution.
He was arrested in September and strongly denies all allegations made against him. He has been in prison since his arrest and a number of bail requests have been rejected.
Singer Dawn Richard, who was part of the MTV show Making The Band that was produced by Diddy, appeared in the witness box on Monday. Cassie’s former friend Kerry Morgan also took to the stand on Monday.
