Three witnesses are called by the prosecution, as week two of Diddy’s trial begins. A warning that this episode contains descriptions of violence. Danity Kane singer Dawn Richard finished her testimony and was questioned by Diddy’s defence lawyers. During a cross-examination, Richard admitted to giving different versions of events. Cassie Ventura's former best friend, Kerry Morgan, claimed she saw Diddy physically abuse Ventura several times. David James, a personal assistant who worked for Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs between 2007 and 2009 told the court that staff at Diddy’s Bad Boy Records viewed him as a ‘king’. Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is on trial in New York, facing federal charges of sex trafficking, racketeering with conspiracy and transportation for prostitution. He denies all the charges.
