Why Is Diddy on Trial?
Combs is on trial for the following charges: one count of racketeering conspiracy, one count of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, and one count of transportation for purposes of prostitution.
Diddy was accused of leading a sex trafficking ring for years — at least between 2008 and 2024 — using his business empire to allegedly sexually abuse, assault and exploit multiple people. At the end of 2024, the U.S. District Attorney’s Office encouraged the public to come forward with any additional claims against the rapper, noting that their investigation against Combs was “far from over.”Additionally, Diddy was sued by his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura
in late 2023. Though they quickly settled the case that year, an old surveillance video of Diddy dragging and assaulting Ventura surfaced in 2024.

Therefore, it’s possible that Diddy could face anywhere between 15 years to life in prison if he is convicted.
