Diddy Warned Not to Testify in Trafficking Trial, Lawyer Reveals
As Sean “Diddy” Combs faces allegations in a trafficking trial, his legal team is advising him against testifying in court. According to a legal expert, presenting himself as a well-rounded individual could create complexity for jurors processing the claims against him.
“By presenting himself as a well-rounded individual, he may create complexity for jurors trying to process the allegations made against him,” the legal mind explained. “If Diddy can create confusion or cast any doubt on the consistency of the prosecution’s claims, it may lead jurors to hesitate before reaching a guilty verdict.”
The star’s attorneys have been working diligently to build a strong case for Combs to prove his innocence in the ongoing trial. “They did say in court today, they’ve talked to 50 witnesses. We said the same thing. We’ve been doing a parallel investigation every single step of the way. There’s the same kind of universe of people here that he’s been around. We’ve been talking to people to show that we have a case. He’s fighting. He’s innocent, and he’s going to be able to show it,” said one of his legal representatives, Teny Geragos, during an interview with Chris Cuomo on his NewsNation show CUOMO.
