Download Kanye West surprise visit and judge considers dismissing juror

Rapper Kanye or Ye West paid a visit the courthouse today to support Diddy. He stayed for 40 minutes to watch proceedings.

The judge is considering whether to dismiss one of the jurors after the prosecution called for their removal. The juror gave inconsistent answers about where they live. But while the prosecution has been asking for their dismissal, the defence team want him to stay.

Jonathan Perez, a former personal assistant to Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, gave evidence about his interactions with ‘Jane’, Diddy’s former girlfriend.

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.

The Diddy on Trial podcast is here to investigate the rumours, confront the theories, and give you the answers that you need.
