Crime Roundup with Nancy Grace: Is Diddy Controlling the Courtroom?

Sean Diddy Combs’ unsettling response to watching ‘freak-off’ tapes in a private part of court catches the attention of those around him in court.

The rap mogul is accused of licking his lips and rubbing his hands together while watching a compromising tape. The embattled music figure reportedly requests additional time to view tapes of his former partner, Cassandra Ventura, engaging in intimate acts with male escorts as he observes. Diddy’s defense attorneys argue that the footage demonstrates the rapper was involved in consensual activities rather than any illegal conduct.

As Diddy’s trial nears its conclusion, he allows full access to Kanye West, his most notable supporter in Hollywood. During Kanye’s initial appearance, the “Gold Digger” rapper was directed to a separate room due to overflow. Following this, Combs includes West on his guest list, and reports indicate that West could make another appearance as the defense lays out their arguments.

Deliberations by the jury might commence as soon as Friday, according to Sean “Diddy” Combs’ attorney, Teny Geragos. Geragos notes that the defense and prosecution are expected to spend at least four hours each on their closing arguments, which might start as early as Thursday.
