WEDNESDAY: Diddy Trial updates, witness testimony resumes in NYC

WATCH LIVE UPDATES DIDDY TRIAL: on the 11th day of testimony in the trial, with lawyers and the judge cautiously optimistic about meeting their goal of handing the case to jurors by the Fourth of July.

Prosecutors called former assistant Capricorn Clark to the stand, where she is currently testifying about her time working for Sean “Diddy” Combs. Clark described grueling work hours—often from 9 a.m. until 4 a.m.—and developing stress-induced alopecia from the pressure. She recounted being threatened by Combs on her first day over ties to rival Suge Knight and later accused by Combs of stealing diamond jewelry, which led to hours of interrogation, a search of her apartment, and repeated lie detector tests.

Clark also testified about Combs’ drug use, saying she saw him take ecstasy and molly about once a week, along with prescription medications. She said a man called “One Stop” typically supplied the drugs in Los Angeles, and that she was asked to procure ecstasy and cocaine on multiple occasions. During a 2006 trip to France, Combs asked her to get cocaine, which she had security guards obtain. Clark said Combs offered drugs to friends and girlfriends and that she sometimes filled prescriptions on his behalf.

She described Combs’ travel habits, including using aliases like “Frank Black” and “Frank White” for hotel stays and traveling with drugs and cameras. Despite the allegations and pressure, Clark said she was never compensated for $80,000 in overtime pay. Earlier today, Combs’ mother arrived at the courthouse, underscoring the personal stakes of the trial.

Prosecutors are continuing to build their case, focusing on Clark and other witnesses, and plan to call a Los Angeles Fire Department investigator to testify about a 2012 fire involving Kid Cudi’s Porsche, which prosecutors allege was deliberately set with a Molotov cocktail. Legal analysts say prosecutors still face the challenge of proving a “criminal meeting of the minds” to establish the racketeering conspiracy charge.
