New York | The public knew Sean “Diddy” Combs as a larger-than-life music and business mogul, but in private he used violence and threats to coerce women into drug-fuelled sexual encounters that he recorded, a prosecutor said on Monday (Tuesday AEST) in opening statements at Combs’ sex-trafficking trial.
“This is Sean Combs,” Assistant US Attorney Emily Johnson told the Manhattan jury as she pointed at Combs, who leaned back in his chair. “During this trial you are going to hear about 20 years of the defendant’s crimes.”
