Sean “Diddy” Combs’ trial in New York City started May 5 after he was arrested and charged with sex trafficking nine months prior.
The Bad Boy Records founder’s legal woes kicked off in November 2023 when his ex-girlfriend Casandra “Cassie” Ventura accused him of rape and abuse. Although they settled the matter just 24 hours later, many others came forward to sue the rapper for similar charges.
Since his arrest, Combs has been held in the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, N.Y. Here’s a look at what he looks like these days, as sketches from inside the courtroom are released.
