Trials to watch in 2025
An Alabama woman who says she was raped by Jay-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs when she was 13 can proceed anonymously, for now, in her lawsuit against the rap moguls, a judge ruled Thursday. In her written order, Judge Analisa Torres also chastised the lawyer representing Jay-Z for what she described as his combative motions and “inflammatory language” against the plaintiff’s lawyer, calling them inappropriate. Another case that caught national attention is the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO, Brian Thompson. Luigi Mangione, 26, pleads not guilty to state murder and other charges in United Healthcare CEO’s death multiple counts of murder, including murder as an act of terrorism.
