Diddy trial day 7 full recap 'The Punisher'

So far, 10 witnesses have testified in Sean “Diddy” Combs’ racketeering and sex-trafficking trial. Before breaking for lunch, David James, who used to work as Combs’ assistant, talked about seeing Combs use drugs, setting up hotel rooms for him, and going through lie detector tests and a frightening search. Cassie Ventura’s mother, Regina Ventura, also testified. She said she saw her daughter less often once she started dating Combs, took photos of her daughter’s injuries at one point, and even took out a loan on her home to give Combs $20,000 he asked for. Just before lunch, male escort Sharay Hayes described how he helped create a “sexy scene” involving Ventura for Combs’ entertainment. After lunch, Homeland Security agent Gerard Gannon began his testimony. He’s expected to continue today.
