Potential jurors for Diddy case asked about sex abuse and celebrities |
As he entered the Manhattan courtroom on Monday, Sean "Diddy" Combs hugged his lawyers as they, and the prosecution, began the laborious task of selecting the 12 people who could free or doom the rap mogul. Jurors were questioned one at a time by the judge, the prosecution and the defense, their stated mission to try to seat a jury in just three days. The slow pace May 5 could put that timeline in jeopardy, as finding jurors who remain unbiased in such a high-profile case could prove challenging. Questions ranged from their history with sexual assault or abuse to their familiarity with such notable names. | Sean 'Diddy' Combs's lead attorney Brian Steel (C) is shown in the courtroom on May 5, 2025 in this courtroom sketch.
