Sean \u2018Diddy\u2019 Combs\u2019 trial jury has reached verdicts on four of the five charges against the rapper<\/p>\n
\nThe Bad Boy Records founder, 55, has been facing charges in a New York court including sex trafficking and racketeering and on Tuesday (01.07.25) the jury announced it remains deadlocked on one of them.<\/p>\n
\nAt 4.05pm local time, the judge received a note from the jury stating: \u201cWe have reached a verdict on counts two, three, four and five. We are unable to reach a verdict on count 1 as we have jurors with unpersuadable opinions on both sides.\u201d <\/p>\n
\nCount one relates to racketeering conspiracy under the RICO Act. <\/p>\n
\nThe other counts, on which the jury has agreed, include sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion, and transportation for prostitution purposes.<\/p>\n
\nCombs faces a total of five charges across three federal cases. <\/p>\n
\nThe allegations cover sex trafficking, conspiracy to commit racketeering, and transportation for prostitution. <\/p>\n
\nHe has pleaded not guilty to all charges and denies any wrongdoing. <\/p>\n
\nThe trial began on 5 May, with jury selection involving a careful process to remove any biased jurors.<\/p>\n
\nThe final jury consisted of 12 members and six alternates.<\/p>\n
\nDuring the trial, one juror was dismissed due to questions about his honesty, and an alternate was brought in to replace him. <\/p>\n
\nBefore the jury began deliberations, the judge instructed them on their duties and released the alternates, advising them to remain available should they be needed.<\/p>\n
\nAround two hours into deliberations on Tuesday, the jury sent a note expressing concerns about the ability of juror number 25 to follow the judge\u2019s instructions. <\/p>\n
\nThe judge responded by urging the jurors to continue their discussions and reminded them of the importance of obeying the law and his directions.<\/p>\n
\nBoth prosecution and defence teams have since asked the judge to instruct the jury to continue deliberating on the unresolved racketeering conspiracy charge.<\/p>\n
