Diddy Trial
Watch the Scene Outside the Courthouse After Verdict
Published
Diddy was just found guilty on two of five counts in his federal trial, which could land him in prison for the next 20 years … and, we’ve got the whole scene outside the courthouse ready for you to watch.
The rapper was found guilty on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution and not guilty on racketeering and sex trafficking charges.
After the guilty verdict, Diddy’s lawyers argued in court that he should be released from custody prior to sentencing … though the government argued against it.
Diddy’s trial began in early May, and we heard testimony from two of his ex-girlfriends including Cassie Ventura and a woman only identified by her pseudonym “Jane.”
Dawn Richard, Kid Cudi and several of Diddy’s former assistants — including “Mia,” another woman testifying under a pseudonym — testified against him during the trial … and, Kanye West even made a brief appearance.

Press conferences will soon begin outside the courthouse … stay tuned with us to see all the action.
