Why Sean ‘Diddy' Combs Trial Won't Be Televised or Streamed
So, let's take a look at why citizens will not be able to witness the rapper's ongoing courtroom proceedings for the charges against him.
The 'Can't Nobody Hold Me Down' singer's trial will not be televised anywhere since he is battling federal charges. This is because the usage of cameras or any other recording device is strictly prohibited in a federal courtroom. So, there is no way for the media to stream the court's proceedings live.
As stated in US law, the Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 53 restricts any type of 'electronic media coverage of criminal proceedings in federal courts.' The rule also forbids court attendees from clicking photos while the trial is going on. Nevertheless, such practices can take place if a valid decree has been passed beforehand. This is only if a judge deems that it is necessary during 'the presentation of evidence,' or 'for security purposes.'
Nevertheless, those interested in Diddy's trial can catch live video updates of the judicial happenings from networks such as Law&Crime and Court TV. Moreover, certain YouTubers, such as Rotten Mango, have reportedly been present in several court sessions. Thus, they will most likely update their subscribers with the trial's details in their videos.
The latest news to come out of Diddy's trial has to do with his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura's shocking testimony. Taking the stand on Day 3 of the trial, she revealed the problematic nature of her relationship with the rapper. This included an incident where Diddy allegedly asked Ventura to enter an inflatable pool filled with baby oil.

Ex-Harris aide argues more police won't make streets safer, citing experience as a ‘Black woman in America'
MSNBC host Symone Sanders-Townsend pushed back on increased police presence in D.C., claiming during a panel Tuesday that, as a Black woman, she doesn't believe more officers make communities safer—particularly in predominantly Black neighborhoods. Sanders-Townsend, who served as chief spokesperson and senior adviser to former Vice President Kamala Harris before joining MSNBC in 2022, spoke on President Donald Trump's new initiative to stop crime in the nation's capital. Trump announced Monday that he plans to deploy approximately 800 National Guard troops and assume oversight of the Metropolitan Police Department to tackle rising crime in Washington, D.C. The announcement caused shockwaves across media, but some, like MSNBC's Joe Scarborough, hinted that there may be some truth to Trump saying there is a crisis. "There has been a problem in D.C. It's not as bad as it was 2 or 3 years ago, but it's not as safe as Manhattan. It's not as safe as the nation's capital should be. By the way, I've lived in D.C. for 32 years. I can go chapter and verse if you'd like me to," Scarborough said. Sanders-Townsend appeared openly shocked at Scarborough's words and pushed back, citing her experience as having lived in D.C. for the last 10 years and her husband running the Restaurant Association Metropolitan Washington. "It is perceived violence amplified by some actual real acts of violence," she said before adding, "the way I've heard D.C. being described this morning is like it's a city under siege, like it's a dangerous place, clutching your pearls, you've got to keep your bag under your dress when you leave the house. And that's just not true." She said that the conversation is revolving around these instances of "juvenile crime" that Trump is using as a pretext for his "authoritatrain overreach." Sanders-Townsend argued there is just barely enough real crime to make people think that Trump may have some legitimate reason to take such action, but all the while, people are "ignoring the fact that more police officers on the street are not going to fix the issue of juvenile crime." Scarborough urged her to clarify, asking, "You don't think more police make streets safer?" "No, Joe. I'm a Black woman in America," she said. "I do not always think that more police make streets safer. When you walk down the streets of Georgetown, you don't see a police officer on every corner, but you don't feel unsafe." "So what is it about talking about places like southeast D.C., right, Ward 8, if you will, that people say, 'Well, we need more officers to make us safe?' I think we have to rethink what safety means in America," Sanders-Townsend argued.

Teens arrested for Brad Pitt burglary targeted other stars, say LA police
Four teenagers have been arrested over a burglary that left actor Brad Pitt's home ransacked, police said. The suspects are allegedly behind a number of "celebrity burglaries" that targeted the houses of actors and professional athletes, Los Angeles Police Chief Jim McDonnell said. He said the male suspects, two 18-year-olds, a 17-year-old and a 16-year-old, are street gang members, and property stolen in the burglaries was found when police searched their homes. Police did not name those whose properties were targeted, but celebrities including Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, LA Dodgers pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto and ex-LA Football Club striker Olivier Giroud have reported break-ins this year. The investigation started in late June after Pitt's home was raided by a trio of masked thieves. McDonnell said the group hopped a perimeter fence surrounding the Los Feliz home and shattered a window, hopping inside and taking items before fleeing. Police did not confirm the home belonged to the Oscar-winning actor, but the address matched that of a property Pitt bought in 2023. The large three-bedroom house sits just outside Griffith Park, where the famous Hollywood Sign sits. It is surrounded by a fence and greenery that shields the property from public view. Pitt was not home at the time of the burglary and was promoting his new film, F1. The BBC has contacted representatives for the actor. McDonnell said investigators found the suspects were part of a crew that "were burglarizing various high-profile residents throughout the city", which he said included homes of "actors and professional athletes". Last week, authorities followed the four suspects and were able to arrest them on burglary charges, he added. Police did not elaborate on what items were recovered after police searched their homes. McDonnell said burglars like this group had become increasingly smart in their crimes - planting surveillance cameras in nearby flowerbeds or across the street from homes they target to monitor a victim's routine. He said thieves had also been using wi-fi jammers to knock out home surveillance systems and cameras that could alert homeowners or police of a break-in. He noted that celebrities and athletes can be easier targets since their appearances and games are publicised online. He noted, though, that anyone posting on social media about their travels can unknowingly be alerting a potential thief to their location. "We don't really give enough thought to... [while] we want our friends to know where we are and what we're doing, you're telling everybody else then who may be looking to exploit your situation," McDonnell said.
