Sean 'Diddy' Combs trial live updates: Jury deliberations underway in sex trafficking case

Jury deliberations began Monday in the sex trafficking trial of Sean 'Diddy' Combs. Judge Arun Subramanian delivered instructions to the 12-member panel that will now decide his fate. The 55-year-old hip-hop mogul is facing five criminal counts: one count of racketeering conspiracy; two counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. Combs has pleaded not guilty. If convicted, he could face life in prison. Federal prosecutors say that for decades, Combs abused, threatened and coerced women to participate in drug-fueled marathon sexual encounters called "freak offs" and used his business empire, along with guns, kidnapping and arson, to control his victims. The prosecution rested its case after presenting over a month of graphic testimony from nearly three dozen witnesses. The defense rested without calling anyone — including Combs — to the witness stand. 'The defendant used power, violence and fear to get what he wanted,' U.S. Attorney Christy Slavik said during closing arguments. 'He thought that his fame, wealth and power put him above the law. 'That stops now,' Slavik added. 'It's time to hold him accountable. It's time for justice. And it's time to find him guilty." Marc Agnifilo, Combs's lead defense attorney, argued that Combs is a 'swinger' and a drug abuser guilty of past domestic violence, but not the 'leader of a criminal enterprise' as prosecutors portrayed him. 'He did not do the things he's charged with,' Agnifilo told jurors. 'He did what he did. But he's going to fight to the death to defend himself from what he didn't do.' Follow the live blog below for the latest updates culled from various reporters and news organizations in the courtroom, including ABC News, CNN, USA Today and the BBC. About three hours into its deliberations, the jury sent a second note to Judge Arun Subramanian saying it is concerned that one member of the panel can't follow his instructions. 'We have a juror, No. 25, who we are concerned cannot follow your honor's instructions,' read the note signed by the foreperson, who asked Subramanian to address the situation. The judge and lawyers for both sides are conferring on a response. Shortly after beginning its deliberations, the jury sent a note to Judge Arun Subramanian informing the court that it has selected juror No. 5 to be its foreperson. The foreperson serves as a chairperson or head juror, tasked with facilitating discussions during deliberations, signing any written note that the panel sends to the court and answering when asked by the judge if the jury has reached a verdict. Before court was adjourned for deliberations, defense attorney Marc Agnifilo asked Judge Arun Subramanian if Combs could take books back to his holding cell while he awaits the verdict. Subramanian granted the request. Throughout the trial, Combs has been seen in court holding a copy of The Happiness Advantage by Shawn Achor, which is described by its publisher as "an engaging, deeply researched guide to flourishing in a world of increasing stress and negativity." After the jury left the courtroom to begin deliberations, Judge Arun Subramanian commended the attorneys for both the prosecution and defense for what he called "great lawyering." 'The case was really exceptionally tried by both sides in this case,' he said. After receiving nearly two hours of instructions from Judge Arun Subramanian, jurors have begun deliberating behind closed doors. The jury was provided with a laptop loaded with all of the exhibits shown in court during the six-week trial, including text messages, photographs and videos of the sexual encounters at the heart of the case. There is no timetable for a decision. Subramanian told the 12-member panel made up of eight men and four womenthat they can choose how long to deliberate each day, and to send a note to notify the court when they've reached a verdict. Judge Arun Subramanian is reading aloud lengthy instructions to the jury on how the law applies to each of the charges. Combs is facing five criminal counts. Here is a rough breakdown of those counts and the maximum sentence he's facing for each. Combs has been charged with sex trafficking two former girlfriends — Cassie Ventura and a woman who testified under the pseudonym 'Jane.' Prosecutors allege Combs forced them to participate in the marathon sexual encounters with male escorts, which amounted to "commercial sex acts." Life in prison Prosecutors say Combs arranged for the transport of male escorts who were paid for sex with Ventura and Jane across state lines. 15 years in prison Combs has been accused of 'conspiring with others to conduct and participate in the affairs of an enterprise through a pattern of racketeering activity.' Prosecutors allege that Combs conspired with members of his business empire, including assistants and bodyguards, to commit crimes. To convict, the jury must find that Combs agreed with at least one other member of the alleged criminal enterprise to commit two of eight underlying crimes within 10 years of each other. Life in prison In addition to Combs's family members, including his mother and five of his children, members of the mogul's defense team were seen arriving early at the courthouse in lower Manhattan. Defense attorney Marc Agnifilo, carrying a brown messenger bag, waved off questions from reporters as he walked in. There's also a large media presence, as expected, as jury deliberations are set to begin. Judge Arun Subramanian reminded the jury that to find Combs guilty, the government needs to have proved Combs was guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Subramanian defined "reasonable doubt" as doubt someone could feel after reviewing all of the presented evidence in a court case as to whether everything is 100% authentic and true. Combs's verdict must be found beyond a reasonable doubt, meaning the jury, after reviewing the evidence, hearing the testimonies and listening to the prosecution's arguments, must feel entirely confident that the defendant is either guilty or not guilty without any second thoughts. Subramanian reminded the jurors that they will be examining two kinds of evidence in this case: direct testimony from witnesses and whether the witnesses who testified are actually credible. "There is no magic formula," Subramanian told the group. After receiving the instructions from Judge Arun Subramanian, the 12 jurors will meet to deliberate the case. The jury, which is made up of eight men and four women, must unanimously decide whether Combs is guilty or not guilty on each of the five counts he's charged with. If the jurors cannot unanimously agree on one or all of the counts, they are encouraged to continue deliberating. However, if it seems nearly impossible for the group to agree — which is called a hung jury — it goes back to Subramanian, who has to decide whether to declare a mistrial. Sean Combs's sons, Quincy and Christian, and his eldest daughters Jessie, Chance and D'Lila, arrived at the Manhattan courthouse this morning, alongside Combs's mom, Janice. Christian, 27, released a song under his rapper name "King Combs" with Ye, the artist formerly known as Kanye West, on Friday called "Diddy Free." It features a chorus with the lyrics 'Ain't goin' sleep till we see Diddy free.' Judge Arun Subramanian will be giving the jury instructions before it begins deliberations. The pre-scripted instructions for the jury are expected to take over an hour for Subramanian to read. Last week, Subramanian said the jury will determine its own schedule for the deliberations. After defense attorney Marc Agnifilo wrapped up his four-hour closing argument on Friday, Subramanian told the legal teams he was going to emphasize to the jury that its focus should be on whether the prosecution actually proved each charge with evidence. Last week, the jurors heard lengthy closing arguments by the prosecution and the defense teams. Assistant U.S. Attorney Christy Slavik argued in her closing argument on Thursday: Combs was the "leader of a criminal enterprise" who forced former girlfriends like Cassie Ventura and "Jane" to participate in drug-fueled sex marathons with escorts called "freak offs" and "hotel nights." Slavik revisited Ventura and Jane's testimonies for the jury, where they both claimed to be victims of physical and sexual abuse. "It is time to hold him accountable; it is time for justice," Slavik said. "And it's time to find him guilty." Combs's lead defense attorney, Marc Agnifilo, presented the defense's closing argument on Friday, arguing the government's charges against Combs were inaccurate: While Combs personally used drugs and was guilty of domestic violence, he was not the "leader of a criminal enterprise" nor did he "do the things he's charged with." Ventura and Jane were part of a "swingers" lifestyle, which is why they participated in the "freak offs." "He sits there innocent," Agnifilo said. "Return him to his family, who have been waiting for him." Judge Arun Subramanian is on the bench. He will give jurors instructions this morning before they start their deliberations in the case.
