Sean 'Diddy' Combs Trial: Supporter Escorted Out for Outburst

Originally appeared on E! Online Order was briefly absent from the courtroom. As Sean 'Diddy' Combs sat alongside his defense team during his sex trafficking trial in New York June 3, a supporter was removed by law enforcement after a shocking disruption in the main courtroom, according to NBC News reporters in the room. "Everyone is laughing at Diddy," the woman—who has previously viewed the proceedings from the overflow room, according to the outlet—shouted. 'It's not right what they're doing to him!" She appeared to yell at the Combs, 'People are trying to do you wrong.' After the woman exited the courtroom, the former security supervisor at the InterContinental Hotel in Los Angeles Eddy Garcia took the stand in connection with Combs' assault on ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura at the hotel in 2016. Garcia—who testified under an immunity order, per NBC News—accused the Bad Boy Records founder of paying the hotel security with a brown paper bag of $100,000 in exchange for the footage of the attack, which was subsequently released by CNN last May.

'He kept repeating that I sounded like a good guy and he said I could help with the video footage,' he testified. 'He said it would ruin his career. I apologized and told him I was only a security officer and didn't have access. I did not have the credentials to get to the server room where the original footage was.' Garcia alleged that after telling his then-boss that Combs had offered to pay for the footage, his employer went into the server room and handed him a USB drive. After Garcia allegedly dropped off the memory card to the Diddy – Dirty Money alum, he said he signed an NDA with a $1 million penalty. Afterward, Garcia said that Combs—who has pleaded not guilty to sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, as well as transportation to engage in prostitution—had given him $100,000 to split between himself and two other hotel employees. 'We walked to my vehicle and he asked me how I was going to spend the money,' he testified. 'I said I didn't know and he said, 'Don't make big purchases.' I thought it meant he didn't want to draw attention.' For more live updates from Combs' trial, keep reading. (E! News and NBC News are part of the NBCUniversal family.)

DHS revamps ICE tip line with more staff after Colorado attacks

McALLEN, Texas (Border Report) — The Department of Homeland Security on Monday announced it is revamping its Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) tip line following a weekend attack in Colorado. Twelve people were injured in what the FBI is calling a 'terrorist attack' on Sunday in Boulder, Colorado. UPDATE: Total injured in Boulder attack increases to 12 DHS says that the man arrested in connection with the attack, Mohamed Soliman, is illegally in the United States. Soliman is accused of using a makeshift flame thrower at an outdoor mall to attack a group of people who had gathered in support of Israeli hostages in Gaza. Following the attack, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced Monday that additional personnel will be added to monitor the ICE tip line to collect information on gang members, sex offenders and violent criminals who are illegally in the United States. 'Yesterday's terrorist attack by a suspect illegally in our country, underscores the importance of getting these illegal aliens out of our country,' said DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. 'Secretary Noem is revamping ICE's illegal alien tip line to devote more resources and personnel to help remove these criminal illegal aliens from our country.' Tips on suspicious criminal activity can be called into: 866-DHS-2-ICE, or (866) 347-2423. The tip line operates 24 hours a day and is staffed by trained specialists who take reports from the public and law enforcement agencies.

Colorado Attack Suspect's Family Taken Into ICE Custody

The family of Mohamed Soliman, the suspect charged with throwing Molotov cocktails at people in Boulder, Colo., advocating for the release of Israeli hostages, has been taken into ICE custody, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem announced Tuesday. Soliman, an undocumented immigrant, has been charged with first-degree attempted murder and a federal hate crime in connection with the Sunday attack. Twelve victims, including a Holocaust survivor, were injured, at least two of whom remained hospitalized as of Monday afternoon. 'We are investigating to what extent his family knew about this heinous attack, if they had knowledge of it, or if they provided support to it,' Noem wrote in a post on X. 'I am continuing to pray for the victims of this attack and their families.' DHS did not respond to TIME's request for more information. A DHS official told CBS News that six people, including Soliman's spouse and children, are now in ICE custody. The official said the family would now be deported under expedited removal, which allows immigration officials to remove noncitizens without appearing before a judge. FBI Denver Special Agent in Charge Mark Michalek said during a Monday afternoon press conference that investigators believed that the suspect acted alone. 'If we uncover evidence that others knew of this attack or supported the subject in this attack, rest assured that we will aggressively move to hold them accountable to the fullest extent of the law,' Michalek added. He said the family was 'cooperative' when officials carried out a search warrant Sunday night. Soliman, of El Paso County, is an Egyptian national who entered the U.S. under a non-immigrant visa that expired in February 2023, according to DHS. The 45-year-old suspect filed for asylum in September 2022. Soliman currently faces 16 counts of attempted murder in the first-degree, two counts of use of an incendiary device, and 16 counts of attempted use of an incendiary device on the state level, along with a federal hate crime charge. The state charges alone carry a possible maximum sentence of more than 350 years in prison. He told authorities that he had been planning the attack for a year and wanted to kill all Zionists, according to an affidavit filed on Monday. Michalek said Soliman yelled 'Free Palestine' while he threw a Molotov cocktail towards the crowd of demonstrators. He is being held on a $10 million bond. He is next set to appear in court on Thursday.
