Diddy's drug mule Brendan Paul to take the stand as experts reveal why trial is nearly over
Sean ' Diddy ' Combs alleged drug mule is expected to take the stand in his trial Wednesday as the prosecution wraps up their case. The mogul's lawyers revealed this week they will now only need as little as two days to present their case - a move experts think could signal the defense is feeling optimistic about Diddy's chances of walking free. 'This current change is likely based on the defense's observation of some weaknesses in the prosecution's case. We have to keep in mind that the burden of proof rests on the prosecution,' attorney Nicole Brenecki told Fox News. The defense's announcement came before the jury was shown nearly 20 minutes of explicit video recordings of the 'freak-offs' at the center of the case against the music executive. Diddy, 55, has pleaded not guilty to sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy charges. He has been jailed at a federal lockup in Brooklyn since his September arrest at a Manhattan hotel.
