News:A star witness in the Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs trial is reportedly MIA, throwing the disgraced Bad Boy mogul’s sex trafficking case into chaos

A star witness in the Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs trial is reportedly MIA, throwing the disgraced Bad Boy mogul’s sex trafficking case into chaos.

Opening statements are set to begin next week. But federal prosecutors have been left scrambling.

They can’t find one of the female victims who is central to their case. She does not live in New York where the Combs’ trial is being held.
Lead prosecutor Maurene Comey told US District Judge Arun Subramanian on Wednesday that they are having a difficult time contacting ‘Victim 3’ and her attorney.

Prosecutors had mentioned Victim 3 plans to disclose ‘very personal and explosive details’ concerning abuse she allegedly suffered under Combs.

Comey told the judge that even if they are able to reach the unnamed victim, she ‘may not show up.

Defense attorney Teny Geragos demanded that the prosecution make a decision by the end of the week on whether they still plan to call Victim 3 to testify.

The prosecutions’ admission that they cannot reach one of their star witnesses came as a shock after they told the judge in an April 29 memo that Victim 3 ‘did not wish to use a pseudonym during her testimony.’

Prosecutors filed a third superseding indictment in April that added an additional charge of sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution related to Victim 3.

Combs is facing a total of five counts, including racketeering, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution in connection to four alleged victims who were forced to participate in drug-fueled ‘freak offs’, prosecutors claim.
