The end of jury selection for Sean 'Diddy' Combs sex-trafficking federal trial in New
York has been delayed until Monday after the judge granted the defense's request.
The rapper, 55, has kept an upbeat demeanor throughout the closed process -
the trial will not be televised because it is in federal court and all recording devices are banned.
Over the last week, Judge Arun Subramanian has been questioning prospective jurors one at a
time to see who can be fair and unbiased.
Combs has watched from his seat at the defense table, scanning the courtroom
for supporters and even nodding and smile to potential jurors.
On Friday, lawyers on each side will be permitted to eliminate several individuals from the panel of jurors — for reasons they usually do
not have to explain. That procedure, which typically takes an hour
or less, produces the final jury of 12 plus alternates.
Jury selection will now conclude Monday
Jury selection will be concluded on Monday instead of Friday after a ruling by judge
Arun Subramanian.
Prosecutors said that they will have an answer on whether Victim
3 will testify by the end of the day.
Diddy's lawyers had asked for the delay, saying that they were concerned that more jurors would get cold feet between now and Monday
and it would be safer to wait until then.
Prosecutors strongly opposed this and said it
should move ahead today because it could cause long delays on Monday
before opening statements.
The judge had leaned towards the delay, saying that if they finished choosing the jury on Monday you got a ‘certainty you're not going to have
to redo jury selection or worse'.

The main players in Diddy's trial
The trial is in the courtroom of U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian. He was appointed a federal judge by President
Joe Biden in 2022.
The prosecution team consists of eight assistant U.S.
attorneys, seven of them women. They include Maurene Ryan Comey,
daughter of former FBI Director James Comey. She was among the prosecutors in the trial of Ghislane Maxwell, who was convicted of luring teenage girls to be sexually abused by Jeffrey Epstein.
Combs' team of seven defense attorneys is led by New York lawyer Marc Agnifilo, who along with his wife Karen Friedman Agnifilo is also defending
alleged health care CEO assassin Luigi Mangione.
Also on the defense team is Atlanta attorney Brian Steel, who represented Young Thug
in a trial that went on for nearly two years before the rapper
pleaded guilty to gang, drug and gun charges.

Two potential jurors had bizarre connections with both
Diddy and the judge
Juror 220 told the court on Wednesday the he went to the

was dismissed after admitting he reposted a meme about Diddy while 'doom scrolling.'
Moments later, Judge Arun Subramanian as juror 317 entered the courtroom, clearing recognizing the man.
The judge then asked the man to reveal their connection - they met while working antitrust class action cases together.
Prosecutors expressed concern juror 317, as an attorney who knows the
judge, could have outsize influence on other jurors.
The defense had no issues with juror 317, but the man was dismissed after expressing concern about a client's needs during the length
of the trial.

The black woman said that she recalled having seen news
articles that said Diddy was ‘trying to get out of jail'.
And she wrote in her jury questionnaire that her mother - a domestic abuse survivor - told
her ‘never to accept physical or mental abuse from anyone'.
But the woman, a middle school teacher, also said some things that appealed to Diddy,
saying that she wouldn't pre-judge him and was skeptical
of some accusers.
‘Just because somebody does one thing doesn't mean they did another,' she said.
She said that ‘sometimes people testify to things that are not necessarily true' because they had ‘jumped on the bandwagon.'

it's a -- it's an observation,' Geragos said.

'I think referring to the prosecution in this case as a six-pack of white women is outrageous.

lawyer anywhere across the nation.'
