    Jury Begins Deliberations in Sean "Diddy" Combs Federal Trial on Racketeering and Sex Trafficking Charges

    A jury of eight men and four women has begun deliberations in the federal trial of Sean "Diddy" Combs, who faces charges including racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation for the purposes of prostitution. The case, officially known as "United States of America versus Sean Combs," is now entirely in the hands of the jury, who will review notes, evidence, and testimony to reach a unanimous verdict on the three separate charges. Combs has consistently denied all allegations and maintained his innocence throughout the proceedings. Unlike some historical trials, the jury in this federal court case is not sequestered during deliberations. The time it takes for a jury to reach a verdict can vary significantly depending on the complexity of the case and the volume of evidence. For context, R&B singer R. Kelly's jury took two days to find him guilty on all nine counts of racketeering and sex trafficking in September 2021. NXIVM leader Keith Raniere's jury deliberated for less than five hours before returning an all-count guilty verdict for racketeering, sex trafficking, and conspiracy in June 2019. Ghislaine Maxwell's jury, in her federal trial for sex trafficking and conspiracy, took five days to find her guilty on most counts in December 2021. Perhaps most famously, the jury in O.J. Simpson's murder trial, which was sequestered for eight months, took just four hours to deliver an acquittal in October 1995.
