Diddy’s Trial: Jury Makes Decision on 4 of 5 Counts As Rapper Faces Life Sentence

• P Diddy's fate is expected to be known this week as the verdict on four of the five counts against him has emerged
• Following the recent update, there were speculations that P Diddy risks a sentence that could keep him behind bars for life
• The latest update, as many await the ruling on Diddy's case, has stirred reactions from many social media users

Popular American rapper and music mogul Sean 'Diddy' Combs' fate is expected to be revealed this week as the 12 jurors in his sex-trafficking trial continue their deliberations.

According to the reports, the jury reached a partial verdict on Tuesday, July 1 in the sex trafficking trial of Diddy.

However, the jury has been unable to agree on the most serious charge the music star is facing, racketeering.

A note from the jury to Judge Arun Subramanian did not disclose if the verdict on four of the five counts against Diddy was guilty or not guilty.

“We have reached a verdict on counts 2, 3, 4, and 5. We are unable to reach a verdict on count 1 as we have jurors with unpersuadable opinions on both sides,” the jury note said.

Count one is the racketeering charge, which accuses Diddy of being the ringleader of a criminal organisation that forced women into coercive sex marathons with escorts.

The Mirror UK reported that it carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.

In addition to racketeering, Combs faces two charges of sex trafficking and two charges of transportation for purposes of prostitution.
