After six weeks of shocking revelations, Sean “Diddy” Combs‘ trial is finally nearing its conclusion as closing arguments have already commenced.

A former federal prosecutor not involved in the case has claimed that the rapper’s guilty verdict is “in the bag,” despite the prosecution weakening its argument by not calling the “most crucial witness.”

The prosecution insisted Sean “Diddy” Combs committed racketeering crimes with his company and argued that he also kidnapped his ex-partner, Cassandra “Cassie” Ventura, at a London hotel.

As Diddy’s sex trafficking trial enters its closing stages, a former federal prosecutor is asserting that a guilty verdict is all but assured, despite what they characterize as a “weak” prosecution that notably failed to call the “most crucial witness.”

During the court trial on Tuesday, the prosecution called its final witness to round up what has been a 6-week-long court session full of emotional, explicit, and graphic testimony from more than 30 witnesses.

Legal expert Neama Rahmani claims that the government has done enough to secure a conviction for the “Finna Get Loose” rapper.

“I do believe the prosecution has done enough to convict Diddy, but it really depends on the crime,” Rahmani told The U.S. Sun. “I think prostitution is in the bag. It’s pretty clear that the entertainers were paid, and they were flown across state lines. There’s an interstate nexus.”

Diddy faced charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution, but maintained that he was Innocent of them all.

However, Rahmani claims that the government was able to prove he committed racketeering, which is a broad term for illegal acts committed through a criminal enterprise for profit.

“The next charge that I think they’ve proven is the racketeering, the RICO charge, and I think they’ve proven it because you can get to racketeering even if you lose on sex trafficking,” the legal expert said.

He continued, “You can show a criminal enterprise, and we have Bad Boy Entertainment with Diddy at the head of the enterprise.”

Rahmani went further to explain that what is needed to prove the crime is to show a “pattern of racketeering activity” which “can be sex trafficking, but could also be drug trafficking.”

“It could be extortion. We heard about Diddy shaking down Regina Ventura. It could be bribery, paying a hundred thousand dollars for the hotel surveillance video,” he added. “It could be obstruction of justice. It could be witness intimidation. So there are a lot of ways to get to racketeering.”

Rahmani shared his thoughts on how the government faces a Herculean task trying to prove Diddy guilty of sex trafficking after the court saw texts where Cassie and his anonymous accuser seemed to be willing participants in his drug-fuelled sex orgies known as “freak offs.”

“I think sex trafficking is the hardest charge to prove, and the reason it is is [that] there are many emails and messages where Cassie and Jane seem to be setting up the freak-offs,” Rahmani explained.

“They seem like they’re willing participants, and obviously, the jurors have seen almost an hour of freak-off video, and I’m guessing that parts of those videos at least seem to show that Cassie and Jane were willing participants in the sexual activity,” he continued.

“Now, I believe this is consistent with the psychology of abuse, and we had expert Don Hughes testify why someone may stay with their abuser, but when victims do, it can be hard,” the lawyer added.

Meanwhile, the West Coast Trial Lawyers co-founder shared that prosecutors weakened their case after failing to call Diddy’s former chief of staff, Kristina Khorram, and his former bodyguard, Damion “D-Roc” Butler, to testify.

He slammed the move as a “mistake,” especially as Khoram and Butler were mentioned by prosecutors and almost all the witnesses who testified.

“I think it was a mistake for the government not to compel Kristina Khorram, D-Roc, and even ‘Gina,’ who was victim three, to testify,” Rahmani told the news outlet. “With respect to Kristina Khorram, KK, and D-Roc, they could’ve charged them as co-conspirators in the case.”

“Normally, you would expect the prosecution to lean on people like KK and D-Roc to flip against their former employer,” he continued, adding that the prosecution’s failure to do that is “weak.”

“The fact that they’re not testifying in this trial hurt the RICO charge against Diddy,” Rahmani said.

On September 16, 2024, Diddy made headlines after being arrested on multiple charges.

Ever since his arrest, the rapper has remained at the notorious Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn, New York, despite several bail requests.

Now, as the sex crimes trial nears its end, Diddy risks being sentenced to life in prison if found guilty of racketeering.

He could also face a minimum of 15 years in prison if found guilty of sex trafficking and a maximum of 10 years for transportation to engage in prostitution.
