It’s not clear what’s behind the prosecution’s request, though it has cited a "lack of candor." " Maurene Comey, one of the prosecutors, says, "We did not want to do this. We were compelled to do that." Combs ex-girlfriend identified by pseudonym "Jane" returns for her sixth day on the stand. Combs' defense has attacked Jane “up and down” trying to show she agreed to sex acts, by using Combs messages as alleged proof, according to prosecutors.  Prosecutors tell Judge Arun Subramanian the government expects to rest its case no later than a week from Friday and perhaps as early as Wednesday next week.

Sean "Diddy" Combs' ex-girlfriend, known as "Jane," continued her graphic testimony on the stand, revealing more explicit details about their relationship. She told the court he called her "Crack Pipe"—a nickname she said reflected his obsession with her and their intense sexual encounters. Jane also admitted to using their "hotel nights" as leverage to get what she wanted from the music mogul. In other news, a Los Angeles woman woke to find an intruder standing over her with his pants down. Meanwhile, a judge removed a mother from a Zoom court hearing—for making a sandwich.

Sean “Diddy” Combs’ attorneys cross-examined his ex-girlfriend, “Jane,” who testified that the rapper’s sexual preferences may stem from bi-curiosity. Jane, testifying under a pseudonym, told jurors she still loves Combs, who continues to pay her rent after giving her approximately $150,000 during their three-year relationship. As Jane recalled fond memories—giving Combs foot massages and watching hours of Dateline—the rapper smiled and nodded from the defense table. Jane said the word “cuckold” described what she and Combs engaged in sexually. She explained that a cuck gets “pleasure seeing his woman receive pleasure from the other man” and may harbor bi-curiosity that he explores indirectly through his partner. Jane also said Combs referred to himself, her, and a male escort known as “Paul” by the names of NBA legends. According to her, she was Kobe Bryant, Paul was Shaquille O’Neal, and Combs called himself Michael Jordan. She said the trio referred to themselves as the “trifecta.” On the stand, Jane testified that Combs coerced her into sex acts and threatened to stop paying her rent if she refused. She also said Combs threatened to send sexually explicit videos of her to her son’s father. Combs’ attorneys deny he coerced Jane or Cassie Ventura into sex.
