Jurors in the sex-trafficking trial of Sean 'Diddy' Combs are currently hearing various incriminating texts on abuse, drugs, and more, from the defendant's ex-top aide Kristina Khorram. However, there has been a change in the jury panel for this high-profile New York City trial.

Judge Arun Subramanian recently confirmed his decision to dismiss Juror No. 6 from the trial, a move that was expected and opposed by the defense. The juror was replaced by an alternate, ensuring that the proceedings will continue without delay.

Sean Combs, also known as Diddy, was arrested in September 2024 on charges of racketeering, sex trafficking, and more. Testimonies from various individuals, including ex-girlfriends, former employees, and law enforcement officials, are being presented in court. If found guilty, Combs could face life imprisonment.

The dismissed juror, a 41-year-old Black man working at a state correctional facility, provided inconsistent information about his place of residence, raising concerns about deception. The defense had requested a mistrial, alleging racial bias by the U.S. Attorney's office, but the judge rejected the motion.

Following the removal of Juror No. 6, a new juror, a 57-year-old White manufacturing architect, has been appointed. The prosecution is expected to conclude its case soon, with the defense estimating that their case could last up to four weeks.

Despite initial expectations of a trial conclusion by the July 4 holiday, the timeline now appears uncertain.
