Jury selection begins on May 5 and opening statements for the trial are scheduled for May 12 .

Diddy 's lawyer Teny Geragos took aim at Lisa Bloom , a lawyer representing a John Doe and Dawn Richard , who was a member of two music groups formed by Diddy , called Danity Kane and Dirty Money .

Richard says she witnessed Diddy repeatedly abusing his girlfriend and endured threats that caused her to fear for her life.

Richard says Combs regularly exploded in rage, hurling cellular phones, laptops, food and studio equipment across the room or at people.

Diddy has pleaded not guilty to sex trafficking charges lodged against him after his September 2024 arrest.
