The multi-hyphenate mogul has made living the high life his brand. Now prosecutors aim to seize much of it under federal asset forfeiture laws.

“The court calls Casandra Ventura,” a clerk called out

Hip-hop mogul Sean Combs is on trial for sex trafficking, racketeering, and other charges. Here's everything to know about the rapper's trial, including how much time he's facing.

On the stand in court Tuesday, Cassie alleged Combs would "bash my head, knock me over, drag me, kick me, stomp me in the head if I was down."

Prosecutors in "United States v Combs" say accused's latest request to the judge will risk a "chilling effect" on victim-witnesses if granted.

Cassandra "Cassie" Ventura wasn't swooning when Sean “Diddy” Combs kissed her for the first time. The R&B singer told jurors at his high-profile federal sex crimes trial on Tuesday, May 13, that when Combs kissed her in August 2007 on her 21st birthday in Las Vegas after a VMA event that she cried.

Lawyers for Misa Hylton, who previously showed support for Diddy accuser Cassie, said that she was at the trial to support her son with the music mogul.
