Sean "Diddy" Combs' federal racketeering and s*x trafficking trial has entered week 6. According to NBC, on Monday, the prosecution called a "summary witness," Ananya Sankar, to the stand. Sankar is a paralegal for the US Attorney's office. She told the jury she reviewed a plethora of pages containing texts, call records, and audio files, among other evidence.
According to CNN, Sankar will submit summary charts and assist in bringing clarity to the matter. The jury was shown photos recovered from Kristina Khorram, Combs’s former chief of staff. These photos, taken on December 28, 2023, displayed messages on another phone, which Jane previously said she sent to Diddy.
Reportedly, Jane texted Khorram a few hours after these photos were taken.
“He [Combs] just threatened me about my s*x tapes that he has of me on two phones. He said that he would expose me and send them to my child’s father,” Jane texted to Khorram.

The jury also heard the call recordings, which the prosecution said were found on Khorram's phone. The 2 recordings contained a conversation between Diddy and Jane after Cassie Ventura filed a lawsuit against the rapper. The photos recovered from Khorram's phone had some messages sent by Jane to Combs that were presented in the court earlier.
“I don’t believe the lovey dovey stuff. You don’t need to go there for me. I was confused and couldn’t concentrate for three years and feel extremely exploited, heartbroken and manipulated by you,” a message in the photo read.
Details of other messages shown to the jury during the summary witness's testimony in Diddy's trial
On Monday, the jury was also shown some of the text message exchanges between Diddy's chief of staff, Kristina Khorram, and his other assistant. As per The Independent, in one of the messages from 2016, Khorram was discussing Combs' "hotel night" with Ventura.
In the message, Khorram informed an assistant, Dave Shirley, about Combs' "hotel night." The assistant replied:
“Sh*t need to reup on baby oil and sh*t.”
The jury was also presented with another text message in which Khorram was discussing hotel damage charges with Jane and Combs.
“Your damage charges on the one hotel are always high,” one of the texts read.
As per NBC, the jury also saw the text messages between Diddy, Khorram, and Combs' head of security, Faheem Muhammad. It was about picking up drugs for the rapper. In one of the messages, Combs told Khorram to inform Faheem about picking up "15 pills of Molly."
According to CNN, while Ananya Sankar was on the stand, the jury was shown a text exchange between Khorram and Cassie Ventura from May 2017.
“No one deserves being dragged by their hair. I locked the door for my safety,” Ventura texted to Khorram.
Ventura also told Combs' former chief of staff that her belongings are not with her. Khorram responded that she would talk to Combs and try to get her things back. Messages shared between Diddy and his former security guard, who goes by D-Roc, were also presented in the court. After Ventura filed a lawsuit, the former security guard texted Combs to check in with him.
NBC also reported that more messages around February 2024 were shown to the jury that took place between D-Roc and Diddy's former assistant, Mia. D-Roc was trying to convince Mia to talk to Combs, who was avoiding the rapper's call. A text message, in which Combs apologized to Mia around this time, was also presented.
Earlier on Monday, Judge Arun Subramanian dismissed juror no. 6 over the inconsistent answers regarding his residence. An accountant from Westchester County took his place in the jury, who had earlier been in the alternate pool.
