In a recent turn of events in Diddy's ongoing s*x trafficking and racketeering trial, prosecution has sought the removal of Juror No. 6, claiming a display of 'lack of candor.' To understand the lack of candor, it is important to understand the duty of candor, which refers to the duty of a public authority to disclose material facts as per US Legal.
Hence, lack of candor refers to the failure of a juror to be honest and truthful while serving on a jury as well as during jury selection. According to E! News' report dated June 11, 2025, lead prosecutor, Assistant U.S. Attorney Maurene Comey, told U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian that she researched the juror, and "it appeared to be a lack of candor with the court that raises serious issues with us."

Comey communicated the same without the jury's presence, adding:
“We were very reluctant to put in this letter. We did not want to do this. We were compelled to do that.”
According to excerpts from the trial reported by NBC News, Diddy's lawyer, Alexandra Shapiro, opposed the removal of juror No. 6. Shapiro said that it was the prosecution's "thinly veiled effort to dismiss a Black juror", adding:
“But if the government is going to put in a letter, you know, we’d like the opportunity to be heard either in writing or tomorrow morning."
The final jury in Sean "Diddy" Combs' trial was selected on May 12, 2025. It comprises 12 people, with a bifurcation of four women and eight men. There are also six alternates comprising four men and two women. The jurors in Combs' trial are in an age range of 30 to 74, and their identities aren't made known to the public.
After going through the prosecution's request to dismiss juror No. 6, Judge Subramanian said that he would address the matter by the end of the week after receiving written submissions from both sides.
Diddy's ex-girlfriend names Yung Miami in testimony: Details explored
A former girlfriend of Sean Combs, who's using the pseudonym "Jane" to testify at the rapper's ongoing trial, detailed her relationship with Diddy and also cited instances of physical violence and abuse.
While taking the stand on June 10, 2025, Jane said that she didn't sign up to date a man who was in a public relationship. Combs' ex-girlfriend reported that she and the rapper allegedly dated from 2021 to 2024. Additionally, rapper Yung Miami and Diddy were linked from 2022 to 2023.
During her testimony, Jane claimed to have seen pictures of Sean Combs with Yung Miami in Turks and Caicos. Dubbing it a "painful" experience, the witness said that she was hurt about "having to see the aftermath of him being with another woman."
Moreover, Jane also claimed that Diddy is curious about bisexuality and that he kept that side of himself away from the public eye. The rapper's ex-girlfriend mentioned that asking his partners to get s*xually involved with strange men, while watching and recording the act was his way of participating in the same.
Alleging that Diddy was "too scared to do the act", Jane claimed this was one of the reasons the rapper made "freak-offs" a regular part of his life.
Amid new revelations making headlines concerning the ongoing trial, Sean Combs has upheld his 'not guilty' stance to charges of racketeering conspiracy, s*x trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution.
