Ye Supports Diddy in Court, Lawyers Concerned About Jury

  • Ye attended the trial to support Diddy but was unable to enter the courtroom.
  • Issues with the jury raised concerns for the judge due to inconsistencies in the lawyer's testimony.
  • The testimony involved the discovery of weapons and other items in Diddy's home, raising questions about his lifestyle.

This was reported by The Independent, NBC News.

On June 13, 2025, Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, unexpectedly appeared at the trial of Sean "Diddy" Combs regarding sex trafficking. He arrived at the courthouse to support the music mogul but could not enter the courtroom.

The rapper, dressed in a white suit and dark sunglasses, arrived in a black Mercedes Maybach around 11:20 AM. Members of the public and journalists attempted to catch a glimpse of him. Ye observed the proceedings from a secondary room for overflow, but did not stay long.

He emphasized that he came to support Diddy, whom he had previously openly backed on social media. Ye's appearance coincided with the testimony of a witness, Jane Doe, who recounted events that occurred during the birthday celebration of one of the rappers' girlfriends.

The court also discussed issues with the jury. Judge Aroon Subramanian expressed concern regarding the lawyer, who might not have adhered to court requirements due to inconsistencies in his testimony about his residence. The lawyer stated that he had moved to New Jersey, raising questions about his ability to remain on the jury.

The judge noted that the lawyer could be dismissed if it is found that he did not follow instructions. The prosecution believes his removal is necessary to maintain the integrity of the trial.

Court Testimony

During the trial, witnesses provided testimony about the discovery of weapons and other items in Diddy's home, including 900 bottles of lubricant and 200 bottles of baby oil. A witness also described how Diddy held "royal nights" with women, raising questions about his lifestyle.

Diddy is facing five criminal charges, including conspiracy and sex trafficking, to which he has pleaded not guilty. During the testimony, prosecutors attempted to prove that his lifestyle is connected to the charges.

The trial is ongoing, and the prosecution is expected to conclude its case next week.
