Diddy pleaded not guilty to the new indictment in Manhattan, with U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian noting jury selection for Combs’ trial will begin May 5 for a tentative trial date of May 12.
The new indictment, filed in New York federal court, accuses Combs of maintaining control over employees by forcing them to “work long hours with little sleep” by subjecting them to, or threatening them with, “physical force, psychological harm, financial harm, and reputational harm”.
This is on top of the sex trafficking and racketeering charges that he’s been accused of.
