A former employee of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, testifying anonymously as ‘Mia’, alleges he sexually assaulted her ‘on more than one occasion’. She also testified about feeling ‘terrified and trapped’ by Diddy. ‘Mia’ told the court that she was in charge of cleaning hotel rooms after ‘freak-offs’, describing them as ‘destroyed’. A warning that this episode contains descriptions of violence, sexual violence and rape. Anoushka Mutanda-Dougherty speaks to Nada Tawfik, the BBC’s New York correspondent and criminal defence attorney Shaun Kent about the testimony from ‘Mia’ and the rest of the week in court. Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is on trial in New York, facing federal charges of sex trafficking, racketeering with conspiracy and transportation for prostitution. He denies all the charges.
