As he left the courtroom, Sean “Diddy” Combs expressed affection toward onlookers and asked that a message be passed along
Sean “Diddy” Combs addressed onlookers in the courtroom as his criminal trial adjourned for the day, saying “I love you all,” and added under his breath “yeah. Love.”
He then turned to a woman in the gallery and said, “Please let Justin know I’m thinking of him” — seemingly referring to his 31-year-old son Justin Combs. He placed his hand over his heart before exiting the room.
Earlier, Homeland Security Special Agent Gerard Gannon testified about the March 25, 2024 search of Combs’ home in Miami.
Gannon said the search was related to a human trafficking investigation. He said because of the property’s size — approximately 20,000 square feet and including a guest house — around 80 to 90 agents participated.
He testified that agents found items in a closet in the master bedroom, including high heels, sex toys, lubricants, lingerie, and firearm components. “Upper and lower receivers of AR-15s” were recovered, some with serial numbers scratched off, he said.
“It’s a lot more difficult or impossible” to determine the owner of a firearm without a serial number, Gannon testified. He noted that the rifles had some unusual features, including full-auto selectors, and were set to semi-automatic.
Evidence photos and firearm parts were shown to the jury.
Throughout Gannon’s testimony, Combs, dressed in a blue sweater and white button-down shirt hiding his neck tattoo, could be seen shaking his head multiple times.
Combs is facing charges including sex trafficking and racketeering. He has pleaded not guilty.
