How The Prosecutions Failure To Produce Victim 3 As A Witness Torpedoed Their Diddy Case (7/5/25)

The prosecution’s decision not to call Victim 3 to testify in the Sean “Diddy” Combs RICO trial significantly weakened their case by leaving a critical firsthand account absent from the courtroom. Victim 3 was repeatedly referenced throughout the trial as a key figure whose experiences could have directly corroborated the government’s allegations of a pattern of criminal conduct within the alleged enterprise. Without her testimony, the prosecution lost an opportunity to vividly illustrate the systemic nature of the trafficking scheme, undermining the emotional and evidentiary impact on the jury. Her firsthand narrative could have filled gaps in the timeline and reinforced the credibility of other witnesses, thereby strengthening the connective tissue needed to prove the racketeering conspiracy beyond a reasonable doubt.


Moreover, the absence of Victim 3 deprived the prosecution of a chance to counter defense attacks on witness credibility and to directly confront contradictions or defenses raised by Combs’s legal team. Her testimony would have likely addressed key elements such as coercion, control, and the involvement of multiple participants in the alleged criminal enterprise—crucial to establishing the RICO predicate acts. The failure to bring her to the stand allowed the defense to exploit this void, sowing doubt about the prosecution’s narrative and weakening the cohesive story required for a complex RICO conviction. Ultimately, not having Victim 3 testify created a noticeable evidentiary gap that hindered the government’s ability to fully connect the dots and secure a unanimous verdict on the RICO count.
