Remember, he videotaped all of these encounters, and the government laid out specific instances where he threatened to release those tapes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In closing arguments last week, federal prosecutors and Combs&#8217; defense team <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/sean-diddy-combs-sex-trafficking-trial-closing-arguments\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">took their last shots<\/a><\/span> at convincing jurors to convict or acquit the Grammy Award-winning founder of Bad Boy Records. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The defendant used power, violence and fear to get what he wanted,&#8221; Assistant U.S. Attorney Christy Slavik said. &#8220;He thought that his fame, wealth and power put him above the law.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She said that he used his &#8220;close inner circle and a small army of personal staff, who made it their mission to meet the defendant&#8217;s every desire, promote his power and protect his reputation at all costs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Defense lawyer Marc Agnifilo countered, &#8220;This isn&#8217;t about crime. It&#8217;s about money.&#8221; He noted that one of Combs&#8217; accusers in the criminal case also sued him in civil court.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He is not a racketeer. He is not a conspirator to commit racketeering. He is none of these things. He is innocent. He sits there innocent. Return him to his family, who have been waiting for him,&#8221; the lawyer told jurors.<\/p>\n<p>In all, 34 witnesses testified, headlined by Combs&#8217; former girlfriends <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/newyork\/live-updates\/diddy-trial-live-updates-day-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Cassie<\/a><\/span> \u2014 the R&amp;B singer born Casandra Ventura \u2014 and &#8220;Jane,&#8221; who testified under a pseudonym. Both women said he often was violent toward them. Cassie said he forced her into hundreds of sexual encounters with paid male sex workers while Jane recounted numerous &#8220;hotel nights.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jurors also saw now-infamous security camera video of Combs beating, kicking and dragging Cassie at a Los Angeles hotel in 2016 and clips from videos of sexual encounters.<\/p>\n<p>Combs <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/newyork\/news\/sean-diddy-combs-trial-prosecution-rests\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">chose not to testify<\/a><\/span>, and his lawyers didn&#8217;t call any witnesses in their defense case. His attorneys elected instead to challenge the accusers&#8217; credibility during lengthy cross-examination questioning.<\/p>\n<p>The defense has acknowledged that Combs veered into violence, but his lawyers maintain that the sex acts were consensual. They contend that prosecutors are intruding in Combs&#8217; personal life and that he&#8217;s done nothing to warrant the charges against him.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"chartbeat\"
