The judge presiding over Sean “Diddy” Combs’ criminal trial warned Diddy that he could be thrown out from the courtroom for the rest of his sex trafficking and racketeering trial.
TMZ reported that Judge Arun Subramanian issued a firm warning to Diddy on Thursday (June 5), threatening to remove him from the courtroom if he continued staring at the jurors. Subramanian called his actions “absolutely unacceptable”.
The judge criticized the 55-year-old music mogul for “nodding vigorously” while staring at the jury. He warned Combs’s lawyers that if he saw it again, it “could result in the exclusion of your client from the courtroom”.
“There should be no efforts whatsoever to have an interaction with this jury,” the judge added.
Combs’ attorneys assured the judge that it would not happen again.
Diddy has pled not guilty to all charges, including sex trafficking and a racketeering conspiracy.
