Trouble Mounts for Diddy as Key Witness Goes Missing and Link Emerges to Trump Resort Incident
Developments surrounding the upcoming federal trial involving Sean “Diddy” Combs continue to escalate, with a key prosecution witness reportedly missing and a shocking alleged connection emerging between Combs and a man involved in a 2018 incident at a Trump resort.
Prosecutors are currently facing difficulty locating a crucial individual known as “victim number three” in the federal case against Diddy. Jury selection for the trial, set to officially begin on Monday, encountered issues today as prosecutors informed the judge they still cannot get in touch with this unidentified woman or her attorney. We are told that victim number three does not live near New York City, and prosecutors have admitted they are concerned about getting her to show up in person, even if subpoenaed. Despite the uncertainty surrounding this witness, the trial appears to be moving forward, though the judge has reportedly pushed prosecutors to make every effort to contact the woman.
Adding a bizarre layer to the ongoing situation is the reported surfacing of documentation linking Combs to Jonathan Audi, the man who made headlines in 2018 after allegedly storming into the lobby of the Trump National Doral Golf Club, carrying a U.S. flag, ranting about the president, and engaging in a firing exchange with police. Following his arrest, Audi reportedly made numerous claims to police, including that he had previously been a “bedroom slave” held by Diddy.
A long-simmering theory surrounding Audi’s claims appears to have gained traction this week with the reported emergence of an alleged Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) signed by Audi and Combs back in 2014. According to a report, this NDA was allegedly signed in exchange for a $5 million payout from Combs to Audi.
Audi’s ex-wife, Tanya Troutwine, reportedly spoke about the timing of her divorce from Audi, stating it occurred around the same time as the date on the alleged NDA. Troutwine noted that Audi’s life and financial situation changed significantly around this period. Despite reportedly earning only two thousand dollars a month as a fitness trainer and having a negative net worth around the time of their divorce, Audi reportedly went on a significant spending spree less than a month after the divorce was finalized, purchasing five distressed properties for $765,000 in cash over just two months. Troutwine believes her divorce may have been linked to him coming into this large sum of money.
Audi himself reportedly told police during his investigation that his settlement with Combs put him “in a box” and he felt he couldn’t talk because he would be sued.
With jury selection underway and the trial expected to start on Monday, these latest developments add considerable intrigue and uncertainty to an already high-profile case.
