Day 3 of jury selection in Sean "Diddy" Combs' federal sex trafficking trial was anything but ordinary. From a potential juror admitting to binge-watching Star Wars instead of completing his questionnaire, to another expressing bias after viewing the infamous Cassie video, the courtroom saw its share of drama. Adding to the spectacle, attorney Mark Geragos faced a stern reprimand from Judge Arun Subramanian for referring to the prosecution team as a "six-pack of white women" on a podcast. As the pool of qualified jurors narrows, the question remains: can a fair and impartial jury be seated amidst the chaos?

Jurors were dismissed for everything from daily marijuana use… to fainting at the mention of sex… to watching a Russian comedy video about the case. And prosecutors are already calling out Diddy’s legal team over a podcast rant by Mark Geragos. Ashleigh Banfield breaks down every bizarre twist from inside the courtroom on Day 2 of Jury Selection. He was the king of Bad Boy Records: a billionaire mogul, a Grammy winner, and the face of luxury in hip-hop. Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing a slew of federal charges in New York, accused of running a criminal enterprise for over two decades. The indictment includes sex trafficking, racketeering, kidnapping, forced labor, and obstruction of justice... all tied to what prosecutors describe as a pattern of coercion, violence, and cover-ups. He’s also accused of transporting women across state lines for prostitution and orchestrating “freak-off” sex parties involving drugs and intimidation. Combs has pleaded not guilty to all charges.

A firefighter-paramedic says she heard Read confess, but never never wrote it down.  Meanwhile, a party guest swears she’d been to the house over 20 times… but somehow forgot the family dog. And multiple witnesses say they saw Karen sitting in her SUV,  but not the body prosecutors claim was lying in the snow. Nobody saw anything. Nobody remembers anything. So… is this a cover-up? Or just the worst collective memory in Massachusetts? In this episode of Drop Dead Serious, Ashleigh Banfield breaks down every angle of Day 9 in the Karen Read retrial.
