Sean 'Diddy' Combs' personal assistant tells jury about guns, drugs and lie detector tests

Sexual Misconduct Diddy - (ASSOCIATED PRESS)

A former personal assistant to Sean “Diddy” Combs gave a glimpse into the hip-hop promoter’s world when he worked for him nearly two decades ago, testifying at the hip-hop promotor's sex trafficking trial about his former boss' use of guns, lie detector tests and drugs.

David James' testimony came in the second week of a trial in Manhattan federal court that is scheduled to last up to two months. If convicted of the charges he faces, including racketeering, the Bad Boy Records founder could be sentenced to at least 15 years in prison.
