Diddy‘s long-awaited sex trafficking trial kicks off today (May 5), and jury selection is proving to be a monumental challenge.

The goal is clear find unbiased jurors who can fairly weigh the evidence. But, given the high-profile nature of the case, this task is far from straightforward.

Full story below…

Jurors are already being weeded out for several reasons, with many excused due to the trial’s timing. After all, a few are willing to sit through a two-month trial.

Even more telling, many prospective jurors are being dismissed for failing to overcome their preconceived biases.

Race will play a significant role in this case. It’s uncertain whether men or women will lean more favorably or harshly toward Diddy.

The hotel beating video featuring Diddy and Cassie could be the smoking gun that seals his fate, even though he’s not facing charges for the brutality shown. The video’s power lies in its ability to tell a story that may resonate strongly with jurors.

 Judge Arun Subramanian will intensify the process by questioning jurors deeply about their personal views, biases, and experiences to ensure they approach the case with an open mind.

This trial is shaping up to be a historic battle for the mogul, with opening statements to commence on May 12.
