In the federal trial of Sean “Diddy” Combs on racketeering and sex trafficking charges, one glaring absence stood out: Kristina Khorrum, Combs’ longtime chief of staff. Despite being repeatedly named in witness testimony and implicated in key aspects of the alleged criminal enterprise—including orchestrating logistics for “freak-offs,” covering up acts of violence, and directly communicating with victims—Khorrum was never called to testify. Her documented role placed her at the operational center of Combs’ activities, making her a critical figure in proving Count 1, the RICO conspiracy charge. Yet the prosecution relied on texts and voicemails instead of live testimony, leaving the jury to speculate about her involvement and intentions. This omission ultimately weakened the government’s effort to prove an organized criminal structure and contributed to the jury’s deadlock on the racketeering count.
The defense seized on Khorrum’s absence to argue that there was no real “enterprise,” framing Combs as a chaotic individual rather than the head of a coordinated criminal group. Without Khorrum to confirm the inner workings of the alleged conspiracy, the prosecution’s case appeared incomplete and less credible. Her testimony could have corroborated victim accounts, clarified intent, and connected disparate pieces of evidence into a cohesive narrative. Instead, the silence around her left jurors with unanswered questions and allowed reasonable doubt to take root. In a case built on proving systemic abuse and hierarchical coordination, failing to call the person who allegedly “ran the enterprise” may have been the prosecution’s most costly strategic error.
