The Trial: New Week, New Juror

The judge in Sean Combs’ trial removed a juror following questions about his candor and whether -- as the judge said -- he “shaded answers to get on and stay on the jury.” An alternate juror took his place. The prosecution could rest its case as soon as Wednesday. And Brian Buckmire answers your questions about why the jury isn’t sequestered, why there are no cameras in federal court and if prosecutors would ever go after alleged victims as co-conspirators.

For decades, Sean "Diddy" Combs was among the most influential entertainers and entrepreneurs in hip-hop. But Diddy’s star began to implode when a video came out showing the music mogul assaulting his then-girlfriend. There had long been whispers about Diddy's aggression. But critics say his influence and relevance kept the rumors quiet. Until now. A raft of new lawsuits detail shocking allegations of sexual abuse and manipulation orchestrated in so-called "freak offs" -- sex parties Diddy allegedly ordered, videotaped and controlled. Diddy now faces federal charges that include sex trafficking. He has denied all wrongdoing and said all encounters were consensual. A new podcast from 20/20 and ABC Audio traces how whispers of abuse came to light and led to Diddy’s downfall. ABC News legal contributor Brian Buckmire takes listeners inside the rise and fall of Diddy, the allegations and his defense with twice-weekly real-time updates during the trial.
