From Casandra Ventura's 2023 civil lawsuit through the federal trial, sentencing, and appeal.
Casandra Ventura files a civil lawsuit against Sean Combs and related companies in the Southern District of New York, alleging sexual assault and years of abuse.
Ventura and Combs announce a settlement of her civil lawsuit one day after it is filed.
Homeland Security Investigations searches Combs's homes in Los Angeles and Miami as part of a federal investigation.
Combs is arrested on federal charges. Prosecutors announce the arrest and unseal his indictment the following day.
The indictment is unsealed in Manhattan federal court, charging Combs with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, and transportation to engage in prostitution.
A third superseding indictment sets out five counts: racketeering conspiracy, two sex-trafficking counts, and two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.
Jury selection begins before Judge Arun Subramanian in the Southern District of New York.
Prosecutors and the defense present their opening statements to the jury.
The government rests, and the defense presents exhibits and stipulations before resting later the same day.
The government gives its closing argument on June 26. The defense closing and the government's rebuttal follow on June 27.
Judge Subramanian gives the jury its final instructions. The jury begins deliberating on the five charged counts.
The jury convicts Combs on Counts Three and Five, transportation to engage in prostitution involving Casandra Ventura and Jane. It acquits him of racketeering conspiracy and both sex-trafficking counts.
Judge Subramanian denies Combs's request for release on bail after the verdict, keeping him in custody before sentencing.
Judge Subramanian denies Combs's motions for acquittal or a new trial, leaving the two transportation convictions in place.
Judge Subramanian sentences Combs to 50 months in prison, followed by five years of supervised release, on the two transportation convictions. The judgment also imposes a $500,000 fine.
Combs's appeal of his convictions and sentence is docketed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit as case 25-2623.
