A juror in Sean 'Diddy' Combs' federal trial was dismissed due to conflicting residency claims, with concerns raised by the prosecution about his honesty during selection. After a review, Judge Arun Subramanian ruled the juror's inconsistent statements rendered him unfit, despite claims from Combs' lawyer of racial bias in the dismissal. The juror, one of two Black members in the jury, was replaced by a white accountant. The judge dismissed defense allegations of bias, stating no evidence supported such claims.
There's nothing that the juror could say at this point that would put the genie back in the bottle, given the inconsistencies in his statements.
To be perfectly clear, from the outset of this proceeding to the current date, there has been no evidence and no showing of any kind of any biased conduct or biased manner of proceeding from the government.
