Key Testimony: Audio Tapes and Explicit Video

• 📱 The recording pertained to a sexually explicit video found on an iPad used by Diddy's staff.

• 🔫 A significant number of weapons, including rifles and Glocks, were found in the security room, which the defense highlighted as being confined to that area, not spread throughout the house where children live.
