Diddy Seeks Mistrial Over Alleged False Testimony in Shocking Balcony Incident Case

In a dramatic turn of events, Sean "Diddy" Combs' legal team has filed a renewed motion for a mistrial, alleging prosecutorial misconduct in his high-profile federal trial. According to court documents, the defense claims the prosecution knowingly presented false testimony, particularly surrounding a disturbing 2016 incident where a witness, Bryana "Bana" Bongolan, alleged Diddy dangled her off a 17th-floor balcony in Los Angeles.

The testimony of Bongolan, a friend of Cassie Ventura, has come under intense scrutiny. During cross-examination, she struggled to recall key details, including her own state during the alleged incident and whether Diddy and Cassie were even in Los Angeles at the time. Diddy’s attorney, Nicole Westmoreland, pressed hard, pointing out inconsistencies with documented schedules showing Diddy in New Jersey and New York on the dates in question. When asked if one person could be in two places at once, Bongolan’s vague response of “in theory, yeah” only fueled the defense’s argument of perjury.

The defense’s filing argues that such false testimony, if known or should have been known by the prosecution, violates due process and could sway the jury’s judgment. This isn’t just about one shaky witness—the defense accuses the government of using this narrative to paint a misleading picture of Diddy, even leveraging inadmissible hearsay to bolster their case.

Adding to the courtroom drama, other allegations in the trial have included explosive claims from rapper Kid Cudi, who testified about Diddy’s alleged involvement in a break-in at his home and a car fire, supposedly tied to jealousy over Cassie. Diddy faces severe charges, including racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and prostitution-related offenses, with a potential life sentence looming if convicted. He has steadfastly denied all accusations, while witnesses have painted a grim picture of abuse and coercion.

As the trial races toward a July 4 conclusion, the mistrial motion throws yet another wrench into an already chaotic legal battle. Will the court see this as a desperate defense ploy, or a genuine cry for justice? Only time will tell, but the stakes couldn’t be higher.
