Two weeks into the sex trafficking trial of Sean "Diddy" Combs, witnesses have accused the hip-hop mogul of everything from breaking into a rival's home to taking ecstasy and attempting to intimidate or pay off witnesses in the case.
Combs is not charged with any of these alleged crimes, but legal experts say these allegations could provide powerful fodder for the prosecution's use of a sweeping mafia-busting law that has widened the scope of the case against Combs, the founder of Bad Boy Records who helped turn hip-hop mainstream.
